Role: Intern, Full-Stack + Product · Client: California Superbike School India (owned by Maya Appliances/Vidiem) · Worked directly with the company's AGM (IT) throughout · superbikeschoolindia.com
A once-a-year, 180-slot riding event ran registration through a form, payments tracked in a spreadsheet, and no audit trail. As volume grew, duplicate entries piled up, reconciliation ate hours, and riders weren't sure if they'd even registered.
Kill manual reconciliation. Every rider gets a confirmation. Admin runs the season self-serve. Every admin action is attributable.
| Built | Why |
|---|---|
| Email OTP before form | Blocks spam entries at the door, small extra step for riders |
| Razorpay + NEFT/DD kept as fallback | Fast online payment, but riders trusted bank transfer too. Didn't force everyone onto one rail |
| Admin panel (payment marking, swap, duplicate flag, export) | This is the real product. Leverage is in admin speed, not the rider form |
| Season year as config, not server clock | Client opens next year's registration in October. A hardcoded year would break |
| Redis audit log | Full accountability without over-building a DB table nobody queries long-term |
Reconciliation went from hours of spreadsheet work to real-time payment marking. Confirmation emails killed the "did it go through?" calls. Admin runs open/close and season rollover themselves. Every action is now traceable to who did it and when.
