×He did the job very competent.

'Competent' is an adjective and cannot modify a verb. 'Competently' is the adverb form needed to modify the verb 'did'.
×He speaks English competently enough.
✓He speaks English competently. / He is competent enough in English.
Using 'enough' directly after 'competently' is redundant and unnatural. 'Competently' already implies a sufficient level of skill. If emphasis on sufficiency is needed, rephrase using the adjective 'competent'.
×She is a competently manager.
✓She is a competent manager.
'Competently' is an adverb and cannot be used before a noun to describe it. The adjective 'competent' must be used to modify the noun 'manager'.
×He can competently fix the car.
✓He can fix the car competently.
While grammatically acceptable, placing 'competently' between the modal verb 'can' and the main verb 'fix' is often stylistically awkward. It is more natural to place it at the end of the clause or after the verb phrase.
×She performed competently than her colleague.
✓She performed more competently than her colleague.
'Competently' is an adverb. When making a comparative, you must use 'more' + adverb (more competently).
×I am not competently in accounting.
✓I am not competent in accounting. / I cannot do accounting competently.
After the verb 'be' (am/is/are/was/were), you need an adjective (competent), not an adverb (competently), to describe the subject.
