I'm Lucas Langa, a full-stack developer with a strong focus on enterprise-grade e-commerce systems. For the past 4+ years I’ve worked remotely with Scandiweb, delivering backend-heavy solutions that power high-stakes payment processing, real-time order flows, and integration with PIM and pricing engines. I combine deep PHP and Node.js expertise with strong GraphQL API design, checkout engineering, and frontend work in React and TypeScript. I thrive in distributed, cross-timezone teams and take pride in shipping robust, well-documented features that meet engineering standards. I’m Adobe Commerce (Magento 2) Developer Professional certified and have hands-on experience across Magento 1/2, Pimcore, and multi-service microarchitectures. I enjoy writing Jest tests, documenting features, and collaborating with product and client teams to deliver reliable ecommerce experiences under live production pressure. I’ve contributed to platform launches, migrations, and complex integrations, always aiming for scalable, maintainable solutions that support business growth.
