- Proposed new features and endpoint improvements, wrote technical documentation, and documented previously unknown aspects, leading to improved clarity and system maintainability

- Led the frontend implementation of a microservice to add new features to a legacy codebase and contributed to changes across the system, delivering the solution under a tight deadline before Croatia's currency transition from HRK to Euro
