During my term at Movie Goods (Layoff Due to Recession) I created a number of small utilities to automate lengthy tasks such as product inventory management, resulting in time savings as much as 90%.
I created a custom rewrite of an OS Commerce System so that it worked in a customized format treating movie titles as not only categories, but also products, and each individual poster style as a products rather than just an option (each with its own images).
I created many add on modules including a custom CCard payment gateway, bulk inventory uploader (200 lines of code as opposed to the 3100 lines of code used in the open source "Easy Populate" module), a custom module to control various coupons for discounts by individual item, bulk discount, $??.00 off purchase, and buy one get one coupons.
I also designed a custom module to control a new make an offer option where customers could haggle for a better price, a custom module for adding polls and questionnaires , modified the catalog for the ability to search by Title, Year, Cast or Genre, added custom routines to auto create 3 sizes of images in order to speed up product display. I custom optimizations on the databases and queries to improve search performance.
