Aligned the product with three business goals
Jobufo was designed to simplify recruitment workflows, give candidates more ways to engage, and lay the groundwork for marketplace growth. Every feature we built served at least one of those goals.
Built a Recruitment Marketplace for Jobufo
Jobufo connects employers with candidates through a more flexible hiring experience. Many job platforms rely mainly on a text CV. Jobufo adds three alternatives to the text CV, and it gives employers one place to publish jobs, find people and review applications.
TWS handled the job portal development from scratch, from the first design to the cloud delivery pipeline.

Challenges TWS Team Solved
Added four ways for candidates to apply
Candidates introduce themselves with a traditional CV, a video presentation, an audio message or a telephone interview. The platform includes tools for creating each format.
The business reason is simple. A text-only CV favors people who write well, and it can lose candidates who communicate better out loud. More application formats widen the pool of people who finish an application.
Centralized recruitment workflows for employers
Companies publish vacancies for roles and for projects, search for the right workers, and review applications in the same product. Internal recruitment tools keep the whole hiring flow in one place.
For employers, this means less switching between tools and fewer manual handoffs. It supports the processing time target.
Created one product for two sides of the market
Jobufo serves two interconnected groups: employers who publish vacancies and candidates who search for opportunities. Each group makes the platform more useful for the other, so we designed every feature for both sides at once. A strong two-sided marketplace gains value as both groups grow. This is the base for stronger network effects over time.
Set Up Cloud Delivery for Continuous Product Development
The platform runs on AWS, and CI/CD pipelines make releases repeatable. The front end uses React.js, Redux and Redux-Saga, and the back end runs on Node.js.
This setup lets the owner add features without rebuilding the product, and it gives the team a foundation for continued development.
