I build high-performing backend platforms for marketplaces, education, and e-commerce using PHP, Laravel, and AWS.

I've built backend platforms for Appetiser Apps, Classera, Tkxel, and Cartlow across booking, education, job marketplace, and e-commerce products.

At Appetiser Apps, I lead BackInPlay backend development, make architecture decisions, review code, and mentor junior developers. I built Laravel APIs, database schemas, and Filament admin panels that reduced internal-tool development time by 40%.

At Classera, I developed Docker-based microservices for student information, learning management, and virtual lab systems. Redis caching and asynchronous queues reduced peak response times by 40%, while automated CI/CD cut release cycles by 50%.

I work across PHP, Laravel, Symfony, Node.js, Vue.js, AWS, Docker, and CI/CD, and I use AI-assisted development workflows to ship platforms efficiently.
