I'm a Lead Software Engineer (CMS & Frontend / Hosting Support) at Mandy Technologies in Coimbatore, India. I've spent over a decade building fast, maintainable web products, from marketing sites to custom CMS platforms.
I'm a WordPress developer at heart, focused on performance, scalability and clean code. I build custom plugins, block-based themes and SEO-friendly front-ends with OOP PHP, React and SCSS, and I take them all the way to production: CI/CD, server migrations, DNS, hosting and Cloudflare. We build for Vital, a digital agency in Portsmouth, NH, USA, and its clients worldwide.
