Andrew Shevchenko
CTO at Crocoblock
Andrew is a full-stack developer with a background in mathematics and computer science. He began his career as a university lecturer, teaching math and technical disciplines, before moving into web development in 2011.
He began as a front-end developer but quickly focused on WordPress, first building projects for himself and then taking it on professionally. Over the years, he’s worked across nearly every layer of the WordPress ecosystem, from building client websites end-to-end to developing headless architectures, where WordPress powers the backend and the front end is fully custom.
He has extensive experience developing custom themes and plugins from scratch (both commercial and for WordPress.org), as well as extending and adapting existing solutions to meet specific project needs. In practice, this translates into a deep understanding of how WordPress works under the hood and how to push it much further when needed.
Today, as CTO, he leads the technical direction behind products in the Crocoblock ecosystem, overseeing development, shaping architecture, and guiding the team as those products evolve, while staying closely aligned with where the web is heading.
Outside of work, he loves to stay active and play basketball, CrossFit, rowing, or just spend time in the gym.
