What I'm looking for

I seek back-end or WordPress roles where I can lead API integrations, build e-commerce systems, optimize performance, and deliver UX improvements. I'm open to remote or office work and value ownership, clear requirements, and growth.

I build back-end systems and WordPress solutions that solve real user problems. I take projects end-to-end — from design to large e-commerce deployments.

At Empat I integrated third-party APIs to build a full-featured loyalty program. Previously I developed custom WooCommerce solutions and created custom OOP WordPress themes, improving UX across multiple sites.

I integrated Salesforce CRM with WordPress forms to streamline lead flow and diagnosed and optimized slow SQL queries for better performance. I also created Gutenberg blocks using ACF and worked with various payment gateways.

My toolkit includes PHP, Laravel, WooCommerce, Drupal, JavaScript, CSS/SCSS, Ajax, SQL and SEO. I'm open to remote or office roles where I can own integrations, improve performance, and build e-commerce solutions.
