What I'm looking for

I am looking for a role that allows me to leverage my PHP and full-stack development skills while fostering a collaborative and innovative company culture.

I am a versatile IT professional with extensive experience in developing efficient, testable PHP-based features. My expertise lies in integrating user-facing elements, solving performance problems, and navigating architectural challenges. I am adept at ensuring security compliance and creating scalable applications, leveraging my skills in MySQL and PostgreSQL databases, version control systems like Git, and front-end technologies including JavaScript, HTML5, and CSS3.

Throughout my career, I have successfully improved system capabilities and user experience by adding new features and integrating client APIs. My role as a Symfony Backend Developer at Pawprint allowed me to enhance data handling and system performance significantly. I have a strong commitment to writing robust code, and my experience in developing comprehensive PHP unit tests has ensured data security and functional integrity across various projects.

In addition to my backend development skills, I have contributed to front-end development, utilizing my knowledge of React to elevate user interface functionality. My journey has equipped me with a well-rounded skill set, making me a valuable asset in any development team.
