Profile

Muhammed Irshad K at his desk

An engineer’s discipline, applied to the front end.

I am a front-end and Shopify developer who started in mechanical engineering. I still work the same way: follow the specification, build in reusable parts and test before handover.

Since 2023 I have worked remotely with a Dubai team, turning approved designs into fast, mobile-first sites that clients can manage themselves. I also use AI tools such as GitHub Copilot, ChatGPT and Claude to speed up delivery.

E-commerce setup

From an empty Shopify admin to a store that takes payment and ships orders.

Beyond theme work, I set up the whole commerce stack, so a store is ready to sell on launch day and the owner can run it without a developer.

  1. 01

    Customer orders

    Browses the store and checks out

  2. 02

    Payment

    Gateway confirms the payment

  3. 03

    Shopify order

    Order, stock and email are created

  4. 04

    Shiprocket

    Order syncs and a courier is assigned

  5. 05

    Courier

    Parcel is picked up and delivered

  6. 06

    Tracking

    Customer follows the shipment

Store setup

Complete Shopify store setup

A new store configured from the first login: settings, catalogue, navigation and the legal pages a store needs before it can sell.

  • Products and variants
  • Collections
  • Bulk import
  • Domain and email
  • Taxes and policies

Payments

Payment gateway integration

Online payments connected and tested end to end, so customers can pay by card, UPI, wallet or cash on delivery.

  • Razorpay
  • Stripe
  • PayPal
  • Cashfree
  • PayU
  • Cash on delivery
  • Test and live mode

Shipping

Shiprocket and shipping set-up

Shiprocket linked to the store so orders flow to the courier without retyping, with rates and tracking customers can see.

  • Shiprocket sync
  • Courier selection
  • Shipping zones and rates
  • Pincode check
  • Order tracking
  • COD handling

Checkout

Checkout and order flow

The path from cart to confirmation, tuned so it is short, clear and sends the right messages at each step.

  • Checkout settings
  • Order emails
  • Discount codes
  • Abandoned carts
  • Draft orders

Tracking

Analytics and search set-up

Measurement in place before launch, so sales and traffic can be read from day one.

  • Google Analytics 4
  • Meta Pixel
  • Search Console
  • Merchant Center
  • Conversion events

Extend

Apps and custom integrations

Shopify apps installed and configured, and custom work where an app does not fit, using Liquid, the Shopify API and webhooks.

  • Shopify apps
  • Admin API
  • Webhooks
  • Custom Liquid
  • Third-party APIs

Launch checklist

Every store I hand over is checked against the same list before it goes live.

Ask about a store set-up
  • Products, prices, stock and images loaded
  • Domain connected with SSL and email
  • Payment gateway tested with real orders
  • Shiprocket connected, courier and rates set
  • Tax, shipping and return policies published
  • Order and shipping emails checked
  • Analytics and pixels firing correctly
  • Tested on phone, tablet and desktop
  • Staff accounts and a handover walkthrough

Way of working

How I work with designers, clients and teams.

  1. Stage 1

    Brief

    Design files, content and deadline are shared. With no design yet, I work from a reference site.

  2. Stage 2

    Scope

    Pages, features and delivery date are agreed in writing before work begins.

  3. Stage 3

    Build and review

    Working pages are shared as they are finished, so feedback comes early.

  4. Stage 4

    Launch and handover

    Testing on phones and browsers, publishing, and a walkthrough so the team can update the site.
