Supply Chain Portal

Journey Foods' sourcing platform. Led architecture, the five lens role system, and the API strategy. Converted a 15 module scope into stories a team could build against.

Journey Foods helps CPG brands find, vet, and source ingredients globally. I owned the spec layer end to end: platform architecture, the role system built around five user lenses — brand, consultant, team lead, supplier, developer — and the API distribution strategy. A 15 module scope became sequenced, shippable user stories a team could actually build against.

The hard part underneath is the data. Labels are public. Prices, minimums, and recipes are not. So the platform is built on one golden record per product and ingredient, where every value carries a receipt: where it came from, when, and how much to trust it. Supplier-verified data beats public data, public data beats model estimates, and nothing ever moves down.

The Data API is how that data leaves the building — ingredient intelligence sourcing teams build on, distributed through community led growth rather than sales decks.
