About

Backend-leaning, but I ship the whole stack.

I'm a full-stack engineer with 6+ years of experience building products in the WordPress and WooCommerce ecosystem. I've spent most of my career working deep in the platform — building plugins, integrations, and features used by millions of websites. Most recently at OptinMonster (Awesome Motive), I owned features end-to-end across a product with 1M+ active users — from AI-powered brand detection and Gutenberg/FSE rebuilds to analytics exports handling 20k+ rows and 5k+ campaigns. Previously I was part of the core engineering team behind Dokan, a widely used WooCommerce multivendor marketplace plugin, and WP ERP (CRM, HRM, Accounting). I use AI across planning, architecture, implementation, testing and review — as a capable partner, with human judgment in the loop for security, payments and database changes. Day-to-day: PHP, WordPress, Gutenberg, Laravel, Node.js, React, Vue, TypeScript, REST APIs, CI/CD with GitHub Actions.
