Senior WordPress Engineer and Solutions Architect with 13+ years of experience. I work with agencies and teams remotely — from brief to launch, not just execution.
I've spent 8 years in Japan working at a digital agency as a Solutions Architect — scoping projects, writing technical proposals, estimating timelines, and overseeing delivery. Before that, 5+ years freelancing internationally.
I also take on maintenance retainers for existing WordPress sites — security, performance, updates, and hosting.
I'm the person who can take a client brief, identify what they actually need, design the right architecture, and build it. I don't need hand-holding and I don't just execute tickets.
My English is strong, my communication is clear, and I'm used to working across cultures and timezones.
A curated selection. Most client work is confidential. These represent the range and depth I work with regularly.
Custom architecture providing each brand a distinct storefront experience within a single WordPress installation. Separate branding, pricing, and user flows per brand — without the overhead of multiple sites.
Multi-step application portal for a medical facility — complex conditional form logic, custom user roles, submission workflows and admin management. Fully built in WordPress with custom code, no bloat.
Modern Next.js frontend consuming WordPress REST API as a headless CMS. React-powered UX with WordPress editorial control — best of both worlds for a health and wellbeing brand.
Deep CRM integration with scheduled imports, real-time availability calculations, and dynamic CTAs based on unit capacity. Marketing team retained full Gutenberg page-building control without touching the complex backend logic.
Products added in WordPress CPT automatically sync to Stripe via JetEngine + JetFormBuilder. Replaced WooCommerce entirely — cleaner checkout, lower overhead, same payment reliability.
Offline-first patient management and referral system built for an NGO with field workers in low-connectivity areas. CouchDB backend with sync — data available offline, reconciled when connection returns.
These six projects are a small sample. Across PeoplePerHour, direct clients, and 8 years of agency work, I've delivered 200+ projects spanning e-commerce, healthcare, enterprise integrations, NGOs, and SaaS.
222 reviews →Most developers wait for a ticket. I'd rather understand the problem first — then design the right solution and build it. This is how I've delivered for agencies and clients for 13 years.
I read the brief, ask the right questions, and map the actual requirement — not just the stated one.
I design the solution: which tools, which patterns, what to avoid. I write this up so clients and teams are aligned before a line of code is written.
Clean, maintainable code. Custom when needed, off-the-shelf when it makes sense. I own the implementation.
Tested, documented, and handed over properly. Projects end — but they should leave behind something the client can actually maintain.
"Yet again — Muazzam was simply excellent to deal with. His knowledge and experience is simply invaluable. I cannot recommend him highly enough."
"Muazzam is proactive and organised. He can handle many balls in the air. He made me believe that we can reorganise our work — and finally we are on track."
"Knowledgeable, helpful, fair, honest individual. Will continue to work with you when it comes to web development."
"Very fast and highly professional. Will use again!"
I'm available for long-term remote roles or ongoing retainers with agencies in the EU, UK, and Australia. I work independently — you brief me, I deliver. No micromanagement required.
My target is a senior developer or technical lead role at $5,000–6,000/month. If that fits your budget and you need someone who can scope, build, and ship — let's talk.
