Overview
TaskColony is an on-demand services marketplace in the United States that connects people who need help around the house with skilled professionals handymen, plumbers, cleaners, painters, movers, delivery workers, and more. Customers browse service categories, set their own budget, and book a qualified professional; professionals get a dedicated platform to showcase their skills and grow their business. The app is live on Google Play with secure payments, verified experts, and 24/7 customer support built into the experience.
Role
Built the entire Flutter mobile app covering both sides of the marketplace, customers booking services and professionals offering them. Also managed the cloud deployment and owned the CI/CD pipelines that shipped web and mobile releases to production.
What I built
- A way for customers to find trusted help for everyday problems — repairs, cleaning, moving, errands — without hunting for providers themselves.
- Category-based browsing so users can pick exactly the service they need, from furniture assembly to yard work.
- A budget-first booking flow where customers state what they can pay and a qualified professional takes care of the rest.
- A professional-side experience where skilled workers showcase their expertise, receive jobs, and grow their earnings.
- Secure in-app payments so money only moves through the platform, protecting both sides of every job.
Technical approach
The focus was a fast, trustworthy mobile marketplace experience: simple category discovery, transparent budget-based booking, and automated delivery pipelines so product improvements could ship continuously to a live user base across web and mobile.
- Flutter and Dart mobile client for Android.
- API-driven integration with backend services for bookings, categories, and payments.
- Cloud-hosted deployment supporting both the app's backend and its web presence.
- CI/CD pipelines automating build, release, and deployment for web and mobile, including Google Play publishing.
Challenges
Two-sided marketplace UX
Customers and professionals have opposite needs — one wants speed and trust when booking, the other wants visibility and steady jobs — and both had to live in one coherent app.
Trust between strangers
Letting strangers into each other's homes means trust is everything; verified experts and secure platform-only payments were essential, not optional features.
Shipping continuously to production
Balancing rapid product iteration with the stability expectations of a live Play Store user base required a disciplined release workflow.
Outcomes
- Shipped a complete two-sided services marketplace to production, live on Google Play with 100+ downloads.
- Customers book services at their own budget while professionals gain a dedicated channel for new business.
- Automated CI/CD pipelines for web and mobile removed manual build and deployment overhead.
- Cloud-hosted deployment kept the platform available and releasable for a live production user base.
