I’m a Senior Software Engineer with 16+ years of experience in web and mobile application development, with strong expertise in PHP, Laravel, and Java. My primary focus is backend and full-stack web development, particularly building and maintaining Laravel/PHP applications, REST APIs, business logic, database-driven systems, and third-party integrations. I have extensive experience working with MVC architectures and have used frameworks including Laravel, Symfony, Zend, CodeIgniter, CakePHP, Yii, Grails, and Ruby on Rails. I have worked on projects ranging from new applications built from scratch to existing production systems that require troubleshooting, modernization, performance optimization, and ongoing feature development. I’m comfortable taking ownership of a project from understanding requirements and designing the solution through development, testing, deployment, and maintenance. My technical experience includes: * PHP / Laravel — backend development, REST APIs, MVC, business logic and integrations * Java / Grails / Spring — backend and web application development * Databases — MySQL, PostgreSQL, MongoDB, Oracle, SQL Server and SQLite * Frontend — JavaScript, AJAX, JSON, XML, HTML/CSS and modern JavaScript frameworks * Mobile — Android application development using Java * Other technologies — Python/Django, Ruby/Rails and various CMS platforms I also have experience with payment integrations, third-party APIs, database optimization, caching, queues, asynchronous processing, and scalable application architecture. I hold a Master’s degree in Software Engineering and an internationally recognized Java certification. I have participated in both national and international software projects and am comfortable working independently, collaborating with small development teams, and communicating directly with clients. I focus on writing clean, maintainable and reliable code, understanding the business problem behind a feature, and delivering solutions that can be maintained and extended over the long term.
