CrispyCohd (@crispycohd) – WordPress user profile

Bio

I’m a Senior Technical Lead Engineer with over 15 years of experience building and scaling WordPress-based systems. My background spans frontend, backend, and architecture, with a strong focus on performance, maintainability, and developer experience. I’ve led teams, designed complex integrations, and delivered production-critical platforms for businesses ranging from startups to enterprise organisations.

Today, I focus on creating high-quality WordPress plugins and tools with an emphasis on clarity, reliability, and real-world usability. I value pragmatic engineering, long-term maintainability, and contributing software that fits naturally into the wider WordPress ecosystem rather than fighting against it.

Interests

Advanced WordPress development, REST API design, headless architectures, Full Site Editing, modern JavaScript and React workflows, and cross-disciplinary product development spanning web, games, and apps.

WordPress Origin Story

I started working with WordPress at 17 while trying to publish a website for a game I was building. What began as curiosity quickly turned into a career that has spanned over 15 years. During that time, I’ve worked across the full spectrum of the ecosystem—supporting small businesses, building bespoke platforms, and leading large-scale enterprise teams.

After years in agency environments and senior technical leadership roles, I reached a point where repetitive site builds no longer aligned with how I wanted to work. I founded my own venture to focus on building thoughtfully engineered products that solve real problems and contribute back to the WordPress ecosystem in a more sustainable, long-term way.
