I help businesses build fast, scalable, and maintainable web applications using Laravel and modern backend technologies. With more than 7 years of experience, I've worked on government platforms, ERP systems, fintech applications, e-commerce solutions, and SaaS products, solving performance bottlenecks and building systems that can grow with the business.
My biggest strength is backend development and performance optimization. I've optimized applications processing millions of MongoDB records, improved slow API endpoints, refactored legacy Laravel codebases, and built reliable background processing using Laravel Jobs, Redis, and RabbitMQ. Whether the goal is reducing response times, handling large datasets, or making an existing application easier to maintain, I enjoy solving those kinds of challenges.
API development and third-party integrations are another area I specialize in. I've designed and built RESTful APIs for web and mobile applications, integrated payment gateways, implemented real-time notifications with Laravel Reverb and WebSockets, and connected applications with a wide range of external services.
My primary stack includes PHP, Laravel, Lumen, Vue.js, Nuxt.js, MySQL, and MongoDB. I also work with Redis, RabbitMQ, Firebase, Node.js, Express.js, and VPS deployments using Nginx. I'm comfortable working across the full stack whenever a project requires it, but my main focus is building reliable backend systems.
In one of my recent projects, I developed an internal reporting dashboard that processed millions of MongoDB records using aggregation pipelines and Laravel Jobs. By combining background processing, caching, and query optimization, we significantly improved report generation and delivered a much better experience for users.
I write clean, maintainable code, communicate clearly, and enjoy working with both startups and established teams. Whether you need a Laravel expert to build a new application, improve an existing system, develop APIs, or optimize performance, I'd be glad to help.

๐ I help turn ideas into working AI-powered software products.
Iโm not just a developer who writes code from a task list. I work more like a technical product partner: I help you understand the workflow, define the right features, design the backend architecture, connect APIs, add AI where it creates real value, and build a reliable product that can run in production.
My strongest work is at the intersection of:
โ๏ธ Backend Engineering
๐ค AI Workflows
๐ API Integrations
๐ Data & Automation
๐งฉ Product Thinking
If you have an idea, a manual workflow, a messy process, or an existing system that needs to become smarter, faster, or more automated, I can help you turn it into a clean, usable, and scalable software product.
โโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโ
๐งฉ What I Help You Build
โโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโ
โ AI-powered SaaS products
โ Backend systems for startups and internal tools
โ API integrations between platforms and services
โ Python automation workflows
โ Laravel / PHP web applications
โ OCR and document extraction systems
โ AI agents connected to real business workflows
โ Voice AI, chatbot, and telephony automation
โ Web scraping and data extraction pipelines
โ Competitive intelligence and product-matching tools
โ Admin dashboards and operational portals
โ Workflow automation systems that reduce manual work
My goal is not only to deliver features, but to build systems that solve the actual business problem behind the feature request.
โโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโ
๐ From Idea to Working Product
โโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโ
Many clients come with an idea but not a complete technical plan.
That is where I help most.
I can help you answer questions like:
โข What should the MVP include?
โข What should be automated first?
โข Which parts need AI, and which parts do not?
โข What APIs or tools should we use?
โข How should the backend be structured?
โข What edge cases can break the workflow?
โข How do we make the system reliable after launch?
Then I turn that plan into working software.
โโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโ
โ๏ธ My Technical Strengths

๐ง How I Work
โโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโ
I focus on building software that is:
โ Useful for the business
โ Clean in architecture
โ Reliable in production
โ Easy to maintain
โ Designed around real workflows
โ Built with edge cases in mind
โ Ready to grow after the first version
I care about understanding why something is being built, not just how to build it.
That means I will challenge unclear requirements, suggest better technical approaches, simplify overcomplicated ideas, and help you avoid building the wrong thing.
โโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโ
๐ฏ Why Clients Work With Me
โโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโโ
Clients usually hire me when they need someone who can combine product thinking with strong technical execution.
I can help you move from:
๐ก Idea โ Product Requirements
๐งฉ Workflow โ System Design
โ๏ธ Manual Process โ Automation
๐ค AI Concept โ Working AI Feature
๐ Disconnected Tools โ Integrated Platform
๐ Raw Data โ Useful Business System
๐ MVP โ Production-Ready Product
If you need someone who can think through the product, design the system, and build the backend/API/automation layer behind it, I can help.
Send me a message with what you want to build, automate, or improve โ and Iโll help you turn it into a working product.

I have been a software engineer for seven years, and spent the last two building automation systems for small businesses on Upwork. 50+ projects, all rated 5.0.
I build in the tools you can maintain yourself like n8n, Make, Zapier, Airtable because you shouldn't need me every time something needs changing. The engineering background is what keeps those builds from breaking. When an API sends something unexpected, or a workflow runs fine in testing and falls over once it's live, that's usually where automation projects go wrong. That's the part I'm good at.
Some recent builds:
A marketing tracking system for a home services company in Florida. 13 workflows, 6 CallRail numbers across 3 cities, ad spend pulling in nightly from Meta and Google, duplicate leads filtered out, and a summary text to the owner every Monday morning. He can finally see which ad produced which lead.
A parking and reservation system in Airtable for an operator in Boston. Stripe payments, automatic confirmations, and an interface his staff actually runs the business from.
A student pipeline for a UK training provider. Application comes in, payment gets collected, cohort gets assigned, onboarding emails go out. Nobody touches it.
Tools: n8n, Make, Zapier, Airtable, OpenAI and Claude, Twilio, Stripe, CallRail, Shopify, Google Workspace, WhatsApp Business API.
The feedback I get most is that clients don't have to explain things twice. Tell me the outcome you want and I'll work out the path.
If something in your business is repetitive or held together by copy-paste and reminders, it can probably be automated. Happy to talk about where to start.
