Mahesh — developer at One.com, working on Rank Math SEO. Previously at Brainstorm Force.

I build products for the open web — mostly WordPress plugins, sometimes React + Astro sites, and lately a sprawl of Cloudflare Workers behind both.

Started My Journey

Self-taught Developer

Wrote my first line of code out of curiosity. Explored HTML, CSS, JavaScript, and WordPress. Freelanced for a stretch and learned to ship without supervision — which has been most of the job ever since.

Before 2021
Milestones
  • First WordPress sites + plugins for clients
  • First open-source releases
  • Started writing on maheshwaghmare.com
Open to interesting conversations.

Plugin engineering, performance work, indie-empire build-out — happy to talk.
