Full Stack Engineer
I'm Cord Palmer — a full-stack engineer with 5+ years and 150+ shipped sites across agency, ecommerce, and product work, and the founder of SWRV Tech. I specialize in Next.js, React, TypeScript, WordPress, and Elementor, with deep experience building in regulated industries like cannabis retail.
Founder
SWRV Tech is the studio I founded and run, built around one idea: your website shouldn't sit outside your business, it should run on the same rails. We build websites, ecommerce, mobile apps, dashboards, and automation as one connected system — so the site your customers see and the operations you run stop being two separate jobs.
Based in Puerto Rico and serving clients across the US, SWRV Tech is where the bulk of the 150+ production sites in this portfolio were delivered. If you're looking for a team rather than a single engineer, that's the front door.
Services
Available for full-time roles, contract engagements, and ongoing retainer work.
End-to-end Next.js applications with TypeScript, server components, API routes, and Prisma-backed databases. Architected for performance, scalability, and long-term maintainability.
Conversion-optimized storefronts on WordPress, WooCommerce, and headless platforms. Expert Elementor builder with deep experience in regulated markets including cannabis retail.
Fast, structured marketing sites that score 90+ on Lighthouse out of the box. Built accessible, SEO-structured, and CMS-ready so your team owns the content after launch.
Polished component libraries and motion systems with GSAP and Framer Motion. The kind of UI that makes a product feel alive and justify the premium price point.
Technical
Production-tested tools across the full delivery pipeline — from frontend through deploy.
Process
A structured approach that keeps projects on track and clients informed at every stage.
I ask the right questions first. Business goals, user flows, edge cases, and technical constraints get mapped before a single line is written. Ambiguity is expensive — clarity is free.
Tech stack decisions, data models, component structure, and delivery milestones — documented before build starts. Clear architecture prevents the expensive pivots that kill timelines.
Sprint-paced delivery with async progress updates and working demos at every milestone. You always know what's done, what's next, and which decisions need your input.
Every launch goes through cross-browser QA, Core Web Vitals audits, accessibility checks, and load-time optimization. Production-grade means more than just working.
Zero-downtime deployments with rollback safety nets. Post-launch retainer support available for teams that want a trusted developer on call.
