What I'm looking for

I'm looking to build reliable, scalable backend systems where I can improve architecture, modernize legacy applications, optimize performance, and contribute to strong engineering practices.

I've built and maintained backend systems for GF MONEY, GUAVAPAY LIMITED, and SMBDA, supporting financial and enterprise workflows with PHP, Laravel, REST APIs, and MySQL.

At GF MONEY, I improved responsiveness through asynchronous background processing, optimized database performance, and modernized legacy components while maintaining production stability. At GUAVAPAY, I developed secure fintech APIs, extended Laravel Nova admin panels, and improved deployment consistency with Docker and GitLab CI/CD.

I'm focused on reliable, maintainable, high-performance backend architecture, from SQL optimization and queues to API development and legacy modernization.
