CSS Optimization Specialist for Site Performance
I’m running a Webflow site (microagility.webflow.io/) and struggling to eliminate a render‑blocking main stylesheet that Lighthouse flags as ~11 s of FCP/LCP delay. I’ve tried various client‑side hacks, but they all run too late for PageSpeed Insights. I need an expert who can:
Propose and implement a bullet‑proof solution (via HTML export & head reordering, Cloudflare Worker HTML rewrite, or another server‑side approach) that removes or defers Webflow’s autogenerated microagility.shared…min.css link before the browser parse‑time
Inline critical “above‑the‑fold” CSS for header/hero
Load the full stylesheet asynchronously (e.g. preload + onload switch or equivalent)
Maintain full Webflow functionality (no visual regressions)
Demonstrate at least 10 s of render‑blocking savings in Lighthouse/Piglighthouse reports
Responsibilities:
Audit current Webflow head output and PageSpeed report
Implement a robust solution that rewrites/edits the HTML before parse (e.g. export & manual edit, Cloudflare Worker, Netlify Edge Function, or similar)
Inline minimal critical CSS and defer the main CSS file
Test across mobile and desktop to ensure no layout shifts or FOUC
Provide before/after Lighthouse screenshots and verification
Requirements:
Proven experience optimizing Webflow sites for Core Web Vitals (FCP, LCP, TBT)
Deep understanding of critical‑CSS generation, render‑blocking resource removal, and asynchronous CSS loading patterns
Familiarity with Cloudflare Workers, Netlify Edge Functions, or other CDN/edge‑rewrite tools is a plus
Strong HTML/CSS/JavaScript skills and comfort exporting & rebuilding Webflow code if needed
Clear communication and demonstration of past performance wins
Deliverables & Timeline:
Audit report with current bottlenecks and proposed approach
Implemented solution on a staging copy of the site
Lighthouse score improvement proof (FCP/LCP render‑blocking eliminated)
