Position: Back-End Developer (PHP, Laravel) [remote-only]
Category: PHP
English level: intermediate
Years of experience: 3

⇢ Once upon a time, I started to write in PHP... Still alive and, unfortunately, now proficient with it.
⇢ I have my own 'framework' to learn new stuff and manage my knowledge.
⇢ I can operate highly abstracted systems, understand their interconnections, and how to manipulate them. Basically, it's systems thinking.
I've designed and built the back-end system that is used as a single interface to communicate with a variety of third-party APIs. It has different functionalities: from auth to project sharing to flexible user permissions per project to complex data collecting, syncing, processing, and publishing via third-party APIs to real-time notifications and closed super-admin panels, to banks and payment integrations.

I wrote and maintained extensive documentation for the project: starting from very detailed README and data-flow diagrams to easy-to-understand API docs and organized Postman Collections.

I improved some of the team's workflows and inner processes for clearer communication and fewer misunderstandings.

The next stack was used: PHP, Laravel, Passport, Guzzle, queues, schedulers, MySQL, Redis, patterns, notifications through WebSockets (broadcasting), BlueprintAPI, etc.

Before that, for my previous employer, I rebuilt a mid-sized project. This project has huge datasets and has been able to generate highly interactive data-driven entities. There was a closed administration panel to work with user-generated data or already existing datasets.

Here I worked with: PHP, Laravel, JavaScript, JQuery, MySQL, Redis, Bootstrap.

Between those two, I used to freelance for small businesses and creative people. Almost always I choose this stack for such projects: PHP, Laravel, Livewire or HTMX, Alpine, TailwindCSS, Ruby, Rails, MySQL, Redis.
**Remote only.**

Would love to work for a startup.

I work ONLY with Laravel & TALL Stack. Mostly as a back-end developer. So no Vue/React/etc.

I'm **NOT** looking for *Magento* jobs or *CMS* jobs. And again - ***remote*** only.
