SISA Energy is an innovative energy consulting startup with a mission to reduce the greenhouse gas output of buildings in Canada. We do this by providing our clients with automated energy audits of their building portfolios and a one-stop platform where they can access and visualize their data.

For this project, the students will be assisting the software development team with creating, testing, and shipping a new data collection feature for the SISA platform. This feature will allow our clients to input building data manually, via excel, image, or document, then process the data through our backend and send it to our database.

Since the scope of the project may change, the students’ general responsibilities/goals for this project include:

- Designing the look of the feature with Figma

- Identifying any open-source software or third-party libraries we can use to help with implementing the data collection feature

- Creating the component itself in React and linking it to our Flask backend.

By the end of the project, students should complete the following list of activities:

• Familiarize themselves with our product and its requirements (research into React/Flask, Figma)
• Created basic designs for the data collection feature and helped to implement the feature completely/partially
• Design and create documentation reports on their work throughout the project
• Create a final presentation of the feature they have worked on by project completion
