In my role as a Pimcore expert working in close collaboration with Tagsom, my work is embedded within a broader framework of digital transformation projects that prioritize structured content, integration logic, and enterprise-level scalability. October 2025 has been focused on leveraging Pimcore’s flexible architecture to support data-driven workflows across multiple systems within the Tagsom ecosystem.
My involvement this month has centered on the following contributions to the Tagsom project model:
Pimcore Platform Expertise:
Full installation and configuration of Pimcore environments tailored to Tagsom’s DevOps pipeline.
Custom theme development aligned with Tagsom’s brand identity and digital design system.
PSD to HTML/CSS conversion, then translated into Pimcore templates and assets for high responsiveness.
Optimization of Pimcore for speed and stability, especially across integrations with third-party APIs.
Data imports/exports, ensuring smooth flow between Pimcore and connected systems (e.g., Kvaser, Jeeves, Mailtrap).
Responsive bug-fixing and continuous maintenance to support agile sprints and delivery goals.
HTML/CSS conversion to Pimcore theme structures, enabling modular and scalable UI implementation.
Integrations & Interoperability:
Worked on maintaining and improving the integration bridge between Pimcore and the Kvaser platform, which manages core product, event, and company data synced from Pimcore to the Kvaser frontend.
Ensured system compatibility and data hygiene for ongoing and upcoming deployments, using Tagsom’s staging and production workflow via templ.io servers.
Support for Tagsom’s Development Methodology:
Participated in parallel testing and deployment cycles, using Trello for task tracking and contributing to version-controlled environments via Bitbucket.
Coordinated releases within Tagsom’s branching and deployment strategy, supporting code merges to QA, staging, and production branches.
Followed Tagsom’s outlined QA routines, including sign-off testing, regression cycles, and post-release bug resolution.
Additional Technical Contributions:
Linux server configuration (Debian-based systems) to align with Pimcore hosting requirements.
Integration of Varnish, Memcache/Redis, and Nginx for caching and performance improvements.
Support for email handling and logging via Mailtrap and SMTP configurations.
Working with Tagsom provides a framework where technical depth in Pimcore is matched with structured routines, strategic oversight, and cross-functional collaboration between project managers, developers, and QA resources. The structured nature of their processes—combined with their agile flexibility—has allowed me to contribute meaningfully to the long-term sustainability and scalability of their Pimcore-based operations.
