About

I'm Phil, a senior Shopify developer with over five years building and refining storefronts for ecommerce brands. My core stack is JavaScript and TypeScript, with deep expertise in Liquid and Online Store 2.0 theme development, from fully custom builds to extending and modernising existing themes.

Alongside theme work, I specialise in performance and conversion optimisation: cutting load times, improving Core Web Vitals and making data-informed UX changes that lift conversion rates. I work regularly with the wider Shopify ecosystem, including Klaviyo, Recharge and Rebuy, integrating, customising and troubleshooting them as part of larger builds.

I work in small, reversible steps: build and review on a development theme, preserve existing customisations, and publish only after sign-off. I'm comfortable owning a project end to end or providing senior cover inside an existing team.

I work best with brands scaling past their first theme, or teams needing senior support on a specific build.

FAQ

What types of Shopify projects do you specialise in?
Theme development and customisation on Online Store 2.0 (Liquid plus JavaScript and TypeScript), full store builds, app integrations (Klaviyo, Rebuy, Recharge, Algolia), performance optimisation, and conversion-focused UX. I am comfortable owning a build end to end or dropping into an existing store to fix one specific problem.
Do you work with existing themes, or do I need a custom build?
Both. Most of my clients have an existing theme (Dawn, Impulse, Prestige, Horizon, Savor, Out of the Sandbox themes) that needs extending or cleaning up, and I also build new stores from scratch. Either way I work on a duplicate development theme, so your live store is never at risk and nothing publishes without your sign-off.
What's your typical turnaround time?
For scoped tasks such as a bug fix, a new section or an app integration, usually two to five business days. For larger builds and phased projects I give you a milestone timeline upfront. You will not be left waiting and wondering, I communicate progress throughout.
