Position: Middle Laravel back-end developer
Category: PHP
English level: upper
Years of experience: 4

Implemented RSA request signing authentication mechanism.

Implemented and heavily utilized Laravel queues (using Horizon as well). Developed a solution for a Laravel project to support unique jobs in queues (disallowing duplicates).

Tinkered with PostgreSQL full text search feature with Ukrainian dictionaries and lexemes.
Most prominent projects:

- Back-end for a shopping mall loyalty system. The system had complex bonus calculation algorithm, sales and accounting module, administrative control panel, API for users (mobile apps) and retailers, various 3rd party integrations (sales automation, cinema, parking, payment merchants).

- Back-end for a cinema (integrated into the aforementioned mall loyalty system). Used to cache movie and session metadata, allowed mobile app users to preview hall layouts and buy tickets online utilizing their mall bonuses.

- A web app for university students to find suitable professors for their dissertations. The app calculated weighted distance between students and professors and utilized full text search to match keywords with available dissertation topics. It also had web UI and provided both parties with profiles that had to be filled.

- Internal database web app for Ukrainian Boxing Federation, designed to store various boxer/coach/referee data to minimize paperwork. Had a web control panel with access rights differentiation.

Also developed many other simpler projects featuring web control panels and mobile APIs.
Wouldn't like to work heavily on front-end stuff. Something simple or templated (such as administrative web control panels) is perfectly fine though.

Not open to relocation due to family matters.

Other than that I'm not too picky. Wouldn't mind to learn new technologies or switch frameworks.
