You will get Dockerise a PHP / Laravel app + CI pipeline
Project details
Most people who'll containerise your PHP app have never written one. I have — nearly five years of production Laravel and Yii2 work. That's the difference: I know what a PHP app actually needs to run, so the container is right the first time — the PHP extensions, the database, Redis, queue workers, cron — not a generic template that breaks the moment your app does something real.
I write backends and I ship them. Containerisation and CI aren't a separate service I bolt on; they're how I deliver. I've rebuilt CI/CD across 20+ services in production and cut deploy time from 20 minutes to under 3.
You don't need a cloud architect with a Kubernetes diagram for this. You need your Laravel or Yii2 app packaged cleanly, a pipeline that builds and tests on every push, and — if you want it — a deploy you can trust, with a rollback for when something goes wrong. Right-sized, no overkill.
You get the Dockerfile, the compose setup, the pipeline config, and the scripts — all yours, documented and runnable. No black box, no lock-in.

About Pavel
PHP / Laravel Backend Engineer | Legacy Modernisation & Performance
Belgrade, Serbia - 7:17 am local time
apps, tangled legacy code, databases that turned into bottlenecks. Nearly five years
of production backend work. I write the code and ship it: containerised and
pipeline-ready, not handed off half-done.
What I do:
- Legacy modernisation and technical-debt refactoring — incremental, without stopping
the business (Service/Repository, layered architecture)
- Backend performance and SRE — profiling, caching (Redis), load testing, bottleneck
elimination
- Database query optimisation — query-plan analysis, index strategy, N+1 elimination
- Third-party API integration — webhooks, signature verification, async queues
(WhatsApp, Telegram, payment and delivery APIs)
- REST API design and backend logic in Laravel 7–10 and Yii2 (PHP 7.x–8.x)
A few recent results:
- Cut a critical PostgreSQL query from 12s to 87ms — query-plan analysis plus
targeted composite indexes
- Reduced CI/CD deploy time across 20+ services from 20 minutes to under 3
- Raised automated test coverage on a legacy codebase from 50% to 93%
- Extracted a hot data-processing job from PHP into Go: ~12× faster, 5× less memory
I deliver backends containerised (Docker, Nginx + PHP-FPM) and pipeline-ready
(GitHub Actions), so you don't need a separate DevOps resource to get my work into
production.
Working languages: English (strong written / async), French (fluent — FR, CH, BE, LU
with no language barrier), Russian (native). Based in Belgrade, CET — comfortable
across EU and US-overlap hours.
If you have a PHP codebase that's slow, fragile, or costing more to maintain every
quarter, send me the symptoms and I'll tell you what I'd look at first.
Steps for completing your project
After purchasing the project, send requirements so Pavel can start the project.
Delivery time starts when Pavel receives requirements from you.
Pavel works on your project following the steps below.
Revisions may occur after the delivery date.
Review & confirm setup
I review your codebase and confirm what the app needs to run — PHP version, extensions, database, Redis, queues, cron — and get a working baseline, so the container matches your app, not a generic template.
Containerise
I write the Dockerfile and docker-compose setup so your app and its services run cleanly in containers, the same way on any machine — no more "works on my machine" gaps between environments.
