Developed a multi-sheet XLS export engine in Yii2 for financial reporting (dividends, interest, transactions, summaries), including rounding logic, indexing optimisations, and structured sheet formatting for client analysts. Integrated and customised a retail shop management module in CakePHP, implementing client-specific features and modifying core modules without breaking existing functionality. Set up and maintained a custom WordPress site for ProtoExpress, including theme configuration, plugin integration, and iterative design updates based on stakeholder feedback.
