I am a senior software engineer who ships production code in the open. Magento 2 is where most of the recent modules originate, but the underlying engineering — performance, architecture, platform thinking — applies more broadly.
Everything published here comes from real projects. The modules are open source and runnable today; the notes are field observations that survived contact with production.
How I can help
- Performance and image delivery: faster category and PDP pages, real LCP wins.
- Content Security Policy: safer rollouts with smaller blast radius.
- Maintainable customization: entity services instead of scattered preferences and plugins.
- Operations clarity: store overview and chart-driven telemetry for multi-store setups.
Who I work with
- Magento 2 tech leads and CTOs on multi-year projects.
- Agencies inheriting Magento codebases with accumulated customization.
- Operations and merchant teams running multi-store setups.
How to engage
- Use any module published under github.com/brosenberger.
- Open an issue or pull request on the module you need help with.
- Reach out via the contact page for tailored guidance or implementation support.
