What I'm looking for

I seek backend-focused roles where I can design scalable APIs, lead migrations to microservices, improve performance, mentor teams, and work in agile environments with strong testing and CI/CD practices.

I am a Senior Backend Engineer with 5+ years building and scaling PHP/Laravel applications, focused on clean code, SOLID principles, and test-driven development.

I have led large-scale data migrations and re-architected monoliths into microservices, handling 10K+ daily orders and tripling client base through careful API and database design.

I consistently deliver performance improvements—profiling and refactoring queries to reduce API latency by 50%—and implement event-driven systems using RabbitMQ, webhooks, and GraphQL integrations.

I mentor cross-functional teams, instituted TDD and code review standards that cut QA bugs by over 50%, and advocate for agile practices, CI/CD, and maintainable architectures.
