Jeff Block
Senior Full-Stack Developer / PHP / Shopware / Instructor / Team-Lead / IT enthusiast
Hello there!
My name is Jeff and I’m a senior full-stack developer, lead developer and instructor based in Cologne, Germany.
While I work across the full stack, my core expertise lies in PHP, with a strong focus on Shopware 6.
I thrive on building exciting and challenging web applications, leveraging modern technologies to create innovative solutions.
Continuously learning and embracing new challenges is my way of staying ahead in the ever-evolving tech landscape.
Currently, I work at PIXLIP GmbH, where I primarily maintain and enhance the company’s Shopware 6 online store.
Beyond coding, I’m passionate about personal growth, ice hockey, sports, gaming, reading, and—most importantly—spending time with my six-member family: 🐴 🐶 👶 👫 👧.

I-D Media AG
Web-Developer / Software developer
For a bit of over 7 years I worked at I-D Media AG where I was some kind of a "allrounder". Besides PHP based projects, I spent a lot of time developing projects with enterprise CMS Systems like OpenText, SiteCore or FirstSpirit. Besides that, I did a lot of frontend-related stuff (HTML, CSS, JS) as well.
