Web systems developer. WordPress operations, hosting and integrations, through to browser-based applications.
Seven years in the Army. Then a refinery, cell towers and a utility lineman apprenticeship. Since 2019: professional WordPress work, then the Linux servers under it, and browser apps that process files without uploading them. Now building my own things and taking contract work.
Positioning
Web systems developer. WordPress operations, hosting, integrations and browser-based applications.
Operations experience
30+ production WordPress sites and the Linux/Plesk servers under them, owned solo for three and a half years (site count is my own account).
Application development
SplitForge: 27 client-side tools on Web Workers. TypeScript, React/Next.js, Astro.
Five things I run or ran, as chapters. Real screenshots where I have them, numbers only with their source, and a pointer to the record where a client has not yet cleared the detail.
Excel stops at 1,048,576 rows and cloud tools want the file uploaded. SplitForge streams CSV and Excel files through Web Workers in the browser, so the file never leaves the machine.
Twenty-seven tools live at splitforge.app, all client-side, with no upload endpoint by design and a free tier of 25 operations a month. Counts and tiers as stated on the product site, captured 2026-11-02.
An apparel brand needed a storefront one person could run: fast, owned, maintainable. Built on a tuned WordPress and WooCommerce stack with Elementor for the merchandising pages.
Live storefront: Drop 001 is on sale and customers can complete a purchase. No sales figures are claimed.
A growing network of 30+ WordPress sites carrying paid traffic, with no dedicated infrastructure and no single owner. Stood up a dedicated Linux/Plesk server, standardised SSL, backups and caching, led the flagship rebuilds, and wired Salesforce and call tracking so every call could be attributed to a page.
One person ran sites and servers for three and a half years through redesigns, campaigns and outages. The 30+ site count is my own account of the work, not an externally verified figure; the client name and screenshots await publication approval, and the dates are on the record.
Client name and property links will appear here once cleared for publication. The record has the dates.
A futures day trader gets a broker export with no account column, no fees per trade and no proof that its first and last trades were complete. The cockpit rebuilds round trips by first-in first-out pairing and withholds every analytic until the file reconciles to itself.
A private, single-user deployment. Every figure traces to a fill; anything the data cannot prove is said rather than estimated. Shown here on synthetic demonstration data only; no trading outcome of mine is published.
Private, single-user deployment with no public address. The capture shows synthetic demonstration data.
Service businesses needed website care, local visibility and managed call intake from one accountable person. The site itself is a modern static build: Astro, self-hosted type, Cloudflare in front, and a client login that shows the work completed.
Live at barbagallodigital.com with three flat-fee plans, as stated on the site. No client counts are claimed.
Not a straight line. Service, then trades, then code. Every job on it taught me something the next one needed. The gap is drawn, not hidden.
Three lanes, one person. Years in web roles: 7. Years of service: 7.
