What I'm looking for

I’m looking for a role where I can modernize legacy systems, own backend + frontend delivery, and partner on architecture. I want strong engineering culture with code reviews, mentoring, automated testing, and CI/CD to ship reliably.

I’m a Senior Full-Stack Engineer with 8+ years designing, developing, and maintaining web applications, backend systems, and REST APIs. I build business platforms with PHP, Laravel, Node.js, TypeScript, and relational databases like PostgreSQL and MySQL, plus modern frontends with React and Vue.js.

I lead modernization initiatives, perform code reviews, mentor less experienced developers, and contribute to architectural decisions. I also troubleshoot production issues, integrate third-party services, and rely on automated testing, Docker, and CI/CD to keep systems reliable.

I’m an author of an open-source TypeScript package for NestJS and Next.js applications (published on npm). In my current role, I’m rewriting a legacy system from C# to Laravel and Vue.js, building a React + TypeScript client portal, and setting up CI/CD with monitoring via Sentry.
