What I'm looking for

I seek backend or technical-lead roles where I can build secure, high-performance APIs, mentor teams, and work in Agile environments focused on measurable product impact.

I am a results-driven Senior Software Engineer with over 17 years of experience specializing in PHP development, REST API design, and high-performance web application optimization. I have deep expertise in Symfony and Laravel and a strong track record delivering secure, scalable backend systems.

I have led cross-functional teams, managed Agile workflows, and optimized database performance using MySQL/PostgreSQL, indexing, stored procedures and query tuning. I built high-performance RESTful APIs, improved response times with Redis caching, and contributed to both web and mobile API integrations.

My achievements include delivering mission-critical healthcare features on schedule and being awarded Ace Performer (Q2 2024). I bring pragmatic engineering, a focus on code quality, and experience with Docker, CI/CD, and frontend integration to drive product outcomes.
