Impossible as there are no employees, only volunteers.
That said, consider Cygwin as like an integrated and interoperable Windows 
hosted Linux distro with over 12k packages, including many from GNU and most of 
the important ones, and X.org X Window servers, with many popular X Window 
desktop environments available, and many X Window GUI client applications.

Just follow the instructions to download and run the Windows GUI Cygwin Setup 
program (developed and built using Cygwin tools), choose packages you might use 
on Linux to do your work, let the installer complete, and use the shortcuts to 
start using X Window GUI desktops, clients, terminal emulators, and setup 
daemons to run as Windows services.

Importantly for your type of use case: cron, HDF4/5, sqlite, Berkeley DB, Maria 
DB, PostGres pgsql, Apache httpd, and PHP are available, and any Windows native 
program can be run under a Cygwin console or launched in a window.
