Available to hire
I’m Paulo Ramalho Silva, a web developer with 15+ years of experience, specializing in front-end and back-end development. I build custom WordPress solutions from scratch, including headless architectures, and I’ve developed API endpoints and integrations to connect WordPress with React/Next.js front-ends. I also excel at pixel-perfect UI design and am comfortable debugging complex issues across front-end and back-end stacks.
I’m proficient with HTML/CSS/SASS, PHP, JavaScript, and modern frameworks, plus tools like Figma, Illustrator, Photoshop, XD, and WordPress ecosystem plugins (Yoast SEO, WPML, Elementor, ACF, WooCommerce). I thrive both autonomously and in team environments, remote or on-site, delivering reliable, scalable WordPress and web applications with an emphasis on performance and security.
