Jesse op 't Root

Medior Magento 2 / software developer from Weert, the Netherlands. 3+ years of e-commerce back-end work, plus my own mobile apps.

Motivation

I like building things that take real work off people's hands. In my last job that meant custom Magento 2 modules, API integrations with MediaMarkt, Bol.com and Fixje, and an order flow that printed every order automatically overnight, so the warehouse could start packing first thing in the morning. After hours I kept going and built my own mobile apps from idea to store-ready release.

I'm looking for a team where I can keep growing as a developer, own features end to end, and work on a product I can be proud of. I learn fast, I'm comfortable reading unfamiliar code, and I care about shipping things that are simple, solid and privacy-friendly. I don't have a 9-to-5 mentality: when production breaks, I'm there until it's fixed.

Experience

Lead developer, Magento 2 / Software

Remarkt (Terabyte B.V.), Kelpen-Oler · Feb 2023 – Sep 2026

Reviewed all code before release and owned the main testing, so every deployment reached the live shop without breaking it.
On call for production emergencies outside office hours, fixing issues whenever the shop needed it.
Built and maintained multiple custom Magento 2 modules in PHP, HTML and CSS.
Automated the order process: orders went from Magento straight to the printer, ready for processing every morning.
Set up API integrations with dropshipping partners, including MediaMarkt, Bol.com and Fixje.
Automated price updates, order processing and stock management between platforms, partly with Python scripts.
