Ankit Parekh

Full-Stack WordPress & AI Engineer

Senior Developer at WisdmLabs specializing in WordPress, WooCommerce, and AI integration. Building production-grade WooCommerce solutions, LLM-powered tooling, and MCP servers that connect AI to real WordPress data.

About Me

Building at the intersection of WordPress & AI

I'm a Full-Stack WordPress & AI Engineer at WisdmLabs, working on complex WooCommerce, LearnDash, and MemberPress solutions for clients worldwide, alongside presales consulting and architecture work.

Over the last couple of years, I've shifted significant focus toward AI/ML tooling — building RAG systems, MCP servers, and LLM-powered workflows that augment WordPress development. I believe the next wave of WordPress products will be deeply AI-integrated.

I'm currently exploring freelancing opportunities, particularly for high-stakes WordPress projects and AI integration work where deep domain knowledge makes the difference.
