2. Refactor old modules when asked, keeping behaviour the same.

3. Profile slow endpoints and suggest fixes, such as adding an index or caching a result.

4. Present a short demo of your work to the team every two weeks.

5. Query and update data in PostgreSQL or MySQL, including simple migrations
