Last position:

Full-Stack Developer & Design Lead at FUNKE Mediengruppe

As part of the migration from Shopware 5 to 6, it was decided to rethink the entire e-commerce landscape of the regional FUNKE online shops from scratch. The main goals, besides creating a reliable platform with multiple sales channels for each regional brand, were the "rebranding" and the brand development around it.

The rebranding was also transferred into the advertising materials CI, which in the daily newspaper sector, alongside digital performance ads, still has print as a strong focus in the target group segment.


My responsibilities/tasks in this project:

  • Creating the UI design system
  • UX research
  • Prototyping
  • Rebranding & creating the new CI manual across all regional shops
  • Shopware 6 front-end & back-end development
  • Design & creative lead
  • Ad design, landing pages

Developer at agentic-engineer.online

agentic-engineer.online is my publicly testable live demo and at the same time the platform where I show my work. Originally created as a recruitment trial task, I have since continued to run it as my own demo, learning, and product project — on a Hetzner VPS behind a Cloudflare tunnel, through a multi-stage AI-orchestrated deploy pipeline with snapshot rollback. If a deploy step breaks, the system falls back to the last clean snapshot, the script is adjusted, the test repeated — empirical, test-driven, without hand tuning.

  • Technically behind it: Python and FastAPI, an OpenRouter model cascade, SQLite persistence, and Cloudflare edge tuning.
  • I am the developer and the strictest customer of my own AI work in one person — what started as a prototype has become a tool I use every day and against which I test my own products.

About the technology

What jQuery does

jQuery is a small JavaScript library for working with the DOM, events, AJAX, and browser quirks. Companies still use it to keep older web apps alive, add interaction to server-rendered pages, and maintain plugins already built around it.

Common work

  • Fix click, form, and modal behavior
  • Connect AJAX flows to existing pages
  • Maintain jQuery UI widgets and plugins
  • Refactor scripts without breaking legacy code
  • Clean up selectors, animations, and event handling

Where it fits

jQuery is common in content sites, portals, admin areas, e-commerce front ends, and internal tools. It often sits next to PHP, WordPress, Drupal, ASP.NET, or a backend-rendered template system where the team wants targeted improvements instead of a full rewrite.

When to hire help

Companies bring in freelance specialists when old scripts are fragile, a release is blocked by browser issues, or a plugin no longer works as expected. A strong expert can trace event flow, isolate conflicts with other scripts, and make careful changes that preserve behavior.

Strong specialist skills

A good jQuery professional understands selectors, delegated events, AJAX callbacks, DOM readiness, and plugin extension patterns. They also know when to keep jQuery in place and when to move a feature toward plain JavaScript without creating regressions.

Working setup

  • Review legacy templates and script bundles
  • Document dependencies on jQuery and jQuery UI
  • Patch behavior in small, testable steps
  • Coordinate with backend and frontend specialists
  • Support remote delivery or short on-site sessions when needed

Frequently asked questions

Before you brief your next project: the most common questions about jQuery.

jQuery is used to simplify DOM updates, event handling, AJAX calls, and small UI behaviors in web pages. It is still common in legacy applications, content management systems, and sites that need targeted fixes without a full front-end rebuild.

jQuery reduces a lot of repetitive code, especially in older browsers and in codebases that already depend on it. Plain JavaScript is usually the better choice for new work, but jQuery can still be the fastest path when a project already uses plugins, shared scripts, or older patterns.

jQuery help makes sense when a release is blocked by broken interactions, plugin conflicts, or hard-to-trace legacy scripts. It is also useful when you need careful updates inside an existing system and want to avoid side effects in nearby code.

A strong jQuery professional should also understand JavaScript, HTML, CSS, AJAX, and the browser event model. Experience with jQuery UI, WordPress, and server-rendered templates is often useful because many real projects mix those pieces.

jQuery work often includes bug fixes, plugin integration, interactive forms, modal behavior, dropdowns, filters, and admin panel interactions. It can also include cleanup of old scripts, safer event binding, and small refactors that make the code easier to maintain.

jQuery can still be practical for a new feature inside an existing app that already depends on it. For a greenfield front end, many teams prefer modern JavaScript or a framework, but jQuery remains useful when consistency and low-risk change matter more than a rewrite.

Yes, jQuery work is often handled remotely because the main tasks are reading code, reproducing issues, and making focused changes. On-site work only becomes useful when stakeholders want live debugging sessions or close coordination with a local product team.

Look for someone who explains root causes clearly, names the scripts or plugins involved, and makes changes in small steps. A strong jQuery specialist should preserve existing behavior, reduce duplicate code, and know when an issue is really caused by another library or by backend output.

The average hourly rate of freelancers who have used jQuery in their recent projects is 91 €, which corresponds to a daily rate of about 731 € based on an 8-hour working day.

Of the freelancers who have used jQuery in their recent projects, 85% hold at least a Bachelor's degree, 45% hold at least a Master's degree, and 6% hold a doctorate.

On average, freelancers who have used jQuery in their recent projects have 21 years of professional experience, with a single engagement typically lasting around 5.3 years.

The most common languages among freelancers who have used jQuery in their recent projects are German (98%), English (97%), and French (14%).

The most common industries among freelancers who have used jQuery in their recent projects are Information Technology (97%), Retail (48%), and Banking and Finance (42%).

The most common business areas among freelancers who have used jQuery in their recent projects are Information Technology (99%), Product Development (92%), and Project Management (50%).
