What I'm looking for

I want a remote-friendly role in SaaS or web products where I can lead technical delivery, improve devops pipelines, mentor engineers and build reliable full‑stack features.

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.
