I am Mauro Carrera. For over 15 years I have led high-performance WordPress teams and worked directly with Automattic, Elementor and Pressable. I help companies and founders ship better and faster, as a fractional development lead, an independent auditor, or the name behind brand projects.
Pick the format that fits you best. My audits and advisory work are independent, never a sales funnel toward execution.
Integrated part-time technical leadership: roadmap, architecture, hiring, code standards and mentoring. The direction of a senior Head of Dev without the full-time cost. I embed into your operation, prioritize what moves the needle, and leave processes your team sustains on its own once the engagement ends.
Let's talk about your teamIndependent technical audits, code and performance reviews, and 1:1 coaching. You buy my judgment and my experience. Honest conclusions you can apply with any team. Ideal when you want a senior second opinion before investing, hiring or taking on a big refactor, without committing to anything more.
Request an auditWhen a project needs a full team, it comes under my direction and is delivered by werun.dev, my development studio. My standards and oversight, plus a senior team to carry it out. You deal with a single person accountable for the outcome, and behind them a full studio executing to the same bar.
Tell me about your project"I lead. werun.dev delivers."
Over 15 years leading multinational teams, directing 20+ developers and QA at 500 Designs and scaling WordPress at Globant.
Recognized where it counts: a case study published by Pressable, selected by Elementor for User Stories, and multiple international awards. That credibility is tied to my name.
A clear process with no surprises: at every stage you know what happens and you approve it before we move on.
We fill in a form together that defines the scope: what we'll build, sections, features and goals. All in writing before we start.
Visual proposals of the key screens. We iterate on the design until you approve it, before writing a single line of code.
We build what was approved. Here the structure is locked: text and images can be adjusted, but the site architecture is not rebuilt.
We prepare the launch and publish your site. This final stage is fully handled by my team and me, end to end.
I direct 20+ developers and QA across Argentina, Venezuela, the Philippines and the United States. I led the AI adoption that cut development cycles by 40% and the QA automation that reduced testing time by 50%. MVP Dev Lead of the Year 2023.
I grew WordPress capacity from 1 to 20+ enterprise projects and mentored 12 developers across several countries. High-profile projects: FIFA Sport Tech Trends, Globant X Magnif.AI and BeKindTechFund.
I led the technical and operational strategy of a premium Argentine agency with work for Guinness, Falabella, Grupo Crobar and Posittion. Partnerships with WP Engine, Automattic, Pressable and AccessiBe across WordPress, Webflow and Shopify stacks.
I co-founded and led development of an events and promoters management platform, with a mobile app, QR access control and partnerships with national and international brands.
International design and technology awards, plus credibility recognized by the leaders of the WordPress ecosystem.
