What I'm looking for

I am looking for a role that challenges my skills and offers opportunities for growth in a collaborative environment.

As a Backend PHP Developer with over 9 years of experience, I specialize in Symfony and have extensive knowledge of SQL databases and performance optimization. My journey in software development has been marked by a passion for best practices, including Clean Code and robust unit testing, which ensures the applications I develop are maintainable and reliable.

In my current role as a Senior Backend Developer and Team Lead at Covermanager, I lead a team of developers, focusing on backend services and payment provider integrations. My previous experiences at companies like Morgan Stanley and Eviano Digital have further honed my skills in migrating PHP versions, optimizing codebases, and enhancing product usability. I am committed to applying principles such as Hexagonal Architecture and DDD to deliver high-quality software solutions.
