What I'm looking for

I'm looking to build secure, scalable e-commerce and web applications where I can solve complex PHP, Magento, Symfony, and Laravel challenges while improving performance, maintainability, and user experience.

I've spent 10+ years building web applications and e-commerce platforms with PHP, Magento 2, Symfony, and Laravel. I deliver end-to-end Magento customizations, REST API integrations, and custom modules for international clients through Upwork.

At Extended Patterns, I improved site performance by 40%+ through image optimization, minification, lazy loading, and database query optimization. I also built secure authentication systems and scalable applications using Symfony components.

At Progoes Tech, I developed 5+ Magento 2 extensions, customized themes, mentored three junior developers, and introduced PHPUnit testing that reduced production bugs by an estimated 30%.

I enjoy writing clean, maintainable code, solving complex platform problems, and improving application structure, security, and performance.
