What I do 03 practices

Full stack engineering

One person, whole product. Schema to ship.

Django, FastAPI, Laravel, NestJS and Next.js — chosen per problem, not per habit. I own the parts nobody volunteers for: migrations, billing edge cases, queues, deploys.

  • Product architecture
  • API + data modelling
  • React / Next.js front ends
  • Payments & billing
  • Queues, jobs, realtime
  • CI/CD, observability

AI engineering

Models are cheap. Good AI products are not.

Retrieval that actually retrieves, agents with guardrails, evals before launch. AI that survives contact with real users and real latency budgets.

  • RAG & vector search
  • Agentic workflows
  • Evals & guardrails
  • Streaming UX
  • Fine-tuning / distillation
  • Cost & latency budgets

WordPress plugin development

Nine plugins on wordpress.org. 14,000+ installs.

WooCommerce extensions that survive core updates, security review and merchants doing unexpected things. Written to the plugin handbook, not around it.

  • WooCommerce extensions
  • Plugin API & hooks
  • Gutenberg blocks
  • WP REST API
  • WP-CLI tooling
  • wordpress.org review
