My Experience

Laravel Developer at Marketing Lounge

My role at marketing lounge partnership was to develop marketing landing pages which could help engage users in a sign-up process. This could be for offers, or it could be an email signup for newsletters. This had utilized a custom CMS using Laravel, which I configured, then setup to help develop these pages. This then turned into a fully backend CMS which the admin team for that company could use to interact with their customers.

2016 – 2020

Full-stack Developer at Physio123

At Physio123 (Sister company to Nuttersons), one of my duties was to investigate the international SEO ranking within Physio123. I first combined five separate websites into one, to then change the ranking of these sites into a more traditional layout (e.g. /en-gb/), this aided the development process for future usage while also providing customers with a familiar view no matter which country they’re from. My other task was to develop a fluid cart system, which new customers could then use to customize then purchase their own web package. To do this I used jQuery Ajax alongside Laravel’s crud system to provide a dynamic interface for potential users of the site.

2016 – 2020

Full-stack Developer at Nuttersons

Started on a sandwich placement with the company in 2016 to then pursue a full-time role.

My technical role at the company is to design and develop bespoke projects, this may consist of bespoke WordPress themes, developing full-scale projects using Laravel or vanilla PHP, while working using front-end technologies such as HTML5, CSS3, SASS, Gulp and Git.
