Shopify Systems & Data Engineering | 180+ Projects | Dashboards +
Hi! I'm Neel. Over the past half-decade, I've personally led 180+ projects for 80+ businesses across 25+ countries. More than half of those have been for e-commerce brands on Shopify, and the rest span finance, nonprofits, HR, and operations across a wide range of industries. I sit at the intersection of e-commerce engineering, data analytics, and process automation, and that combination is what makes my work effective. Most businesses don't have one neat problem. They have messy catalogs, disconnected systems, reporting that takes too long, and manual processes someone is doing by hand every day. I fix all of that and build it so it stays fixed. Shopify and e-commerce systems. Large-scale catalog engineering for stores with 10k to 100k+ SKUs, ShopifyQL-powered reporting, API integrations connecting Shopify to 3PLs, ERPs, ad platforms, and accounting tools. Custom apps for order management, fulfillment workflows, and inventory operations. I understand Shopify's architecture, its limitations, and how to build around them. Data analytics and dashboards. The full pipeline from raw data to decision-ready reporting. BigQuery for warehousing, Apps Script and Node.js for data pulls, Looker Studio and Google Sheets for visualization. Daily P&L, product-level ROAS, financial tracking, inventory forecasting, and operational KPIs. Automation and cloud infrastructure. Scheduled pipelines, API connectors, webhook workflows, automated report generation using Node.js, Apps Script, GCP App Engine, and Cloud Run. The goal is always the same: remove the human bottleneck from repeatable processes. Projects that show the range: Built a custom Order Management System for a Shopify brand with a 3-way shipping model, centralizing their entire order cycle into one interactive dashboard. Their ops team went from chasing updates across tools to managing everything from a single screen. Daily real Profit & Loss reporting at the product level, one of my most requested builds. Pulls data from Shopify, Meta, Google Ads, TikTok, Snapchat and calculates true profit and ROAS per product per channel every day. Stops founders from scaling campaigns that are secretly losing money. Inventory demand forecasting for fast-growing Shopify brands. Sales velocity, lead times, and seasonal patterns turned into reorder signals so stockouts stop killing ad efficiency and revenue. Data management system for a New York-based financial institution overseeing a $5+ million collateral debt portfolio. Real-time LTV tracking and debtor monitoring replacing disconnected spreadsheets. Web application for a Brooklyn-based NGO on GCP App Engine and MongoDB. 15 supervisors, 150+ field users, real-time coordination across locations, built to scale to tens of thousands. How I work: I lead a small cross-functional team of engineers, a data analyst, a designer, a Shopify specialist, and a project manager. I'm the single point of contact. I do the scoping, design the architecture, and stay in the weeds on delivery. Every engagement starts with a discovery call, followed by a phased proposal. We kick off with an MVP, iterate in weekly sprints with a client-visible project dashboard, and I offer ongoing support retainers after delivery. Brands I've worked with include Kawaii Slime Co. and 2PriceTags, along with financial institutions, NGOs, and businesses across many industries.
