Zoran S.

Senior Laravel Developer | SaaS, ERP & Legacy PHP Modernization

Struggling with a Laravel system that needs to scale, automate, and stay reliable? I'm a senior Laravel developer and CTO of a Laravel Community Partner agency, with 115+ Upwork jobs and $200K+ earned. I build SaaS platforms, ERP and order systems, and modernize legacy PHP apps without a risky rewrite, backed by 12 years of running a trading and logistics company. 🎯 HOW I CAN HELP YOU LARAVEL SAAS AND E-COMMERCE Turn your product idea into a SaaS platform or online store that grows with your users instead of forcing a rebuild later. I have shipped Laravel systems that scaled from a few hundred to tens of thousands of customers on the same infrastructure, with payments and business logic that hold up under load. ERP, ORDER MANAGEMENT AND LEGACY MODERNIZATION Replace spreadsheets, manual workflows, or an aging PHP app with a system that gives you control over stock, orders, invoices, and operations. I spent 12 years running a trading and logistics company, so I build tools that match how real businesses work, and I modernize existing systems step by step instead of betting on a risky rewrite. INTEGRATIONS, AUTOMATION AND IOT Connect your apps, services, and hardware so work moves faster with less manual effort. I build practical API integrations and automations, and use AI only where it reduces cost or saves time. My electronics engineering background covers GSM controllers and MQTT systems connected to Laravel APIs. 🏆 RESULTS "Zoran is not only senior dev, but a senior dev with good communication skills and business sense, which is quite a rare combination." – Ticket Go T., Client "I had the pleasure of working with Zoran for over three months, and I can confidently say he delivered outstanding work.

HOW WE CAN START 1. A paid 1-hour architecture call to review your idea or existing codebase. 2. A fixed-price discovery: scope, risks, and a realistic estimate. 3. Straight into milestones if your spec is ready. I respond within 4 hours (CET) and can move quickly on urgent projects. HOW I WORK I build Laravel applications with React on the frontend, and I keep data reliable in MySQL while I design APIs that connect systems cleanly. I use Docker to keep environments consistent, Git to manage changes safely, and PostgreSQL when a project needs stronger data handling. For client-facing features, I integrate payment gateways and shape the architecture so the product can scale without surprises.
