# CarlosBuiltThis

> CarlosBuiltThis is the professional portfolio of Carlos Gonzalez, a Los Angeles-based WordPress developer, local SEO specialist, and technical problem solver. He is available for part-time, contract, and project work.

Carlos has built for the web since 2004. His preferred roles are hands-on work behind the scenes and technical team leadership. His experience includes WordPress development, Oxygen, website maintenance, migrations, database recovery, third-party integrations, Google Business Profile, local SEO, and operational documentation.

At Linda Local, now Linda Optics, Carlos was Head of Google Business. He built the function's standard operating procedures, quality assurance process, and weekly operating cadence; managed more than 100 location profiles through HighLevel and Trello; and trained staff to report calls and jobs.

Wild West Support and Microschool Studio are Carlos's own brands. Other websites presented in the portfolio are client projects. The Linda website screenshot illustrates the company context; Carlos's stated role there was Google Business and local SEO operations, not building that company website. AI-assisted development is specifically identified on the relevant project descriptions.
