Portfolio: https://seanw.org/

Live example projects: https://checkbot.io/ https://inclusivecolors.com/

Location: Edinburgh, UK and remote (I’m used to time zone differences and async work)

I help startups with the UX/UI and web design of their products. This includes web apps, websites, landing pages, copywriting, and I can assist with frontend development where needed. My background of launching my own products and being a full stack developer helps me create practical designs that balance usability, aesthetics, development effort, and performance. I work to fixed price quotes for self-contained projects.

The best live example of my work is Checkbot (https://checkbot.io/), a browser extension that tests websites for SEO/speed/security problems. The entire project is my own work including coding the extension itself, UX/UI design, website design (the homepage is optimised to load in 0.7 seconds, 0.3MB data transferred), marketing, website copy, and website articles on web best practices.

About me: Hi, I’m Giorgi — a Full-Stack Web Developer with around four years of experience in frontend development and about a year in backend and AI-related work. I’ve collaborated in various settings — from freelancing individually to working with teams in digital agency and startup — which helped me develop strong adaptability and teamwork skills. Most of my career has focused on building and maintaining WordPress websites (custom themes, ACF, Twig, Gutenberg), but over the past two years I’ve also been involved in React/Next.js projects. Recently, I’ve taken a growing interest in backend and AI development through my work at Onconest, an AI-powered health startup, where I contribute to both backend and AI implementation. I’m passionate about clean, accessible web experiences — over the last year, I’ve led accessibility improvements for large-scale projects in a US-based digital agency. I’m always eager to learn, improve, and take on new challenges where I can deliver results and make an impact.

Hi. I'm looking for full-time remote roles in a well-funded stable company (I will work in the company's core office hours. 0 issues with timezones. Been working remotely before covid)

Building websites since 2016, working with React since 2018 and have 2 years of production next.js experience

Super comfortable with Next.js, React, Redux (with sagas), tailwind, material ui, styled-components, SEO schemas, AMP, MERN, scalable deployment on GCP/AWS/Vercel, incremental migration and parallel deployment (WordPress blogs, new next.js code and old code working on the same domain)

I value web performance (web vitals) and accessibility and could create high conversion dynamic pages
