Timeline

Printful is a print-on-demand and fulfillment (dropshipping) company that helps people turn their ideas into brands and products.

After a short initial period in the SaaS Team (paid subscriptions and related features), I was offered the opportunity to rotate to the Design Maker Team, one of the core teams of the company. There, I faced more demanding tasks and constant challenges.

In 2024, Printful merged with Printify to form a new group, FYUL, after which I became a part of the wider FYUL team, working at the same time on Printful and Printify components.

Here are some key highlights of my role at Printful:

  • Key figure and reference back-end expert within the team. Highly valued team member, as highlighted during performance reviews.
  • Leading key company projects and various teams of developers, including cutting edge integrations with AI tools and APIs.
  • Doing technical and architectural analyses. Research, viability assessments, technical implementation documents, etc.
  • Developing and maintaining multiple complex and interconnected pieces of software, ensuring good architecture, maintainability and reusability.
  • Optimization of code performance, database queries and related elements. Proactive monitoring and profiling, proposing solutions and improvements.
  • Writing comprehensive unit and integration tests for every task.
  • Collaboration with international teams of dozens of developers within the company.
  • Participating proactively in the agile processes of the team and work organization, in constant collaboration with the leads and PMs.
