Summary
Edwin Jacobs is a senior PHP-focused web developer with 11 years of experience crafting maintainable, well-designed codebases and a particular depth in Magento-based e-commerce projects. He combines backend expertise (PHP, MySQL, Redis, RabbitMQ) with modern tooling and practices including TypeScript, NestJs, CI/CD, and deployment on GCP, having led microservice efforts at Pon. Comfortable managing open-source workflows on GitHub/GitLab, he enjoys design discussions and continuous improvement of architecture and developer experience. Based in Wageningen, Netherlands, he pairs a master's in mathematics with pragmatic engineering—he’s happy to dust off rusty Java when a project calls for it.
