What I'm looking for

I'm looking to build, extend, and scale commerce platforms where I can own complex PHP integrations, platform infrastructure, performance, security, and real production outcomes.

I've built and owned production, database-driven PHP commerce platforms for more than 18 years, from enterprise Adobe Commerce marketplaces to high-traffic Shopify, BigCommerce, and WooCommerce storefronts.

At McFadyen Digital, I delivered Adobe Commerce Cloud solutions for FedEx Office and UNFI, including GraphQL order search, marketplace integrations, B2B workflows, payment integrations, compliance totals, PHP upgrades, and performance and security remediation.

At Search Auto, I build custom Shopify and BigCommerce storefront apps and fitment-search backends across 11 client platforms. I also own the shared DigitalOcean infrastructure, catalog synchronization, embedded Shopify admin app, and storefront widgets.

Independently, I run Adobe Commerce and WooCommerce retail platforms including farma.uy and petitbaby.com.uy, handling integrations, pricing, catalog quality, CDN and WAF protection, infrastructure, email deliverability, and incident response.
