Robert A.
Web Developer | Wordpress, Custom Websites & Web Applications
Hello, I'm Robert! I've been building websites and software professionally since 2018, with a background in software engineering, technical support, and Linux systems. I build custom websites and business applications, and help clients troubleshoot, improve, and maintain existing systems. My experience covers both development and support, so I'm comfortable building new features as well as digging into logs, tracing errors, and figuring out why something isn't working. I've also been the lead and sole developer for a small business, handling development, maintenance, and day-to-day technical needs. If you have a website that needs work, a plugin that doesn't quite do what you need, or a business process you'd like to automate, I can help you figure out a practical approach and build it. My work includes: * Building websites from scratch and taking over existing projects * Developing custom WordPress plugins and features * Troubleshooting software, hosting, database, and integration issues * Migrating websites and handling DNS and email delivery * Connecting applications through APIs and databases * Building internal tools that reduce manual work * Supporting Linux servers and business phone systems On the WordPress side, I work with custom themes and plugins, Elementor, Gutenberg, WooCommerce, ACF, multisite, and forms. I'm comfortable working beyond the page builder when a project needs custom code or deeper troubleshooting. My software and engineering experience includes C#, .NET, Perl, PHP, JavaScript, PostgreSQL, MySQL, SQL Server, Linux, Bash, and Asterisk/PJSIP. I've worked on authentication, document processing, automation, API integrations, and internal business systems. I'm used to getting into unfamiliar code, finding the cause of a problem, and making changes that are maintainable. I'll explain what I find in plain language and keep you informed as the work moves forward. Feel free to reach out and tell me what you're working on. I'd be happy to talk through what you need.
