Freelance Drupal Developer in Chandigarh, India
I'm Pawan Singh, a freelance Drupal developer building custom modules, headless Drupal sites with React and Next.js, and reliable migrations — working directly with businesses and agencies in India, the US, the UK, and worldwide.
Drupal Development Services
Custom Drupal Development
Custom modules, content architecture, editorial workflows, and access control built the Drupal way. I follow Drupal coding standards and build sites that stay maintainable long after launch — no hacked cores, no shortcuts that hurt you at upgrade time.
- Drupal 10
- Custom Modules
- Content Modeling
- Views & Layouts
Headless Drupal with React & Next.js
My specialty: Drupal as the editorial backend, Next.js as a fast, SEO-friendly frontend, connected over JSON:API. Editors keep the CMS they know while visitors get modern performance. This very website runs on exactly that stack.
- Headless Drupal
- Next.js
- JSON:API
- Decoupled Architecture
Drupal Migrations & Upgrades
Structured migrations from Drupal 7, 8, or 9 to Drupal 10/11, and content migrations from WordPress or custom CMSs into Drupal. I plan field mappings, preserve URLs and SEO, and migrate iteratively so nothing is lost.
- Drupal 7 to 10
- Migrate API
- SEO-safe Redirects
- Content Migration
Drupal Maintenance & Support
Security updates, performance tuning, bug fixes, and small feature work on existing Drupal sites. I can audit a site I didn't build, document what I find, and take over ongoing maintenance without demanding a rebuild.
- Security Updates
- Performance
- Site Audits
- Ongoing Support
Why Hire Me as Your Freelance Drupal Developer?
Choosing the right freelance Drupal developer decides whether your site is an asset or a liability. Here's what you get when you work with me directly.
Direct communication, no agency overhead
You talk to the person writing the code. No account managers, no hand-offs, no agency markup — faster decisions and honest estimates.
A genuine headless Drupal specialist
Many Drupal developers stop at themes. I build decoupled frontends in React and Next.js on top of Drupal — the architecture this site itself uses in production.
Full-stack, one developer
Backend modules, frontend, deployment, DNS, CDN — I handle the whole chain, so you don't need to coordinate multiple contractors.
Clean handover and documentation
Everything I build is version-controlled, documented, and structured so another developer could take over tomorrow. You own the code and the knowledge.
Timezone overlap with the US, UK & EU
Based in Chandigarh (IST), I keep working hours that overlap with European mornings and US Eastern mornings, and I communicate asynchronously so nothing blocks on a meeting.
Support after launch
I don't disappear at go-live. Security updates, monitoring, fixes, and new features — I offer ongoing maintenance on every project I deliver.
Remote Drupal Developer for US, UK & Global Clients
Most of my Drupal work is remote. I work with startups, agencies, and businesses in the United States, the United Kingdom, Europe, and across India — collaborating over email, Slack, and project trackers, with code delivered through Git and reviewed in pull requests. Hiring an India-based freelance Drupal developer gives you senior-level Drupal work at significantly lower rates than a US or UK agency, without the communication problems that usually come with outsourcing: you work with one accountable developer, not a rotating offshore team.
For clients in Chandigarh, Mohali, Panchkula, and Delhi NCR, I'm also available for on-site discussions when a project needs them. Wherever you are, the process is the same: a clear scope, an honest estimate, iterative delivery you can see in staging, and a proper handover at the end.

Frequently Asked Questions
- Do you work as a freelance Drupal developer in Chandigarh? +
- Yes. I'm based in Chandigarh, India, and work as an independent freelance Drupal developer for clients in Chandigarh, Mohali, Panchkula, and Delhi NCR, as well as remote clients across India, the US, the UK, and Europe.
- Can I hire you as a remote Drupal developer from the US or UK? +
- Absolutely. Most of my clients are remote. I keep working hours that overlap with US Eastern and UK mornings, communicate over Slack and email, and deliver all work through Git with staging environments you can review at any time.
- What Drupal services do you offer? +
- Custom Drupal module and site development, headless Drupal builds with React or Next.js frontends, Drupal 7/8/9 to Drupal 10 migrations, WordPress-to-Drupal content migrations, performance optimization, security updates, and ongoing maintenance.
- Can you upgrade my old Drupal 7 or Drupal 8 site? +
- Yes. I plan and execute structured migrations to Drupal 10 using the Migrate API — mapping content types and fields, preserving URLs with proper redirects so you don't lose SEO rankings, and running the migration iteratively so content is verified before cutover.
- Do you build headless or decoupled Drupal sites? +
- Yes, headless Drupal is my core specialty. I pair Drupal as the editorial backend with a Next.js or React frontend over JSON:API. This website itself is a headless Drupal + Next.js build I run in production.
- How much does it cost to hire a freelance Drupal developer? +
- Well-defined projects are quoted as a fixed price; ongoing or evolving work is billed hourly. As an independent developer based in India, my rates are substantially lower than US/UK agency rates for the same senior-level work. Send me your requirements and I'll give you a clear estimate within one business day.
- Why hire a freelance Drupal developer instead of an agency? +
- You get direct communication with the person actually building your site, faster turnaround, and no agency overhead in the price. For most small-to-medium Drupal projects, a specialized freelancer delivers the same quality as an agency at a fraction of the cost.
