I have over 10 years experience as a full stack developer working in LAMP stacks with Drupal & PHP.
I've worked on several Drupal e-commerce sites including Zoos Victoria, Taronga Zoo & Australian Print Workshop.
I've been responsible for migrating sites from D6 to D7, D7 to D8 and even custom C# sites to Wordpress as well as writing custom solutions to import or export large amounts of data.
I've used Behat extensively including writing custom extensions, and am also confident writing Functional & Unit tests.
A Drupal 8 site using to manage electric car charging sessions with many APIs.
I was responsible for:
This is a Drupal 7 multisite with five different frontends: Main Site, Members, Tickets, Donate and Shop.
The main challenges I've been involved with were:
This is a Drupal 7 commerce site using the Drupal Commerce module.
This site integrates with the shop backend system using a Jitterbit API. This API is used to populate and update the products and also every time a sale is completed.
It also integrates with the payment gateway Securepay using a module I wrote.
I build the backend of this site and also helped with the frontend.

I was the lead developer responsible for the whole backend.
We came up with the idea to use a mapping plugin to provide high resolution zoomable images which worked really well.

Using an MSSQL backend proved to be a challenge due to compatibility issues with WP core and third party plugins but found solutions too all these issues.
View WebsiteFelix is a professional and dedicated developer as well as being a great communicator. From day one at Dennis he hit the ground running, understood the platform and delivered everything that was asked of him.
The quality of his code was excellent and he often went beyond what was asked of him by suggesting improvements and refactors which really pushed the platform forward.
During my time at Versantus I had the pleasure of working with Felix. I cannot recommend Felix enough!
He is a consummate professional and always went the extra mile.
Felix is gifted in understanding complex requirements and applying solutions for them.
He always strived to find the next best way of working, but also bent to the pressures of business demands where necessary.
If I have the opportunity to work with Felix again, I would welcome the opportunity with open arms.
Felix is one of those great developers who's also just a genuine pleasure to work with. He's got a real sense of craftsmanship and pride in his work, and it shows in the quality of what he delivers.
On a technical level he's capable of delivering an entire development project on his own, and was tasked with some of the most difficult projects that came through the studio where we worked together. Felix is always happy to take on a challenge and his curiosity drives him to go deep when he needs to learn something new.
He's really good at communicating where the risks and challenges in a project lie, and always keeps an open line of communication when unexpected challenges might cause delays in a project. He understands that behind every technical challenge there's a real person or a business with a problem that needs solving, and doesn't get distracted from delivering that outcome.
On a personal level, Felix was just an amazing person to work with. His positivity and humour got us through some difficult projects together, and I'd jump at the chance to work with Felix again in the future!
