Niko Minadze
@nikominadze
Implementation-heavy technical SEO and web systems engineer building crawlers, tracking, and AI workflows.
What I'm looking for
I’m an implementation-heavy web systems engineer/operator with 20+ years of web/software experience and 13+ years across technical SEO, analytics, performance, WordPress/WooCommerce, ecommerce operations, growth systems, backend tooling, and AI-assisted workflow implementation.
I build and repair practical systems—websites, crawlers, dashboards, tracking stacks, data pipelines, internal tools, and operator workflows—so teams can ship with confidence. My specialty is ambiguous production problems: isolate the failure path, ship or fix the system, verify results, and hand off clearly.
I’m strongest when SEO is one high-leverage layer inside broader web, growth, and operations systems. I own crawl/indexation repair, schema/JSON-LD accuracy, redirect/canonical hygiene, and JavaScript SEO evidence—then connect it to attribution and conversion QA through GA4/GTM and Google Ads.
I also lead performance and infrastructure work (Core Web Vitals, Cloudflare/CDN/WAF/cache tuning, DNS/SSL, and WordPress performance), plus AI-assisted automation with human-in-the-loop review. Recent highlights include shipping a WordPress Crawl Fetch Inspector and building Docker-first crawling and analytics workflows that produce actionable evidence quickly.
