Freelance engineer. Ecommerce, security, and the things that fall between.
Forty years of shipping software, most of it spent making online stores faster, safer, and less fragile. UK background, working Bangkok hours.
Three things, done properly.
- 01
Ecommerce builds and rescues
Magento 2 (Adobe Commerce and OSS) is home turf. Also Shopify, WooCommerce, and headless setups. Migrations, performance work, and the awkward inheritance jobs.
- 02
Security audits and hardening
Code review, configuration review, and incident triage for live stores and web apps. I find the gaps, write the fix, and leave a playbook behind.
- 03
Web apps, end to end
Next.js, TypeScript, Node. Greenfield builds and unsticking existing teams. Server-rendered by default, sensible about what runs in the browser.
A few of the harder jobs.
