Welcome to my corner of the internet!
My name is Juan José Machado a.k.a Obi Juan.
I’m currently the Lead Developer at Newsletter Glue, a newsletter plugin for WordPress. Check us out at: https://newsletterglue.com/.
I’m also Lead Developer at FastPassWP, an auto login solution for your newsletters. https://fastpasswp.com.
My WordPress experience started as a teenager, in the mid-late 2000s.
It was mostly playing around with WordPress core, using plugins, etc.
It became more of a serious thing in late 2016 when I started a collaboration venture with Fabi Paolini, a branding strategist and web designer.
At first, it involved migrating websites from staging into production, doing minor tweaks, etc.
Then, it evolved into technical support for Fabi’s clients and her projects.
In mid-2018, I started a position as a Technical Support Engineer at Pojo.me LTD, the people behind Elementor Website Builder.
In September 2020, I joined Skyward North LLC, the people behind LearnDash LMS at that time. I lived through the acquisition by Liquid Web.
I joined Clif Griffin Development Inc., the team behind CheckoutWC (Checkout for WooCommerce), as a Freelance Support Developer in September 2022, working in all technical support cases, providing custom code solutions, and handling escalations.
In mid-2023, I worked as a Freelance Software Developer for Plugin Republic, an independent WooCommerce extensions shop.
