CAREER SUMMARY
I am a remote Laravel Full-Stack Developer with 7+ years of experience building scalable web
applications, SaaS platforms, and business systems for startups and companies across Europe
and Africa.
I specialize in Laravel backend development, REST API design, and modern frontend frameworks
like React, Next.js, and Vue. I help clients turn designs and ideas into reliable, secure, and
high-performance applications.
My services include backend architecture, API integrations, payment systems, authentication
(SSO), database optimization, and deployment to Linux servers. I have worked fully remotely
with international teams, collaborating through Git, Slack, Trello, and CI/CD pipelines.
If you need a developer who communicates clearly, delivers clean code, and understands
real-world business requirements, I can help you build and maintain your product remotely.
