Project

UNDER HERITAGE ( Project no 0353_UNDER_HERITAGE_2_E)

, financed by the European Union under the Interreg VI-A Spain–Portugal (POCTEP) 2021–2027 Cooperation Programme, subject to the following conditions:

Work Plan and Objectives to Reach:

The research activities will focus on the investigation and development of the front-end layer of the UNDER_HERITAGE platform. The main objective is to design and implement an interactive, intuitive, and responsive web interface that enables the visualization, exploration, and interaction with the platform's different functional modules, providing an efficient and User-centered experience.

The selected candidate will be integrated into the CCG research team and will contribute to the following activities:

Analyze functional and usability requirements in collaboration with the UX/UI team and the project partners;

Design and develop the platform's web-based front-end using modern web technologies and frameworks;

Implement reusable, responsive, and user-centered interface components;

Integrate the front-end with the platform's back-end services through RESTful APIs, ensuring seamless interoperability between system components;

Contribute to the definition of the front-end architecture, ensuring scalability, maintainability, accessibility, and performance;

Perform functional, integration, and usability testing, supporting the validation of the platform in real-world use cases;

Prepare technical documentation and contribute to scientific publications and dissemination activities within the scope of the project.

The expected outcomes of the work include the development of a robust and scalable front-end for the AIGENT platform, the successful integration with the remaining platform components, and the validation of the developed solution in collaboration with the project partners, contributing to the project's scientific and technological objectives.

Scholarship Duration: this scholarship will last for 12 months, with an expected start date in January 2027. The scholarship contract may be renewed until the end of the related project.
