Summary

Problem

Corporate gifting needed vendor-scoped operations, payments, and reliable order fulfillment across many recipients.

Solution

Built the backend from scratch — services and integrations for payments, commerce, and accounting, with reliable background processing.

Impact

Supported scalable gifting operations with secure integrations and dependable fulfillment workflows.

Role

As the main backend developer, I built the backend from scratch — services, data handling, APIs, and the server-side logic behind the product.
