Khoyer writes code, hunts bugs, and breathes perfume.
Product engineer, ex-support manager, and fraghead.
I’m a Product Engineer, building web products with AI features. My years in customer support shape what I build: I start with where people get stuck and work out what would help. I also take on freelance projects.
Kind Words
I had the pleasure of working with Khoyer before the AI era, and he's an exceptional clean coder. His code is clear, well-structured, and reliable. He also takes the time to document everything thoroughly, ensuring easy understanding and maintenance. While the AI landscape may have shifted development practices, his attention to quality and best practices remains invaluable.

Support Taught Me Product Engineering Before I Knew the Word
How years in WordPress support shaped my product judgment, and what changed when I took on broader responsibility for building products.
How I Work
More than half my career has been spent on WordPress products, with PHP and JavaScript as my foundation. My focus is product thinking and low-level design: understanding what people need and defining how a system should behave. I choose platforms to fit the problem and use AI to support implementation. I enjoy talking through problems with people and finding a useful solution, whether that means building a product feature or helping someone in a support conversation.
