Developing and maintaining a wholesale marketplace platform — working on both the admin portal and the partner central (vendor/supplier side). This role gave me a solid understanding of multi-vendor marketplace architecture, user role management, and building portals that real business users actually rely on daily. ✦ Built and maintained the admin portal — including order management, vendor approvals, and platform-level settings. ✦ Developed the Partner Central dashboard where suppliers manage their own products, orders, and payouts. ✦ Implemented role-based access control to separate admin, partner, and buyer permissions cleanly. ✦ Integrated wholesale pricing logic — tiered pricing, bulk order rules, and partner-specific catalogs. ✦ Worked on the full marketplace flow from product listing to order processing and partner settlement.
