About

I’m Griffin Hobbs, a full-stack developer with 5+ years of experience building high-traffic web applications, headless e-commerce experiences, and content platforms. I’ve led development on projects reaching 2M page views and 100K unique visitors in their first six months, and I’ve built custom headless storefronts from architecture through deployment using modern React-based tooling.

I specialize in React, Next.js, Astro, TypeScript, and Shopify/WordPress development, with a strong focus on SEO, performance optimization, and responsive design. From integrating Shopify Headless CMS with GraphQL to supporting SEO-friendly website updates and migrations, I enjoy turning product goals into fast, maintainable experiences that convert, whether I’m freelancing or working in a team environment.
