About me
I’m Olawale, a WordPress and PHP developer based in Nigeria. I’ve been building websites and working with PHP since 2014.
I worked at Codesolutions.io from January 2014 to August 2018, developing WordPress themes, PHP functionality and databases. I started freelancing on Upwork in October 2018, working with clients on custom features, integrations and existing websites.
From July 2021 to October 2026, I worked with Ramble Ventures and the PublishPress team on their WordPress plugins. Much of that work involved learning existing products thoroughly, adding features and fixing problems over several releases.
I’m now available for remote roles and freelance projects.

How I work
I like to understand the problem before changing the code. I keep communication clear, test the behavior affected by a change and leave code that another developer can follow.
