Denis F.
Full Stack Developer | Laravel | WordPress | PHP, React.js
I design, architect, and develop modern web applications and scalable digital platforms for companies and startups. My focus is robust backend systems, modern frontend development, API-driven architecture, and scalable WordPress solutions — from Laravel and React applications to headless WordPress platforms and custom plugin ecosystems. ⭐️ Laravel & Modern JavaScript Applications I build sophisticated web applications using PHP/Laravel and modern JavaScript frameworks such as React.js, Next.js, and Vue.js. My work focuses on maintainable architecture, scalable backend systems, and clean frontend experiences for digital products and SaaS platforms. I help clients define the technical roadmap, assess complexity, and find the minimum viable solution before development starts. I’m comfortable working on both new product development and long-term technical support. Typical work includes: — API-driven applications and SaaS products — Third-party integrations (Stripe, Monei, Google Maps Platform, GEO/location services, CRMs, automation platforms) — Dashboard and admin systems — Multi-step business workflows and internal tools — Docker-based local and production environments — CI/CD pipelines with GitHub Actions and Bitbucket Pipelines — Ongoing product development and technical maintenance 🛠 Scalable WordPress Development & Headless Architectures I work with WordPress as an application platform — not as a page builder tool. My focus is scalable custom WordPress development using modern engineering practices, including Roots stack (Bedrock/Sage/Trellis), custom plugin development, headless WordPress architectures, and decoupled frontends powered by Next.js or React. I help companies that outgrow traditional WordPress setups modernize their stack, improve maintainability, and scale their platforms properly. What I typically work on: — Custom WordPress plugins and business logic — Headless WordPress with GraphQL/REST APIs — Bedrock, Sage, Composer-based workflows — Next.js/React frontends connected to WordPress — Performance optimization and scalable architecture — Migration from legacy WordPress setups — Long-term maintainable development workflows What I do NOT do: — ThemeForest template tweaks — Elementor or page builder websites — Quick cosmetic fixes and “small tweaks” work — No-code solutions — Rush projects with unrealistic deadlines 🚀 Technical Consulting for Growing Digital Products I consult startups and growing companies that need help scaling their product architecture, improving development processes, or moving beyond fragile legacy solutions. I can help with: — Technical audits and architecture planning — Product roadmap and MVP definition — Scaling WordPress-based businesses — Development workflow improvements — CI/CD and deployment processes — Migration planning and modernization WHY ME❓ — 13+ years building websites, applications, and digital products — Strong full-stack background across backend, frontend, DevOps, and product thinking — Experience working with startups, agencies, and long-term product teams — 3,000+ hours on Upwork with long-term client relationships — Comfortable with both legacy systems and modern architectures I focus on solving business problems first, architecture second, and code third. Good engineering is not about adding complexity — it’s about building systems that can evolve, scale, and remain maintainable over time.
