Senior web developer specializing in Shopify ecommerce, performance optimization, and conversion-focused full-stack delivery.
What I'm looking for
I’m a Senior Web Developer with over four years of experience building scalable ecommerce and web solutions across Shopify, WordPress, React, and Laravel ecosystems. I specialize in storefront ownership, performance optimization, and conversion-focused engineering that turns technical decisions into measurable user outcomes.
Currently, I’m leading Shopify development at Zero Lifestyle, a wearable technology brand serving more than 1.5 million customers. I own the entire Shopify storefront, drive new feature development, and guide theme architecture and platform-level decisions—while building in-house automation tools that replaced manual workflows and reduced operational overhead by an estimated 60%.
Earlier, as a Frontend Developer and Team Lead at Tafsol Technologies, I managed a team of five developers, led code reviews and mentoring, and cut average page load times by 40% through performance audits, asset optimization, and caching strategies. Before that, I delivered responsive, SEO-friendly WordPress sites at The Digital Verge Agency, achieving a 95% client satisfaction rating and accelerating future delivery timelines by about 30% with reusable component libraries and modular themes.
