EVENT: order.placed — NEW ORDER RECEIVED

I build the backends behind brands you know.

Parth Thummar — Sr. Backend Developer & eCommerce Solutions Architect. Greater Boston, MA.

STAGE 02 — order.validated

Checks passed.

Thirteen-plus years of Magento and Adobe Commerce backend engineering: ERP integrations, RabbitMQ message queues, custom GraphQL schemas, Varnish and Redis caching layers, zero-downtime migrations, payment systems, and B2B workflows at enterprise scale.

“Backend lead” in practice means owning the systems that keep money moving when nobody is looking — the inventory sync at 3 a.m., the payment capture during a holiday traffic spike, the migration nobody noticed because nothing went down.
