About

I am a senior software engineer with 8+ years of experience building scalable web applications using PHP frameworks (Laravel, Symfony, CakePHP, CodeIgniter) and modern front-end technologies (Next.js, React, Vue). I enjoy translating complex business requirements into robust, secure server-side architectures and clean, maintainable code that scales.

I thrive in fully remote or distributed teams, leading end-to-end development and collaborating with cross-functional groups to deliver high-quality products. My focus areas include real estate platforms, marketing automation, and building performant backend systems with strong data architecture, while continuously improving code quality through automated testing and CI/CD practices.
