Available for contract or full-time
React / Next.js developer
I’m building in public on Nathe.tv — but I’m also open to the right role. If you need someone who can ship polished product fast, integrate modern tooling, and handle real-world dev chaos, I can help across modern React/Next builds and WordPress/PHP work too — including legacy PHP codebases and PHP frameworks. Let’s talk.
Best fit: React/Next.js, UI/UX polish, CMS + payments, dashboards, performance, plus WordPress/ACF/Gutenberg and PHP work.
Quick snapshot
What you get
Strong execution + clean UI + reliable delivery.
- Modern React + Next.js (App Router)
- Sanity CMS content builds
- Stripe payments + webhooks
- Firebase auth / Firestore patterns
- WordPress + ACF/Gutenberg + PHP fixes
- Git workflows + CI/CD pipelines
- Pixel-perfect Tailwind UI polish
Clean builds, fast shipping, calm comms.
Role types
Contract • Full-time • Sprint fixes
Strength
Shipping product with clean UI
Also solid in
WordPress, ACF/Gutenberg, PHP, CI/CD, cloud, Docker
What I do
Practical product work. Not theory. I build what users touch, and I make it feel right.
Front-end that feels premium
Clean UI, strong component systems, and responsive layouts that don’t fall apart on mobile.
Next.js builds that ship
App Router, server actions, API routes, caching, route structure, and production-ready patterns.
Back-end + integrations
Firebase/Firestore, Stripe payments, CMS setups, dashboards, auth, webhooks, and data flows.
Fixes, refactors, and speed
Tighten performance, clean up tech debt, and turn messy code into something maintainable.
Typical ask: “Build this feature, make it look premium, and ship it without drama.”
WordPress & PHP
Custom builds, legacy fixes, and modern Gutenberg + React where it makes sense.
Custom themes & components
Bespoke WP themes, clean templates, reusable components, responsive UI, and performance-focused builds.
Plugins, integrations & feature work
Custom plugin development, third-party integrations, payment flows, CRMs, forms, and practical features.
ACF + Gutenberg (including React blocks)
ACF flexible content, block patterns, custom Gutenberg blocks, and React-powered blocks.
Legacy PHP & frameworks
Debugging, safe refactors, and modernising without breaking production.
Typical ask: “Add this feature, build custom blocks, fix the weird bug, and make it fast.”
Where I fit best
Modern + legacy
Comfortable stepping into existing codebases and shipping improvements quickly.
- WordPress builds & feature development
- ACF + Gutenberg editing experiences
- Plugin work + integrations
- Legacy PHP debugging + safe refactors
- Performance improvements + cleanup
Git, CI/CD & Cloud
Branching strategy, PRs, pipelines, containers, and cloud deployments.
Git workflows (teams & solo)
Branching strategies, PRs, code reviews, resolving conflicts, release hygiene.
GitHub / GitLab / Bitbucket
Repo setup, permissions, policies, issue workflows, supporting existing process.
CI/CD pipelines
GitHub Actions patterns: lint/test/build, previews, env vars, secrets, safe releases.
Docker & containerised dev
Repeatable local dev, multi-service setups, better onboarding.
Cloud + hosting
AWS, Azure, GCP, Vercel deployments — plus troubleshooting when envs don’t behave.
Typical ask: “Help us get from code → deploy reliably, without breaking prod.”
Practical output
Ship with confidence
Comfortable wiring the full path from dev to production: envs, secrets, build steps.
- GitHub Actions / CI pipelines
- Preview deployments (Vercel or similar)
- Dockerised local environments
- Cloud hosting: AWS / Azure / GCP
- Release safety + troubleshooting
