Can't find a Pimcore specialist
Pimcore developers are rare. Agencies and companies often search for weeks to find someone who knows Symfony, Pimcore bundles and CoreShop.
Existing installation is stuck
Pimcore updates are complex – outdated bundles, breaking changes, data object migrations. Without a specialist, it's a risky endeavour.
Agency needs short-term reinforcement
Project is running, deadline approaching, but the internal team isn't enough. Looking for a freelancer who can get up to speed with existing projects.
Pimcore support that works
PHP developer with Symfony experience
I'm Vincent Kilchherr – a freelance PHP developer based in Basel, focused on CMS systems and custom web applications.
Pimcore is built on Symfony – a framework I work with daily. I support agencies and companies with the development, maintenance and extension of Pimcore installations – without a long onboarding period and without the overhead of a large agency.
Bundle Development & Pimcore Extensions
I develop custom Pimcore bundles that integrate seamlessly into existing installations. From simple adjustments to complex data-driven solutions with custom data object classes.
- Custom bundles following Symfony standards
- Custom data object classes and field types
- Integration of third-party APIs and interfaces
CoreShop E-Commerce Development
CoreShop is the e-commerce framework built on Pimcore. I assist with setup, customisation and extension – from payment integrations to individualised checkout flows.
- Payment integration (Payrexx, Stripe, Saferpay)
- Custom checkout logic and pricing rules
- Product variants, categories, filter systems
Takeover & Maintenance of Existing Installations
You have a running Pimcore website without an active developer? I take over existing installations, analyse the state and ensure stable operation – updates, bug fixing, further development.
- Analysis and documentation of existing installations
- Pimcore version upgrades and bundle migrations
- Ongoing maintenance and support on an hourly basis
Freelance support for agencies
I work discreetly as external reinforcement – white-label or directly in your team. Git, Jira, Slack: I adapt to your workflow.
