What I'm looking for

I seek backend‑focused roles where I can deliver CMS migrations, custom plugins, ML integrations and server administration in a collaborative, results-driven team.

I am a full‑stack web developer with over a decade of freelance and corporate experience building backend‑focused web applications, CMS solutions and desktop software. I specialize in PHP/MySQL stacks, CMS installation and migration (WordPress, Drupal, Magento, Prestashop, osCommerce), plugin and theme development, SEO improvements and server administration.

I also develop desktop applications with Embarcadero/Builder C++, work with Windows Server and Linux, and have built and trained image‑recognition models using Python, TensorFlow and Keras, exporting models to run on the web. My approach is independent, creative and results driven, with a track record of delivering migrations, custom platforms and production tools for businesses.
