Prelude

ClearView is a supplemental HR platform that anonymizes candidate information while highlighting objective skills and qualifying experience to reduce bias in the hiring process. Clear View will also be service based, enabling DEI consultants to shadow employer interviews to rate the interviewer and report findings to executive management in an effort to proactively and strategically reduce bias in the interview process.

Diversity Cyber Council has come forward with a vision to enhance inclusion and representation in the tech industry through training, mentoring, networking, and visibility programs.

Goal of the platform

To establish a sustainable and diverse talent pipeline that extends career equity to underrepresented demographics by providing access to competent training programs that lead to direct employment opportunities.

Non-Functional Requirements

After the detailed analysis of business requirements, the team has come up with the below NFRs for the platform

  • Security
  • Availability
  • Scalability
  • Configurabilty
  • Performance
  • Data Integrity
  • Extendability

Since the proposal is a platform, the platform could be composed of several architectural quanta, each with its own architectural style. So, we are not picking a style yet.

Identifying Architectural Quanta

Architecture quantum - An independently deployable artifact with high functional cohesion and synchronous connascence

Quanta identification helps in defining different parts of the platform and the scope of architectural characteristics. We followed a mixture of event storming + actor-action approach to identify aggregates, components and quanta.

  • User quanta
  • Resume tips, anonymisation
  • Resume matching and scoring
  • External HR integration (1 or 2 popular ones)
