I am a Technical Architect and Senior Backend Developer with over a decade of experience designing, building, and scaling enterprise-grade web applications across diverse domains. I’ve led architecture decisions, helped teams ship robust, maintainable solutions, and enjoy collaborating with stakeholders to solve complex problems. While my core experience is in PHP (Symfony, Zend, Laravel) and related ecosystems, I’m a fast learner with a strong grasp of architectural principles — recognizing that languages differ in syntax, but clean code, scalable design, and sound problem-solving remain universal — and I’m eager to contribute to high-impact backend engineering teams in dynamic environments.
