About

I’m a WordPress developer with 15 years in web development - the last ten as an independent contractor (Beardcoding), working remotely with design and marketing agencies in Europe, the US, Canada and New Zealand. Before going independent I was a tech lead at The White Label Agency, so I’m used to code review, estimates and mentoring, not just tickets.

What I do:
• Custom themes (ACF Flexible) - from Figma or AI-generated design to production
• WooCommerce builds and customisation, migrations, audits
• Performance work - caching, Core Web Vitals
• Accessibility (WCAG / EAA) and GDPR-minded builds
• Custom API integrations, WP-CLI / admin tooling
• Headless WordPress (Next.js)
• Mentoring client developers on workflow and code quality

I keep up with recent AI tooling and use it for speed and quality - reviewed by me before anything ships.

I do my best work in long-term collaborations where I learn the client’s stack and stay, but smaller projects are fine too. English B2, Ukrainian native. Happy to use time tracking. Portfolio: beardcoding.com
