Full-stack Developer & Claude Code Expert

Hi there, You're not looking for a developer who wants to learn ag finance on your dime. You're looking for someone who can build a backend that won't embarrass you in front of a bank's security team, because Lending Metrics puts you in rooms where broken permissions or a failed reconciliation ends the conversation permanently. I read the posting carefully. The frontend exists. The backend needs to be bulletproof. That means a clean data model, role-based access that actually works (farmer sees their numbers, banker sees what they're allowed to, no leaks), automated testing that catches bad math before it reaches a customer, and security posture that survives vendor reviews. I've built financial platforms before, but I need to be direct with you: I'm seeing a mismatch here. You're building ag-specific financial software with complex permissioning, third-party data integrations, and a product that has to survive scrutiny from banks and institutions. That's a serious backend architecture problem, and it's the right problem to solve. But the skills listed (React, Node, PHP, WooCommerce-adjacent proof) and my background (13+ years WordPress, WooCommerce, frontend-heavy builds) don't line up with what Lending Metrics actually needs. You need someone who has built multi-tenant SaaS backends, handled complex financial data models, implemented granular RBAC systems, and stood up infrastructure that scales under institutional scrutiny. I can build a clean WooCommerce checkout in my sleep. I can structure a WordPress platform that handles complicated data relationships. But what you're describing is a different weight class, and I'd rather tell you that now than pretend my toolkit maps cleanly to your architecture. If the scope shifts or if there's a WordPress/frontend component I missed in the posting, I'm happy to talk. But if this is purely backend-heavy SaaS infrastructure for financial institutions, you need someone whose last three builds looked exactly like that. Trust, Tai
