SUMMARY (OBJECTIVE)
WordPress developer (6+ years) who has shipped and maintained 6+ production sites across fintech,
SaaS, and e-commerce — comfortable moving fast across a portfolio of projects. Independent and
results-oriented: takes a task from idea to production without hand-holding, finds solutions where others see
dead ends. Every project ends with a measurable improvement: Google PageSpeed 25 → ~100 (all Core
Web Vitals in the green), new-site deployment automated from hours to minutes. Also builds custom AI
tooling (MCP servers) to speed up delivery. Working knowledge of Laravel and a full-stack background
(NestJS, React) beyond WordPress. Strong communicator, used to coordinating directly with PMs, QA, and
stakeholders.

Backend: PHP 8, OOP / SOLID, REST API design, Laravel 11 (queues, events, OAuth2), MySQL, PostgreSQL, Redis
Performance & SEO: Core Web Vitals optimization, technical SEO, JS/asset pipeline (defer, lazy loading),

Infrastructure: SSH, hosting control panels (cPanel, ScalaHosting), phpMyAdmin, Docker (local development

EXPERIENCE
PHP & Full-Stack Developer / Tech Lead — WizardsDev (Global Cloud Team)
Kyiv, Ukraine (Remote) · 06/2020 – 07/2026
• Built and maintained 6+ production WordPress sites across fintech, SaaS, and e-commerce — custom
themes and plugins, no page-builder shortcuts
• Optimized production sites to Google PageSpeed 25 → ~100 (all Core Web Vitals in the green): Redis caching,
MySQL query tuning, JS/asset pipeline (defer, lazy loading)
• Built multilingual WordPress sites (Polylang) supporting 5+ languages: locale-aware AJAX handlers, a custom
plugin managing identical slugs across languages
• Developed custom plugins: reCAPTCHA-protected forms, an SEO optimization plugin, WooCommerce pricing
logic synced with an external Google Sheets data source
• Integrated payment platforms, Zoho CRM (Web-to-Lead), and Google Sheets / Maps / Calendar APIs — auth
flows, error handling, data normalization

eliminated spam-driven outages (previously 1–3 per week)

minutes with existing designs; full SEO-checklist optimization reduced from 3 months to 2 weeks

an anti-fraud integration: fraudulent leads dropped from 15% to 0
