I have built a practical LinkedIn lead generation app that supports the full workflow from prospect targeting to outreach preparation.

What this assignment demonstrates:

• ICP-based prospect targeting and search execution
• Structured lead collection from LinkedIn workflows
• Lead qualification logic to reduce irrelevant opportunities
• AI-assisted outreach draft generation
• Reliable local deployment for non-technical use (frontend + backend)
• Security-conscious handling of sensitive auth/session data

Problems solved during build:

• LinkedIn auth/session stability across environments
• Docker startup reliability issues
• Backend startup deadlock issue on macOS
• False positive lead classification improvements

Outcome:

• End-to-end workflow runs successfully
• Backend health checks pass
• System is ready for operator-led lead generation and handoff support

This project aligns with ODL’s objective of creating relevant conversations and sales-qualified opportunities through better targeting, messaging judgment, and process discipline.
