Skills
Projects
For over a decade, I’ve been dedicated to crafting comprehensive e-commerce solutions for clients, with a meticulous approach to every aspect of the process. My expertise extends across various platforms including WordPress and Magento, where I’ve orchestrated seamless installations from hosting and domain setup to database configuration.
I specialize in not only the industry-leading e-commerce stores but also platforms such as PrestaShop, OpenCart, and VirtueMart. Additionally, my skill set encompasses vital components like product importation, SEO optimization, integration of Google tags, and effective email marketing strategies.
This portfolio showcases my commitment to delivering professional-grade e-commerce solutions tailored to the unique needs of each client.
Within my portfolio, I proudly present three distinct types of WordPress plugins, each designed to enhance functionality and streamline processes:
- Payment Gateway Integration for WooCommerce: Recently, I developed a custom payment gateway plugin tailored specifically for WooCommerce. This plugin seamlessly integrates with the native blocks checkout system, ensuring smooth and secure transactions for online stores.
- SAP Integration for Post Updates: Leveraging my expertise, I’ve created a plugin that facilitates seamless synchronization between client SAP systems and WordPress posts. This integration streamlines content management processes, ensuring real-time updates and consistency across platforms.
- REST API Currency Price Update: Another innovative plugin in my repertoire is designed to update currency prices via REST API integration. Utilizing Cheerio.js, this plugin fetches and updates currency prices dynamically, providing accurate and up-to-date pricing information for WordPress websites.
These plugins exemplify my dedication to crafting bespoke solutions that address specific client needs while adhering to WordPress best practices and standards.
During my tenure, I had the privilege of spearheading a project involving headless Magento implementation. Our objective was to transform Magento into a powerful back-office integration tool for WOM, optimizing performance and leveraging its robust infrastructure.
Central to this endeavor was the development of a comprehensive web API integration, facilitating seamless communication with WOM’s internal Java-based systems. This integration enabled real-time synchronization of crucial client data such as credit scores and personal information, directly within the checkout process. Additionally, we streamlined product management by implementing mechanisms to effortlessly add new products to the store.
This experience underscores my proficiency in harnessing Magento’s capabilities to create tailored solutions that align with business objectives and enhance operational efficiency.
In addition to my other endeavors, I’ve developed a Magento plugin tailored for Paguelofacil, a prominent payment gateway from Panama. This plugin was meticulously crafted to seamlessly integrate with the latest stable Magento installations, ensuring compatibility and optimal performance.
By leveraging my expertise in Magento development, I was able to deliver a robust solution that empowers merchants to effortlessly process payments through Paguelofacil, enhancing the overall e-commerce experience for both businesses and customers alike.
I had the privilege of spearheading a transformative project within the real estate sector, where I led the transition from a legacy system to a modern, React TypeScript-based platform. Drawing inspiration from the company’s existing closed system, which had served them well for five years, we embarked on a journey to reimagine and integrate all business logic and departments into a unified, cohesive system.
Collaborating closely with teams across the organization, we leveraged React for the frontend, Django for the database, and Python for communication with the legacy system. This holistic approach enabled us to seamlessly update and integrate functionalities while ensuring a smooth transition for users.
This project exemplifies my ability to combine innovative thinking with practical solutions to drive business transformation and deliver impactful results.
Throughout my career, I’ve spearheaded numerous integrations between e-commerce systems, employing a robust CRUD methodology to seamlessly connect disparate platforms. These integrations encompassed a spectrum of functionalities, including data synchronization, client authentication, and utilization of Google APIs.
Moreover, I’ve demonstrated versatility by encapsulating these integrations into user-friendly plugins, streamlining installation and enhancing usability for clients. This multifaceted approach underscores my commitment to delivering comprehensive solutions that bridge the gap between diverse systems while ensuring seamless functionality and user satisfaction.
