I build the Shopify features and custom systems an off-the-shelf app stack can't handle. 15+ years of development work, including Shopify and custom builds for SEIKO USA, SEIKO Mexico, LabAlley, and Gaming Industry Networks. 🔍 DOES ONE OF THESE SOUND LIKE YOU? ⚡ "Our Shopify store works — it just can't do the one thing the business actually needs." ⚡ "We pay for six apps, and the team still does half the job by hand." ⚡ "Shopify, our ERP and three spreadsheets all disagree about inventory." ⚡ "A developer left mid-build. No documentation, no handover." ⚡ "We want AI in the product. We don't want to rebuild the product." If you recognized your situation there, that's the work I do. 🔗 ONE DEVELOPER, THE WHOLE CHAIN Shopify → Laravel / PHP → APIs → React / Next.js → AI Projects break at the seams — where the store meets the back end, or the back end meets someone else's API. I own every link, so there's no gap where the integration was supposed to be. 🛒 SHOPIFY & ECOMMERCE In plain terms: I make your store do things it wasn't built to do, and connect it to the rest of your business. - Custom Shopify and Shopify Plus development - Shopify theme development and Liquid customization - Shopify API integration — Admin and Storefront, REST and GraphQL - Custom Shopify features and private apps - Third-party app, ERP, CRM and payment gateway integration - Checkout, cart and storefront customization - eCommerce automation — orders, inventory, pricing, fulfillment - Store troubleshooting, performance and UX improvements 🚀 Best fit: your store already runs, and now it needs custom functionality, an integration, or a fix — not a rebuild. ⚙️ FULL-STACK DEVELOPMENT — LARAVEL, PHP, REACT, NEXT.JS In plain terms: when there's no app for it, I build the software. - Laravel and PHP application development - REST API development and third-party API integration - React and Next.js applications, TypeScript, responsive front ends - Custom admin dashboards, CMS and internal tools - Authentication, roles and permissions, subscription and credit systems - SaaS platforms and business workflow applications - Legacy code rescue, refactoring, debugging and ongoing maintenance 🔧 I also do the unglamorous part: tracing production bugs across frontend, backend, APIs, databases and third-party services. Fifteen years of that is why rescue projects find me. 🤖 AI & AUTOMATION In plain terms: I add AI to software you already have, instead of starting over. - AI integration into existing Shopify, Laravel and React/Next.js applications - Generative AI features and LLM / API integration - AI assistants, chatbots and conversational interfaces - AI agents and agentic workflows - RAG — answering from your own documents and data - Business process automation and intelligent automation 📌 My rule on AI: it goes in when it removes manual hours, shortens a response time, or makes the product measurably better. Not because a competitor announced it. 📈 WHAT YOU GET ⭐ 15+ years building production software for international clients, most of it direct rather than through marketplaces. 🧩 One developer across Shopify, back end, front end, APIs and AI — fewer handoffs, fewer gaps. 🗺️ Scope in writing before work starts: what's being built, what it costs, what's out of scope. 💡 Straight answers. If a request is a bad idea, or cheaper to solve another way, I'll say so. 🧾 Code your next developer can read — structured, documented, handed over properly. 🧠 WORK I'VE DONE - SEIKO USA and SEIKO Mexico — Shopify functionality, integrations, API work, eCommerce workflows, troubleshooting, frontend and backend improvements - LabAlley LLC — Shopify development and eCommerce workflows - HumanOp — personality assessment platform: assessment logic, authentication, APIs, admin and CMS, payments, subscription and credit systems, email verification, responsive web - AURA — frontend and backend development with AI integrations ✅ TYPICAL PROJECTS ✔ Add custom functionality to an existing Shopify store ✔ Replace an expensive app stack with code you own ✔ Connect Shopify to an ERP, CRM, 3PL, accounting system or internal tool ✔ Build or extend a Laravel, React or Next.js app, dashboard or SaaS platform ✔ Add AI — assistants, agents, RAG, document workflows — to a product that already exists ✔ Automate a manual process that costs your team hours every week ✔ Take over and finish a stalled or undocumented build ✔ Fix production bugs nobody else has been able to trace 💬 LET'S SCOPE IT Send me three things: what you're building or fixing, what you're working with now (Shopify? Laravel? something else?), and what "done" looks like. I'll come back with how I'd approach it, what it realistically involves, and whether I'm the right person for it — before either of us commits. I work with US and European clients daily and overlap with both.
