What I'm looking for

I’m looking for a role where I can own backend PHP/Laravel and API development, optimize databases, lead teams, and keep solving complex problems with modern tooling and strong collaboration.

I’m a senior PHP/Laravel developer with 6 years of experience building scalable web applications and APIs. I design and implement PHP features and APIs, troubleshoot complex application issues, and improve system reliability and maintainability.

I leverage tools like Cursor, Codex, and Antigravity to analyze legacy codebases, identify performance bottlenecks, detect inefficient database queries, and accelerate refactoring. I’ve led backend teams, designed and optimized database architectures (including MySQL and PostgreSQL), delivered RESTful APIs, and supported smooth frontend-backend integration while assigning tasks and guiding developers to meet deadlines.
