Software Engineer - Shopify Developer

Building, migrating, and optimizing ecommerce stores at scale.

I’ve spent the past nine years engineering Shopify and Laravel & WordPress systems for fast-moving ecommerce brands. My background is software engineering, but my day-to-day is solving the messy, technical problems that actually move revenue: migrating huge catalogs without breaking data integrity, building custom Shopify features, optimizing performance, and automating workflows with code and AI.

I work with modern stacks and AI-assisted development to build faster and deliver cleaner solutions. At Perform Digital Media (PDM), my work spans deep technical development, engineering management, and client communication – bridging the gap between code, design, and business outcomes.

What I do daily

• Build new Shopify pages, landing pages, and custom sections
• Write custom JavaScript, Liquid, and Shopify Functions
• Develop and integrate custom Shopify apps
• Implement checkout extensibility and B2B functionality
• Handle CMS migrations, including Python-based automation for 10k+ product imports
• Perform complex SQL migrations for WordPress and Shopify
• Set up performance optimization, speed tuning, analytics, and debugging
• Integrate third-party apps and fix their conflicts
• Ensure pixel-perfect builds from Figma
• Lead designers and developers, delegate tasks, and review code
• Manage client communication, calls, expectations, and delivery timelines
• Keep multiple projects running smoothly while keeping clients happy

Background

I hold a Bachelor’s in Software Engineering and have worked with global brands including Google, Johnson & Johnson, Cosy House Collection, Bare Home, Linjer, and Hey Nutrition. My work blends engineering, CRO principles, and product thinking — focusing on reliability, performance, and revenue impact.

Before specializing in Shopify and backend systems, I also worked in 3D (Cinema 4D, Octane Render) and shipped projects for major brands. That experience gives me an advantage when working with design-heavy builds and cross-functional teams.
