The side the portfolio doesn't show: technical decisions, useful mistakes, and the process behind every project.
An author's site online since 2021, with a new store built on top and one catch: anyone clicking buy ended up on a checkout page for a different product, from a different year. Full WordPress rebuild, three payment methods and 32 files delivered automatically.
A base-revalidation automation sat idle for three days and nobody noticed. Every link in the chain behaved exactly as designed, including the safety interlock that stopped everything. The defect was not the interlock: it was that nobody was responsible for noticing it had tripped.
A consumer lending company needed to reach 391 contacts from its own base over WhatsApp — no unofficial API, no burning the number, and no depending on someone pressing a button every day. What we delivered: Meta’s official API in Coexistence mode, a Make scenario with rate control, and an entire operation that fits in a spreadsheet.
A theatre director turned communication mentor had a site that had been live for months. The home page’s live title read "You can set this title from the customizer", the visible phone number was an American placeholder and the footer address was in Alabama. Being online is not the same as being published.
A restoration and hand-binding atelier needed to show the before and after of its own work. The site shipped with a fully custom theme, no page builder, 24 photos compressed from 47 MB down to 1.1 MB, self-hosted video and a 156 KB initial payload — 13 days ahead of the contracted deadline.
The brief was an on-page SEO audit. The diagnosis found something more serious: the entire site was a single indexable page, and "About", "Teaching" and "Contact" were anchors on the same URL. Without a content architecture, optimising titles and meta tags would be polishing a door that opens onto nothing.
A news portal with nine years of archives arrived with a site that was "misconfigured". It was not misconfiguration: it was an active breach, with a backdoor that hid itself from the administrator and queried a contract on the Polygon blockchain to find out where to fetch its payload.
A solar energy project management system already in production, with 137 active projects. No new stack, no rewrite — incremental work with a database backup before every change.
The sales funnel stopped reporting events for 17 days and nobody noticed. The audit found the root cause — plus a Lead event that had never existed since the original install.
Our own technical demo: WhatsApp self-service automation with identity validation and API-driven execution. The most common mistake in this kind of project is leaving production credentials scattered inside the visual flow.
Our own technical demo: a multi-tenant public administration system with isolation at the database level, not just in the query. If an application bug forgets the filter, Postgres denies it anyway.
iOS checkout crashing at payment? Root-cause diagnosis of an EVO API integration bug — and the middleware built to fix it for good.
French casino spam injected via a compromised database, not an outdated plugin. Full 5-phase cleanup — from malware removal to QA.
19.8s LCP even after Core Web Vitals optimization. The cause: an unpurged Cloudways Varnish cache hiding real performance gains.
