What does a Magento 2 lead developer actually do?
I own technical direction and delivery: architecture decisions, team coordination, backend implementation, and release risk management.

Magento 2 Lead Developer UK
I help ecommerce teams in the UK deliver Magento work properly: clear technical direction, steady backend execution, and release flow that does not fall apart under pressure.
Typical work I take on
- - Backend architecture and module planning for active Magento estates
- - GraphQL and API integration work across ERP, CRM, and payment flows
- - Performance and reliability fixes for checkout, catalog, and cache behaviour
- - Release governance, patch management, and deployment risk reduction
Why teams bring me in
You get a technical lead who can still code, not just run meetings. I can work with your team, your agency partners, or directly with stakeholders when delivery needs to be rescued.

Yes, I am UK-based and can work remotely with UK and international ecommerce teams.
