Web Developer Co-op

I was responsible for building and maintaining websites using PHP and WordPress. Some features included integration of external REST API's. On the front-end, I used Bootstrap to ensure the websites are mobile responsive. I designed and developed the back-end system of an e-commerce website, which resulted in a user-friendly dashboard for retail administrators. Over the span of a year, I maintained more than 50 websites. Maintenance includes fixing bugs, implementing new features, and tweaking the user interface. Completed tasks under minimal supervision.
