Grunwell Consulting

Though I’m gainfully employed through Mailchimp, I do occasionally make myself available for after-hours consulting under the umbrella of Grunwell Consulting, LLC.

Are you still updating your site by FTP-ing files directly to production? Perhaps you have a working application, but making updates is painful and things regularly break? Are you convinced that automated testing is valuable, but are unsure where to start? Does your rag-tag team of developers need someone to fill-in gaps in their knowledge? These are all areas where Grunwell Consulting can help!

Services

Please consider Grunwell Consulting if you’re looking for assistance and/or training in any of the following areas:

  • PHP application development, particularly using the Laravel application framework
  • WordPress plugin and theme development
  • Continuous Integration and Delivery (CI/CD) pipeline setup + configuration or other automations
  • Code quality and static code analysis tooling
  • Automated software testing
  • Development workflows, including version control, step debugging, and more
  • API design and development
  • HTML semantics and accessibility

I’m particularly focused on the PHP ecosystem and Developer Experience (“DevX”), but am also well-versed in modern front-end stacks and tooling. I’m also an experienced speaker and able to prepare custom trainings for your teams, either virtually or in-person.

Get started

Availability is very limited, between my day job, speaking engagements, and generally being present with my family. To get started, please email consulting@stevegrunwell.com.

Be excellent to each other.
