Work with Shapelets

THE UNIVERSITY

Within the last few years, we’ve taken a great deal of time and effort to work with all different kinds of users. This helps us get a first-hand experience of the ways they interact with a product and how we can improve our product and get feedback from them. We’ve discussed with these users during the prototyping process of the Shapelets solution, and they’ve given us a lot of valuable feedback on how we can improve our product.

The best learning experiences aren’t achieved only through the use of theory. We’ve also learned a lot from observing the activities of our users and just listening to them. This is why we are delighted to invite Berkeley University students Shaamer and Xinyue to work at Shapelets for the next weeks as our guests in our community, the new generation of entrepreneurs that will join Shapelets and Berkeley University.

With the support of the Global Career Center, we selected two students from the prestigious Berkeley University of USA to work with Shapelets for some weeks: Shaamer Kumar and Xinyue Liu. Two young international promises in their respective fields that will have a hands-on experience here at Shapelets getting a sense of how a real start-up works.

Working with students and faculty gives us access to potential product knowledge and feedback. Beyond the concept and idea that Shapelets presents, the team also includes experts in multiple fields, and this experience will contribute to the evolution of the Shapelets platform. We also hope to share knowledge and expertise with the students, who, in turn, can give valuable input to the product. Students who wish to contribute their experience and knowledge can request an invitation!

THE STUDENTS

We didn’t have to look very far. Shaamer Kumar and Xinyue Liu are ideal for this opportunity: they are two exceptional Berkeley University students who can offer experience and insights, and to be frank, they have got the smarts and attitude, and they can easily slide right into a small start-up team.
