What I'm looking for

I’m looking for a role where I can build and modernize reliable PHP/Laravel/Symfony systems, improve performance and security, and work with clean code and strong software architecture—ideally with Docker-based workflows and automation.

I’m an experienced Backend / Full Stack Developer focused on building scalable, maintainable, performance-oriented applications. I’ve developed and maintained web systems using PHP 8.3 and Laravel, and I’ve led migrations modernizing legacy PHP from PHP 5.3 to PHP 8.1/8.3 to improve performance and security.

I also architect full-stack experiences—building dynamic user interfaces with React, JavaScript, and jQuery—and I strengthen reliability through database management across MySQL and MSSQL. On the DevOps side, I orchestrate containerized workflows with Docker and automate processes with n8n, including migration/re-engineering efforts such as moving legacy platforms to Symfony 6 while maintaining zero downtime.
