Agile project management at CHEQ Lifestyle Technology, Inc

Abstract

In the last semester of my MBA at BRACU, I had to do an internship program of 3 months at a company. My internship company was CHEQ Lifestyle Technology, Inc. It is the world’s first social payments platform that connects consumers with businesses for amazing and frictionless experience of dining. CHEQ’s universal app can be used to order as well as pay at any restaurant, café, bar, or stadium. The head office of CHEQ is in the USA while the engineering team is in Bangladesh, where I did my internship. During my internship period, I worked on a project. The name of the project was, “CHEQ Payment System”. I worked closely with the Project Manager to learn the skills of managing a software project. I gained theoretical knowledge on Agile, Scrum, and Kanban while technical skills to handle the projects using technologies like Jira, Excel and SQL. Apart from that I learnt managerial communication and estimation skills.
