Occupational Health
Matching Platform

Overview

In Japan, there is a shortage of dedicated platforms for connecting independent occupational physicians and health nurses with the companies that need them. ohmatching.com was built to solve this — providing a direct matching system for both sides of the occupational health relationship.

Designed, developed, and deployed solo — from database schema to frontend to server configuration on xserver's Apache/PHP environment.

• Secure session management with OTP email authentication flow
• PDO prepared statements throughout — SQL injection prevention
• CSRF token protection on all forms

• Custom admin interface for moderation and reporting

Challenges & Learnings

The hardest part was designing UX that works for two very different user types: corporate HR managers and independent medical professionals. Balancing search flexibility with simplicity, and making profile completion intuitive without friction — required iterative design and real user feedback.
