What I'm looking for

I’m seeking the position of Software Engineer to leverage expertise in web development, coding, and problem-solving to contribute to the development of cutting-edge software solutions.

I’m an experienced Web Developer with 4 years at Developers Alliance, specializing in Magento 2 e-commerce. I develop and maintain robust web applications, with a focus on clean, maintainable code and seamless shopping experiences.

In my day-to-day work, I craft e-commerce sites using HTML5, PHP, MySQL, KnockoutJs, and Magento 2. I integrate third-party systems through REST APIs, fix bugs, install security patches, and develop new Magento 2 modules while customizing frontend to match customer needs.

I’ve also owned major delivery under pressure—at LC Waikiki, I operated as a “one man army,” refactoring legacy “spaghetti code,” optimizing performance, integrating ERP/stock/product systems, and creating API endpoints for orders, invoices, returns, and shipments. I’m Adobe Certified (Adobe Commerce Developer, 2023) and I enjoy collaborating across SEO, DevOps, and stakeholders to get projects aligned and shipped.
