What I'm looking for

I seek roles building scalable, high-availability e-commerce platforms where I can lead migrations, performance tuning, and cross-functional delivery in an Agile, collaborative environment.

I am a Senior Software Engineer with 10+ years building and scaling enterprise e-commerce platforms across retail and B2B domains, focused on reliability, performance, and customer-centered solutions.

I have deep hands-on experience with PHP, Laravel, Adobe Commerce (Magento), AWS cloud architectures, RESTful APIs, CI/CD automation, and performance optimization, having led platform migrations and implemented integrations for payments, tax, and fulfillment.

I collaborate closely with product, design, and engineering teams in Agile environments, mentor junior engineers, and prioritize automated deployments, observability, and scalable architectures to deliver high-availability commerce experiences.
