Banking support (Craft Silicon): Receive client issue → reproduce (UI/API/Profiler) → trace Frontend → API → stored procedure → functions → views → tables → inspect SQL Server → compare TEST/LIVE & GL/config → root cause → SQL/config fix → retest → document for developers, clients, and management.

Design: Database schema, REST contracts, UI systems, brand assets, and environment plan (local XAMPP → staging → VPS/shared hosting).
Build: Laravel/Filament/PHP backend, Blade/React frontend, Flutter mobile where needed; PHPUnit/feature tests for critical paths.
Integrate: Mobile–backend sync (Listener/VLL-SMS ↔ API ↔ portal), payment/airtime/disbursement APIs, portal webhooks, Craft Silicon banking channels and third-party switches.
Deploy: Windows Server/IIS and Linux Server (VPS, shared hosting, Namecheap)—Git/GitHub, FTPS, Composer, SSL, .env configuration, cache/route discipline.
