The past two years have shown increasing distrust through online division, polarizing protests and strikes, and destructive riots. This problem has gotten worse due to our unverified, disorganized, and time consuming citizen and stakeholder engagement systems, especially social media, focus groups and town halls, and voting. In order to solve the problem of increasing distrust Veras Technologies Inc. is working on creating a verified citizen and stakeholder engagement platform that provides verified, targeted, organized, and ongoing proactive engagement. As Veras grows its users and customers, the company needs to ensure that strong operations, organization systems, and processes are in place so the company can accommodate future growth. Veras will work with intern Ali Khatib to audit, implement, and integrate automatic financial, operational, and organizational systems throughout the company. First, the intern will audit the existing systems and processes to identify vulnerabilities and automation opportunities. Second, the intern will implement innovative systems to help the company scale. Third, the intern will maintain and update these systems. Veras hopes to use this project to audit, implement, and integrate automatic financial, operational, and organizational systems throughout the company to prepare them for user and customer growth. The intern hopes to utilize this project to grow his technical, professional, and interdisciplinary skills that will provide himself a professional work environment foundation to advance the transferable skills needed to have a successful career after post-secondary graduation.
