Abraham Brookes
@abrahambrookes
Full‑stack Laravel & Vue developer with leadership experience and strong devops practices.
What I'm looking for
I’m a multi-streamed full-stack web developer specialising in Laravel and Vue, with a background in logistics and team leadership from the Australian Army and mining industry. I combine raw PHP/JS skills with framework expertise to deliver robust SaaS features and apps.
At Caremaster I managed and upgraded a 15-year legacy PHP/SQL/jQuery codebase while building new Laravel/Vue features, moved the team to dockerized local development, built CI/CD pipelines and took on react-native mobile app ownership as sole app developer.
Previously at Precedence I scoped, built and maintained multiple client-facing Laravel and Vue applications, led projects, mentored junior developers and implemented testing with PHPUnit, Jest, Cypress and Storybook. I also handled devops tasks including Docker, bash scripting and deployments to Linux, Vultr, AWS and Azure.
I’m pragmatic, documentation-focused and comfortable juggling feature delivery, maintenance and platform scalability. I’m looking for remote-friendly teams building SaaS or web products where I can contribute as a senior full-stack developer and technical lead.
