Businesses often need more than just a developer. They need someone who can understand the requirement properly, suggest the right approach, and build a product that works smoothly in real use. I help startups, founders, and growing businesses build web applications, mobile apps, SaaS products, MVPs, and custom business platforms with a strong focus on clarity, performance, and long term scalability. With 15+ years of experience in software development, I have worked on projects from idea stage to launch, and also on existing platforms that needed improvements, feature expansion, workflow refinement, or complete redevelopment. My work covers both frontend and backend, so clients do not need to manage multiple developers for one product. I focus on understanding the business goal first, then translating it into a practical and reliable solution. This helps reduce confusion during development and keeps the project aligned with the real requirement. **What I can help with:** ---------------------------- • Custom web application development • Mobile app development (Hybrid and Native) • SaaS product development • MVP development • Admin panels and dashboards • API development and third party integrations • Ecommerce and marketplace platforms • Maintenance and feature enhancement of existing products **Tech stack I work with includes:** React, Node.js, Laravel, Flutter, Python, WordPress, Shopify, Swift, Kotlin, and API based integrations. Clients usually appreciate working with me because I bring clear communication, structured execution, dependable support, and a practical approach to solving product challenges. Whether you need to build a product from scratch, improve an existing application, or develop a stable MVP with the right technical foundation, I can help move the project forward in a clear and efficient way. If you are looking for a developer who can combine technical execution with a strong understanding of business needs, I would be glad to discuss the scope and suggest the right approach.

Most growing e-commerce businesses don't have a revenue problem. They have a profitability, inventory, working capital, and cash flow problem. Revenue grows—but cash disappears. Inventory increases. Marketing spend rises faster than profit. Founders struggle to understand which products and channels actually make money. That's where I help. I'm a Chartered Accountant (CA), CFA Level III Cleared, Ex-PwC Transaction Advisory Associate, and currently a VP at a boutique US Investment Bank. I work as a Fractional CFO & FP&A partner for founder-led e-commerce businesses, helping improve profitability, manage inventory and working capital, forecast cash, and build financial systems for better decision-making. I currently support three $25M+ annual revenue DTC e-commerce brand and have previously worked with a $120M+ annual revenue e-commerce business. My focus is simple: Turn financial data into clear decisions about profit, cash, inventory, pricing, marketing, and growth. 💵 Fractional CFO & FP&A • 13-Week & 12-Month Cash Flow Forecasting • Annual Budgets & Rolling Forecasts • Driver-Based Financial Models • Forecast vs. Actual & Scenario Analysis • Management, Board & Investor Reporting • KPI Dashboards • Working Capital Forecasting 💰 Profitability & Margin Improvement • CM1, CM2, CM3 & CM4 Contribution Margins • SKU, Product & Channel Profitability • Pricing & Gross Margin Optimization • Discount & Promotion Analysis • Shipping, Fulfillment & Marketplace Fees • Returns & Refund Analysis • EBITDA Improvement & Cost Reduction The goal is to identify where you make money, where margin is leaking, and what actions can improve profitability. 📦 Inventory & Working Capital • Inventory & Demand Forecasting • SKU-Level Purchase & Reorder Planning • Stock Ageing, Slow-Moving & Excess Inventory • Inventory Turnover & Stock Cover • Supplier Payment Planning • Cash Conversion Cycle Optimization I help answer a critical question: How much inventory should we buy—and when—without creating unnecessary cash pressure? 📈 Marketing & Customer Economics • ROAS • CAC • MER • LTV • Customer Payback Period • Cohort Analysis • Marketing Spend Efficiency • Retention & Repeat Purchase Rates • AOV & Channel Contribution Margin I connect marketing metrics to actual contribution profit and cash flow—not just revenue growth. 📉 Dashboards & Financial Visibility • Daily Profitability & Cash Dashboards • 13-Week Cash Forecast • Inventory & Working Capital Dashboards • Executive KPI Dashboard • Marketing Performance Dashboard • SKU, Channel & CM1–CM4 Profitability • Budget vs. Actual Reporting 🛠 Platforms & Systems E-Commerce: Shopify • Shopify Plus • Amazon Seller Central • Amazon Vendor Central • TikTok Shop • WooCommerce • eBay • Etsy Accounting & ERP: Xero • QuickBooks Online • QuickBooks Desktop • SAP Business One • NetSuite • Sage • Microsoft Dynamics 365 Payments: Stripe • Shopify Payments • PayPal • Airwallex • Wise • Revolut • Amazon Pay Inventory & Fulfillment: Cin7 • Inventory Planner • Unleashed • Brightpearl • Linnworks • ShipStation • ShipBob • Amazon FBA Modeling & BI: Microsoft Excel • Google Sheets • Power Query • Power Pivot • Power BI • Looker Studio Marketing & Analytics: Meta Ads • Google Ads • TikTok Ads • Amazon Advertising • GA4 • Shopify Analytics • Klaviyo AI & Automation: ChatGPT • Claude • Microsoft Copilot • Zapier • Make • Power Automate 💵 Why Clients Hire Me I'm not a traditional accountant who simply prepares reports after the month is over. I help founders understand what is happening, why it's happening, and what to do next. I help answer questions like: • Which SKUs and channels actually make money? • Why is cash decreasing despite revenue growth? • How much inventory should we purchase? • Where are margins leaking? • Are discounts and promotions profitable? • Which costs should we reduce first? • What will cash look like over the next 13 weeks and 12 months? • How can we improve EBITDA without slowing growth? If you're looking for a Fractional CFO or FP&A partner who understands Shopify, Amazon, TikTok Shop, inventory, cash flow, pricing, contribution margins, and e-commerce unit economics, let's talk. 💵 Let's build a finance function that gives you complete visibility into your business and helps you make faster, better decisions.

I'm a SEO Specialist and WordPress Developer with 5+ years of experience helping businesses get found on Google and now on AI platforms like ChatGPT, Gemini, Claude and Perplexity. Most SEO freelancers optimize for Google. I optimize for where search is heading. I combine traditional SEO, GEO (Generative Engine Optimization), and AEO (Answer Engine Optimization) so your site stays visible no matter how search evolves — in browser results, AI-generated answers, and voice search. What I deliver: SEO Strategy and Implementation — Full audits, keyword research, competitor gap analysis, schema markup, internal linking, meta optimization, and E-E-A-T improvements that build lasting authority. GEO and AEO Optimization — Structured content, FAQ markup, conversational query targeting, and AI snippet optimization so your site gets cited by ChatGPT, Gemini, and Google AI Overviews. WordPress Development — Custom builds, WooCommerce, Core Web Vitals optimization, speed improvements, security hardening, migrations, and ongoing maintenance — all SEO-first by design. Local SEO — Google Business Profile optimization, map pack rankings, geo-targeted keywords, local citations, and review strategy for location-based businesses. Tools I use: SEMrush, Ahrefs, Screaming Frog, SurferSEO, Rank Math, Yoast, WP Rocket, Google Search Console, GA4, Elementor Pro, WooCommerce, Cloudflare, and Looker Studio. My process is straightforward: audit, strategy, execution, tracking, and continuous optimization to stay ahead of algorithm updates and AI search trends. I focus on qualified traffic — visitors who are ready to buy, enquire, or sign up. Not vanity metrics. Your audience is already searching. Let's make sure they find you — on Google and on AI. Send me a message and let's look at your site together.
