Senior WordPress Engineer · AI & Automation · UI/UX
Ten years of senior WordPress and web engineering, from custom platforms and e-commerce to AI content pipelines. Most recently: leading all engineering for a 14,000-product marketplace selling in 100+ countries.

Representative phases from recent WordPress engagements.
As the sole engineering lead at Microrage Solutions, I owned every layer of this global PSD-mockup marketplace: Easy Digital Downloads architecture, licensing and delivery automation, payments, performance, and SEO for thousands of indexed product pages.
The catalogue was the bottleneck: every product needed a unique, SEO-optimized description. So I built a custom WordPress plugin around the OpenAI API that generates them autonomously: schema-aware, brand-voiced, and refined through iterative prompt engineering until editors approved output untouched.
Bayan Health needed a real telehealth system, not just a storefront. So I built mdi-sync, a ~75-class, namespaced, OOP WordPress plugin that turns WooCommerce into a compliant clinical connector: it creates an MDI intake voucher at checkout (keeping PHI off WordPress), listens to clinical webhooks, and advances a set of custom order statuses end to end.
It routes each prescription across four pharmacy partners (two outbound place-order APIs, two inbound webhook integrations) and auto-refunds the patient if a physician declines the case, with no manual reconciliation. The whole thing went live on the production domain, cut over one provider at a time behind safety toggles.
Custom WordPress platforms and plugins for high-traffic marketplaces, architected in PHP/MySQL and core APIs, not theme assemblies.
Production AI on a live 14,000-product marketplace, measured in editor approval and time saved, not experiments.
Wireframes to live WordPress. Figma, Adobe XD, and Creative Suite, then built pixel-perfect with user testing in the loop.
WordPress plugins maintained in public repositories.
