Senior backend developer building high-performance PHP/Laravel systems with measurable business impact.
What I'm looking for
I’m a Senior Backend Developer with 4+ years of experience architecting high-performance, production-grade backend systems. I bring deep expertise in the PHP/Laravel ecosystem, distributed architectures, real-time infrastructure, and database optimization at scale.
I’ve owned end-to-end API design and delivery across fintech, e-commerce, healthcare, and real estate—driving key technical decisions and shipping complex solutions with measurable impact. In my recent roles, I’ve led caching and queue-based performance improvements, designed multi-tenant backends with HMVC, and reduced primary DB load through Redis-based caching and Laravel queues.
I’m especially proud of taking legacy modules through modernization—refactoring toward SOLID principles, repository patterns, and clean architecture—while improving reliability with strong RESTful API contracts and third-party integration strategies. I enjoy building real-time and high-traffic platforms using WebSocket infrastructure and event-driven designs.
