Troubleshoot and resolve technical issues across plugins, integrations, and code.

Core skills and experience
Deep expertise in WordPress backend development, hooks, filters, and architecture.




Robust experience with custom plugin and theme development.
Solid understanding of HTML, CSS, JavaScript, and jQuery.
Hands-on experience with Bootstrap and frontend frameworks.
