Frontend Developer (Maintenance) (April 2021 - September 2021)

As
a
junior
developer
at
a
busy
agency,
I

into
diverse
web
development
aspects.
My
responsibilities
included
troubleshooting
and
fixing
bugs
to
improve
user
experience,
updating
car
pages,
and
refining
existing
content
for
relevancy.
I
also

across
various
websites.
This
immersive
experience
honed
my
technical
skills
and
provided
a
deep
insight
into
the
industry.

In
October
2021,
I
was
promoted
to
a
bespoke
developer
role,
allowing
me
to
undertake
more
advanced
and
client-focused
projects.
I
took
on
responsibilities
like
integrating
franchises,
altering
financial
data,
updating
locations,
and
creating
custom
pages
for
specific
client
needs.
Additionally,
I
worked
with
third-party
scripts
to
enhance
website
interactivity
and
functionality.
I
also
ventured
into
SEO,
emphasizing
website
page
speed
optimization
to
elevate
user
experience
and
search
engine
positioning.
This

role
not

proficiency.

In
August
2022,
I

on
creating
websites
for
car
dealerships.
I
improved
the
boilerplate
code,
ensuring
faster
development,
enhanced
visuals,
and
reduced
bugs.
Additionally,
I
developed
a
custom
Chrome
extension
tailored
for
our

also
introduced
devtools
to
facilitate
bug
tracking
and
address
SEO
issues,
ensuring
our
websites
consistently
delivered
top-notch
quality
and
performance.
