Employee Share Ownership Plan (ESOP) Platform

Grant โ†’ vest โ†’ exercise โ†’ dividend, fully automated

Django ยท PostgreSQL ยท django-two-factor-auth ยท ReportLab ยท qrcode

Built a Django-based ESOP management platform automating the complete lifecycle of employee share ownership โ€” enrolment, grant allocation, vesting, option exercise, and dividend distribution โ€” for an enterprise client, live in production.

Supports four vesting schedule types (time-based, cliff, graded, and custom milestone), a central company share pool with approval-gated transfers to individual shareholders, and electronic share certificates with QR-code verification. Every balance movement โ€” grant, vest, exercise, transfer โ€” is written to a full transaction ledger, with staged edits requiring admin approval before they touch a shareholder's live record.

2FA (email/SMS OTP) on every login, role-based access (Admin, Manager, Member), and in-app configurable site settings so branding and OTP behaviour don't require a code change to update.
