Taught myself programming and web development fundamentals while building a custom e-commerce website for this local scuba equipment retailer, allowing them to begin selling products nationwide rather than just locally, and enabling me to smoothly transition into a new career path.Built a product page code generation tool, first in Javascript then ported to and extended with PERL CGI scripts, used by developers and non-technical employees to create detail pages for the web store.Leveraged very limited resources to convert an open source PERL guestbook script into an online auction system, enabling the shop to dramatically increase sales of hard-to-sell items.Oversaw the hosting and deployment of the site using Linux web hosts.Worked completely independently for the first couple of years, until the workload increased enough to add a second developer, whom I trained and mentored.
