I build the backend systems that keep web apps fast and stable under real traffic. Over 8 years I've developed Symfony services handling 1M+ API requests a month, redesigned REST APIs to cut response times by 40%, and led a monolith-to-microservices migration that made a growing platform easier to scale and maintain. I've integrated payment gateways (Xendit), optimized PostgreSQL queries, and shipped React and Angular front ends when the work called for full-stack ownership.
My core stack is PHP (Symfony, Laravel) and Node.js on the backend, with React and TypeScript on the front. I also fold AI-assisted tools (Claude, Copilot, Cursor) into my workflow to move faster on boilerplate and code review — without cutting corners on quality. Most of my experience comes from high-traffic marketplace and PropTech environments (Lamudi, Digital Room), so I'm comfortable with production systems that can't afford to break.
I'm easy to work with, communicate clearly across the stack, and care about clean, maintainable code that the next person can actually read. If you're building something that needs a reliable backend engineer who can also cover full-stack, I'd be glad to talk through what you're working on and where I could help.
