Magento Lead (Front-End)

Magento Lead (Front-End) - Warrington - GBP40-60k

Ecommerce implementation consultancy, based in Warrington, is looking for a Magento Lead (front-end) to work on large-scale enterprise projects.

You will join a team of enterprise ecommerce implementation experience, working with leading brands on projects ranging in size from 400-600 man days. The complexities involved in large implementations will appeal to you. You will recognize and appreciate the benefits of working alongside and being supported by a team of like-minded and skilled developers and will want to push the boundaries of everyone's knowledge.

You will be an eCommerce specialist, with Magento Enterprise as your toolset of choice. You will have worked consistently on sites with huge order volumes and, as a result, recognize the financial implication of every minute of lost revenue. You will have mastered internationalization and localization already and you will be the go-to person for complex Magento debugging. You will understand that Magento isn't always the right tool for the job, being able to articulate this to technical and non-technical audience - you will also be able to recommend integration to a third party of bespoke solution (and be able to execute this).

• Performance improvements
• Caching ??? Design principles (e.g DRY/SOLID)
• System Integrations (e.g. Google APi via JS)
• Version Control (VCS)
