What I'm looking for
I am a backend software engineer with over four years of experience building scalable ERP and e-commerce systems using PHP and CodeIgniter. I focus on reliable REST APIs, QuickBooks integrations, and automated PDF workflows to reduce manual effort.
At Smart WebTech I designed and maintained a role-based ERP serving suppliers and customers, built REST APIs, and integrated QuickBooks Online for invoices, payments, credit memos, and deposits. I automated PDF generation for invoices and reports, cutting manual work by 60%.
I also optimized MySQL queries and improved report load times by about 40%, and implemented secure authentication, authorization, and data validation across applications. I collaborate closely with product and QA teams to deliver production-ready features.
