02 / WHY WORK WITH ME
I'm Simone Zuurveld, a freelance Magento 2 and Hyvä developer from Hilversum, the Netherlands, and project manager of the hyva.io redesign. Besides being a developer, I'm an entrepreneur, and that shows in how I work.
I have run an online store myself. I know what an outage on a Friday afternoon costs, and I think about what a change will bring you.
You work with me directly, with no account manager in between. Short lines, clear agreements and no surprises afterwards.
Following Magento and Hyvä standards, in Git, and tested before anything goes live. So another developer can pick it up later too.
I look beyond today: how do ChatGPT, Perplexity and Google AI find your products? I take that into account in everything I build.
03 / HOW I WORK
No thick proposals or vague projects. Instead: a clear approach, an honest estimate up front and something to look at along the way.
A no-obligation call about your store, your goals and what is holding you back.
A concrete plan and an hour estimate or fixed price, before anything gets built.
In small steps, with interim deliveries you can review and test yourself.
I guide the go-live and stay available for maintenance and further development.
04 / FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
It depends on the job. I work on an hourly basis or for a fixed price per project. After a short call you get an estimate up front, so you know where you stand.
Yes. First I map out which modules and customisations you use and which of them already work with Hyvä. Then we migrate step by step, so your store keeps running.
Yes. One-off changes, bug fixes, updates and ongoing maintenance are all welcome.
I work remotely from Hilversum for online stores in the Netherlands and Belgium, and in English for international teams as well.
That depends on my schedule. Send me a message with what you need and when, and I will let you know when I can start.
