About me

I started as a Laravel backend developer in 2021 and moved into enterprise e-commerce a year later. Since then most of my work has been on Magento 2 and Adobe Commerce: custom modules, themes, PWA Studio storefronts, payment gateways, and integrations with systems like Salesforce CRM and Vinculum ERP.

More recently I led the migration of a company website from CodeIgniter 3 to Next.js with a CodeIgniter 4 API, and moved its hosting from shared hosting to a VPS behind Cloudflare. I handle the server side too: Linux, Nginx, security patches and uptime.

I also mentor junior developers and interns on coding standards, Git workflows and code review.

A slow company website, rebuilt to load in under a second

Alletec's website ran on CodeIgniter 3 on shared hosting and scored a D on GTmetrix. I led the rebuild and the hosting move.

  • Rebuilt the frontend in Next.js with a CodeIgniter 4 API behind it
  • Moved hosting from shared hosting to a VPS, with Cloudflare for CDN and security
  • Used server-side rendering, image optimization and code splitting to cut load time
