Frontend Software Developer

Company Description
About Us:
Tech Gap Solutions is part of the Tech Gap group of companies with presence in Italy, Romania and USA with a focus on developing end-to-end international IT projects.
The majority of our Frontend development is done for a medical software company in the Lombardy region of Italy. Most recently we have supported them by creating the Frontend to their newly redesigned medical dossier management system. It allows patients, their guests and physicians to have granular access to important documents pertaining to consultations, examinations, and medical plans. It also allows communication between patients and physicians through an embedded custom messaging platform. Overall, this application serves as the main hub for information sharing between physician and patient and creates an efficient level of awareness of the status of any patient while maintaining doctor-patient confidentiality. This piece of software will be used across various hospitals in Lombardy.
Non-profit Projects
The main non-profit customer is the International Traditional Knowledge Institute, USA (ITKIUS), in Tucson, Arizona. Tech Gap Solutions is leading the development of the Creative Knowledge Platform (CKP).
Promoted by UNESCO in 2010, ITKI is an initiative to gather detailed information about traditional techniques and sustainable technologies used by ancient cultures, otherwise known as Traditional Knowledge (TK). The ITKIUS was formed with the support of the University of Arizona and the City of Tucson to further the scope of the ITKI initiatives in North America.
The Creative Knowledge Platform is a project dedicated to helping Knowledge Keepers maintain their traditions. The CKP offers a variety of opportunities to express the uniqueness within each city and to implement a local model to promote its Knowledge Keepers.
The CKP is composed of websites, apps, and virtual-reality environments that engage visitors in a simulated, expanded, and extended experience, guide visitors in the city's spaces, and allow them to retain memory of the activities even after a visit.
The CKP component is now available as the TRusTTM App (search for "trusttm" in the App Store or Google Play). It supports communities of artisans and farmers in leveraging their unique Traditional and Creative Knowledge to reach one of the objectives set by the United Nations 2030 Agenda, Goal 8, "To promote sustained, inclusive and sustainable economic growth, full and productive employment and decent work for all".
