ABOUT ME
I love MUSIC...
I love writing, listening to and making all kinds of music. I can play anything with strings; like the Classical, Acoustic Steel-string, Electric 6 & 7 string guitars, Mandolin, Banjo, Piano, Violin, Viola, and Cello. I also play the acoustic and electric drums.
I am a MAKER...
I like to make things. From costumes for my kids to full-sized remote control Star Wars Astromech Droids (like R2-D2) made from 3D Printed parts, Arduino Micro-Controllers, RGB Leds, and working miniture smoke machines!
I am into TECH...
I have been into computers and literally anything tech related since I was 13 years old with our first family PC (A Gateway with Windows 95). Now I play PC games with my kids and create 3D models to later print in real life.
I am a NERD...
I am into what most would consider "nerdy" things, like Star Trek, Star Wars, Doctor Who, Lord of the Rings, Monty Python, Ghostbusters, Indiana Jones, Mystery Science Theater 3000, and going to Comic-Cons.

WORK HISTORY
Advance Auto Parts | 2018 - Present
Senior Front End Web Developer
I design, create, implement, and maintain multiple websites for AAP and its sister brands such as Carquest, Worldpac, Autopart International, TechNet, and DieHard. I design and code all marketing material for my.advancepro.com, carquestpro.com and the respective ordering sites as well as occasionally design email templates when needed. I use Figma to build site UI/UX redesigns, MS VSCode for coding, Workfront for projects, IBM WebSphere for custom HTML / CSS / Javascript modules, Salesforce for designing custom communities, scheduleable marketing campaigns, lightning web components, layouts, and themes, and Litmus for email template testing. I utilize a team of developers to test and push my code through different environments before being published to production, as well as a team of creatives to make any image assets I require for the design.

Next Level Apparel | 2021 - 2022
Front End Web Developer / Webmaster
As the Front End Developer and Webmaster my duties included maintaining the Magento 2 platform e-commerce site (which has over 6,000 B2B customers), managing orders and customer issues through Magento Admin and/or D365 System Admin, creating new pages and hero banners for marketing, various D365 System Admin duties, addressing and fixing ADA Compliance issues, SEO improvements, modifying existing site themes and email modules to become mobile responsive, creating new themes, templates, and modules. I also helped manage a team of developers for back-end code changes, then verify / QA test before making pushes to production. I helped in facilitating several major structure operations change-overs including the order processing platform from Full-Circle to Microsoft D365, and the Credit Card processor from 3Delta to Cybersource.

A&S BMW Motorcycle Parts Online | 2005 - 2018
Web Developer / Graphic Designer
I designed, built, and maintained multiple e-commerce websites using authoring / scripting languages, Database management tools, and digital media with content creation tools. I also wrote, designed, and edited web page content, email campaigns, Facebook marketing campaigns, physical marketing media, product videos and tutorials, as well as directed others in producing these types of content. Developing and implementing content that increases overall site SEO that is trackable through Google Analytics reporting was also one of my duties. By utilizing the entire Adobe Creative Cloud Suite, I designed all brand marketing material for the dealership (print, web, and video production) for multiple Motorcycle brands (BMW, Ducati, Triumph, Vespa, and Piaggio). All sites I built were designed to be cross-browser compatible and Mobile Responsive, with user-tested & standards compliant UI / UX designs.

Heavy Metal Nerd Designs | 2013 - Present (freelance)
Senior Graphic Designer / Web Developer
I would meet and talk with clients to break down what they wanted for the project, then get an idea of colors, styles, or overall feelings from examples given by them (or myself). I have designed art, logos, advertisements, promotional posters, business cards, show flyers, album covers, CD covers, brochures, and more. I have designed all types of marketing material and merchandise including: Vehicle Trailer Wraps, Promotional Tents, Banners, Window Signs, Posters, T-Shirts, Mugs, and even Keychain Fobs.

RECOMENDATIONS

"Jon’s patience and perseverance combined with the high quality of work he produces, makes him a tremendous asset. He is a great teacher and collaborator with the Creative Team and finds innovate workarounds. He has mastered the Salesforce platform developing and maintaining the frontend production of our Salesforce Communities websites. He helps the backend development teams with troubleshooting modules and code additions. If we can dream it up, he can find a way to make it happen."
Byron Nelson
Senior Digital Producer
Advance Auto Parts
"I highly recommend Jon Hamby as a Web Developer / Web Producer and can do guru. I was a lead to Jon and because he was so reliable, efficient and quick to ramp up I moved into a separate group and Jon updated the b2B site mostly on his own. He worked within a half setup salesforce environment with many restrictions and still produced excellent web pages and digital presentations for our sales people."
