Headless website platform migration

Led the move from WordPress to a headless Contentful and Vercel setup, coordinating the technical implementation and the people affected by it.

Purpose: The marketing website needed a more flexible foundation that could support ongoing content and development work without keeping everything tied to a traditional WordPress setup.

Website lead and tracking infrastructure

Improved the path from website forms and user interactions into Salesforce, while making tracking issues easier to identify and resolve.

Purpose: Website leads and behavioural data are only useful when forms, tracking and downstream systems work together reliably.
