Special Guest: Eduard Zuiev, Six-Time Certified Senior Magento Back-End Developer at PROFSTEP.

Show Note

Eduard isn’t your everyday Magento developer. Actually, he has six certifications and co-founded a company in 2014. While this was a short interview, Eduard’s story will resonate with developers who are committed to their craft and servicing their clients well. While taking some precious vacation time with his family, Eduard had to deal with the most intense technical challenge of his career while attempting to climb an actual mountain! He lets us into the world of a “founder” and what it really looks like to run a company that puts clients first. Joseph can certainly relate, as it took him years after starting SwiftOtter to get to the point where he felt comfortable with taking a vacation and leaving his post. 

Eduard shares his daily habits and his methods of growing as a developer. While he doesn’t have time to take in all of the information, he loves Magento and has amassed a great toolbox of resources to help him stay fresh and learn new things on a regular basis. “Every day, I’m starting” is a golden nugget from this episode, because a developer who starts the day with a readiness to learn and grow and a desire to climb that day’s mountain (pun intended) is the one who will do great things!
