Employment history
Fitness Engros
Fitness Engross was using an old version of Shopware that had various bugs and problems — all of which I solved — one of the most serious bugs prevented us from updating.
Overall I am very satisfied with my acomplishments in this position, and not least thankful that Fitness Engros entrusted me with their system, given I had no previous experience with Shopware.
When I was hired, I had limited experience with the technologies Shopware is built on. I quickly had to learn Vue.js, Twig, and how to set up Elasticsearch, with minimal assistance from other developers. In fact, I dug so deeply into Shopware's code that I discovered and reported an issue that was causing massive disk space usage in our shop.
BITD ApS / Virtuly ApS
I worked with various ad-hoc Wordpress development tasks for their clients. Doing this time I became quite good at creating and working with Wordpress plugins, as well as custom Themes.
Of course I already had experience with PHP, but my familiarity with Wordpress was still limited to what I had learnt at KEA at this point.
I mostly did front-end work that involved HTML, CSS, and JavaScript, typically created as CMS editor components or simply injected via custom plugins and themes.
Wordpress was a bit tough to work with, because some of their clients had absolutely huge functions.php file, which involved a lot of scrolling up and down just to find things. This was before I knew about grep -r "something".
