I started working with PHP in 2001 with small, enthusiastic, low-cost projects, then in 2005 did my first freelance project. Since then worked on a bunch of different freelance projects including projects for foreign clients. Then in 2011 joined an IT company as a backend-oriented specialist and worked on projects of different complexity and technology stacks as part of the client's team on an outstaff basis for different companies, including Aller Media and SimilarWeb.
I am looking for new opportunities to become part of a highly motivated and talented team in an exciting project where I can share my experience and knowledge to achieve breakthroughs and drive the project to a new level.

Some of my interests:
- Implementing backend using modern PHP frameworks like Symfony/Laravel.
- Knowledge/experience sharing
- Learning of new technologies/languages/libraries
- Data processing/importing/parsing
- Using third-party services (payment systems/data providers/etc.) through API or in any other way
- And many other
