- Developed and maintain a school management system (an orbital system to the SIG - Integrated Management System), initially created in CakePHP and later redesigned using Laravel
- Rewrote the entire system from scratch, transitioning from the standard CakePHP 3 to Laravel 11

- Additionally, several components were created for Vue 3, notably the dual list, two listing components used to move data from one side to the other
- Dockerized the entire system so that all developers use the same version of PHP, database, queues, Redis, among others
- This allowed the team to work with more autonomy and fewer issues
