What I'm looking for

I seek senior backend/cloud roles where I can lead monolith-to-microservice migrations, improve CI/CD and automation, and work in agile, continuous-improvement teams.

I am a senior developer with deep experience designing, evolving and maintaining backend systems, particularly in PHP and Symfony, and a strong focus on cloud migrations and CI/CD improvements.

Across roles at Vorwerk, Cloud District and Open Knowledge Network, I have led monolith-to-microservices migrations, improved deployment pipelines (GitLab, AWS, Azure, Terraform) and supported QA and operations to drive automation and reliability.

I have managed remote technical teams, owned ISO-27001 responsibilities, and built internal tooling using PHP/Laravel, while progressively adopting Go and Python for microservices.

I value Kaizen and agile methodologies, follow SOLID and TDD practices, and bring hands-on expertise with databases, Linux administration and a broad practical knowledge of cloud platforms and DevOps workflows.
