Pavlik Pavlik
@pavlikpavlik
Backend PHP Engineer focused on scalable architecture, system design, and high-load fintech/e-commerce solutions.
What I'm looking for
I’m a Backend PHP Engineer with 5+ years of experience building scalable, high-load solutions for FinTech, Cybersecurity, and E-commerce. I specialize in Laravel and Magento 2, with strong expertise in microservices architecture, API design, and big data processing.
In my recent role, I designed and delivered a fault-tolerant, queue-driven data processing pipeline handling ~20M records daily with horizontal scalability. I also built a custom NMI payment gateway integration that enabled one-click merchant onboarding, and I automated a critical daily settlement workflow—eliminating manual developer involvement and saving ~4 hours per week.
I’m equally focused on engineering practices and reliability: I introduced Docker-based standardized environments to reduce onboarding time, took over a legacy project with critical process gaps, and helped the team move toward maintainable workflows (documentation, production branch protection, code review discipline). I enjoy working directly with English-speaking clients to gather requirements, propose solutions, and ensure successful delivery.
