What I'm looking for

I seek senior engineering roles focused on WordPress/WooCommerce, scalable architectures, open-source contribution, strong testing culture, and mentoring opportunities within collaborative, quality-driven teams.

I am a Senior Full Stack Web Developer with over a decade building enterprise-grade WordPress and WooCommerce solutions, contributing to core projects and leading open-source initiatives like WP-CLI. I focus on scalable architectures, performance optimization, and automated QA to deliver reliable, testable code.

I have led large feature efforts and migrations, authored and maintained major WooCommerce extensions, and implemented E2E testing frameworks at scale. I mentor through code reviews, advocate for engineering standards, and take ownership to ensure timely, high-quality product delivery.
