Leading a complex commerce replatform
Within the finance team, I led our product API replatform to BigCommerce, working alongside three senior engineers on implementation.
The challenge
Purplebricks-specific business processes did not map neatly onto the platform, requiring substantial custom integration.
Leadership and delivery
As team lead, I led implementation alongside three senior engineers and helped translate the business requirements into the replatformed product APIs.
Payment integration
Our existing payment provider was not supported natively. We created a custom integration for the payment flow, with secure handling of card details as a central requirement.
Production ownership
I became a trusted point of escalation for production issues, most often involving DevOps. I regularly investigated and resolved problems affecting the platform.
