I'm a professional full-stack web developer with a degree in computer science and a track record spanning since 2007. I specialize in back-end PHP with Nette or CodeIgniter, but I also enjoy front-end development and theming. I contribute to open-source projects and have worked with diverse frameworks and systems, plus I bring solid Linux server administration experience and strong collaboration skills. Over the years I’ve worked with clients in Japan and the United States, delivering features like PDF/ePub export, interactive maps, and payment-processor integrations. I’m comfortable working with teams of varying sizes and locations, and I bring strong Git, server administration, and cross-functional communication to every project. I also have experience with Objective-C/Swift and Python/Lua/Java, and I can communicate in English and conversational Japanese.
