• Magento Consultant

  • Jun 2009 - Jan 2010

  Brought in to manage and provide advanced e‐commerce experience for a project that was out of scope and stalled. A major requirement was that there had to be a unified management interface which was solved using Magento’s native module system. - Developed a module allowing one installation of Magento to power multiple client stores for Software as a Service implementation. This required major rewrites of the default ACL, Website, Users and Roles modules with minor tweaks to all modules. This was accomplished while leaving Magento’s native upgrade path open. - Created a Distributor module to allow one administrator to setup and control multiple distributors from one interface. Each distributor could setup multiple stores and control language, content, products, currency, shipping and branding on a per store basis. - Heavily modified CMS module to allow administrators to create multiple sections, i.e. Blogs, News and Press Releases and set parent pages. Each distributor is able to update their unique sub‐pages and these pages are then combined using rules created by the administrator. Created a menu interface that creates menus via a drag and drop interface. Added versioning, article approval, comments, categories, tags, RSS feeds and WYSIWYG functions. - Built PCI compliant Recurring Billing module that allowed users to move items from their shopping cart into the module. Complemented it with an advanced scheduler and full audit trail that creates all transactions in Magento via a custom sales API. - Modified Order Management workflow and developed several small modules including Photo Gallery, Affiliates, Photo Ranking and Simple Blog. - Migrated customer information and sales data into Magento from Interchange a Perl based e-commerce system. - Consulted on new hosting environment, development environment, PCI compliance and software development lifecycle.
