I’m currently working at Start Storez as a Shopify Application Developer, where I design and build complete Shopify applications end-to-end—from idea validation and planning to development, testing, deployment, and long-term maintenance. I take full ownership of the product lifecycle, turning business requirements into scalable, secure, and high-performance solutions that solve real-world problems for merchants. My work includes building public Shopify apps, custom integrations, automation tools, and SaaS-style solutions using modern technologies such as React, Remix, Node.js, PostgreSQL, and Shopify APIs. I create clean and responsive admin dashboards, real-time features, API integrations, payment logic, and advanced customization based on products, collections, tags, vendors, or user behavior. I also focus on performance optimization, secure authentication, scalable database architecture, and cloud deployment to ensure apps remain reliable as businesses grow. Beyond coding, I collaborate closely with product managers, designers, and merchants to understand their goals and challenges. I analyze workflows, design smart systems, and implement automation that improves efficiency, reduces manual work, and increases store conversions. From UI/UX improvements to backend architecture and production monitoring, I ensure every solution is built with quality, maintainability, and business impact in mind. My goal is not just to build apps, but to create powerful Shopify solutions that help eCommerce brands grow faster, operate smarter, and deliver better experiences to their customers.
