Upwork Certified Front-End Developer with a decade-long official role in the Avada Technical Support team and a proven track record in SEO, WooCommerce, and multilingual websites.
Unlike generalist developers, I work exclusively with the Avada theme. For over 13 years, I’ve built and optimized websites using Avada’s full potential, from complex layouts with the Avada Builder to seamless integrations with WPML, WooCommerce, and Yoast SEO.
Why Work With Me:
- I don’t juggle themes — I only work with Avada.
- I don’t outsource — I handle every project personally.
- I don’t guess — I apply what I’ve learned from direct product experience and real-world results.
My workflow is simple and effective:
I design in Figma, focusing on clean, conversion-driven UI/UX. Then, I develop it 100% in Avada, optimizing for speed, responsiveness, and SEO performance
What I Bring:
- Official Avada Support Experience (11+ years) – I’ve supported thousands of users worldwide, solving high-level issues and guiding best practices straight from the source.
- SEO That Delivers – Years of experience with Yoast SEO and technical on-page optimizations that boost rankings and visibility.
- WPML & Polylang – I build multilingual sites, with full compatibility and smooth user experience.
- WooCommerce Specialist – From setup to customization and speed tuning, I make your store run better and convert more.
- Performance & Security – Using the best tools and my expertise, I ensure your site is fast and secure.
If you're looking for someone who knows Avada inside and out, understands how to build a website with SEO in mind from day one, and can handle both design and development in one streamlined process, I am the expert you need.
Let’s turn your Avada website into something exceptional. LET'S GET TO WORK.

⭐ Expert Vetted | Top 1% on Upwork | 7,000+ Hours | 16+ Years Experience
The projects that land on my desk usually have one thing in common: they're the ones that can't afford to fail twice. Complex WooCommerce builds, WordPress rescues, AI automations that must run reliably in production that's my lane.
I'm a senior full-stack engineer with 13+ years of experience. On Upwork: Expert-Vetted (top 1% of freelancers), Top Rated Plus, 100% Job Success, $200K+ earned across 7,000+ hours. Also vetted by Toptal. I founded Devnetix, a Dubai-based development agency but here, you work with me directly.
🔹 ENTERPRISE WORDPRESS & WOOCOMMERCE
Custom themes and plugins built to WPVIP-grade standards Bedrock/Sage architecture, ACF, Gutenberg blocks, headless WordPress with Next.js, and complex WooCommerce (subscriptions, memberships, multi-gateway payments). Recent work includes a 1,100+ hour front-end engagement on a Bedrock/SASS stack and a full React-to-WordPress migration, both 5-star.
🔹 FULL-STACK DEVELOPMENT
Next.js + TypeScript, React, Node.js, PHP/Laravel, Supabase, PostgreSQL. REST API design and third-party integrations (Stripe, Twilio, HubSpot, SendGrid). I build SEO-friendly, Core-Web-Vitals-green applications not just websites.
🔹 AI ENGINEERING & AUTOMATION
n8n and Make workflow automation, LLM integrations (OpenAI, Claude), RAG systems, AI agents, and CRM automation pipelines. Recent: a ChatGPT Commerce API integration for an e-commerce client. If you're trying to figure out where AI actually saves your team hours, I can scope that with you.
🔹 CLOUD & DEPLOYMENT (AWS)
I deploy and scale what I build: Lambda, S3, DynamoDB, ECS, API Gateway, Docker, CI/CD with GitHub Actions. Your project doesn't end at "works on my machine."
HOW I WORK Clear scoping before I quote. Honest timelines. Tested, documented code. Reachable across US/EU/AU time zones. In my clients' words: "one of the most exceptionally talented developers I've encountered."
Send me a short description of your build, rescue, or automation. I'll reply with questions and a concrete plan, usually within a few hours.
