About the Author

Paulo Carvajal
Paulo Carvajal

Paulo Carvajal is a senior web developer and WordPress specialist with over two decades of experience in front-end development and content management systems. Based in Bilbao, Spain, he has dedicated the past 15 years to delivering custom WordPress solutions, focusing on component-based development and the Block Editor (Gutenberg).


For over twenty years, Paulo built custom websites and apps for clients in many different industries as the founder and lead developer of the digital design studio Vudumedia. He did this by combining modern JavaScript frameworks with PHP development and RESTful API design.


Recently, he has contributed as a senior developer to large-scale projects at leading digital consultancies including Flat 101 and VML The Cocktail, where he works focused on architecting scalable, maintainable WordPress platforms. This comprises multisite environments and headless solutions that decouple the front end through the use of technologies like Next.js and Vue.js.
