Summary

As a Specialist Software Engineer with 15 years of dedicated experience in the PHP ecosystem, I build and scale resilient applications designed for performance. My expertise lies in translating complex business needs into efficient technical solutions, driving projects through the entire development lifecycle from architecture to delivery. My technical expertise is centered on PHP and its frameworks, including Laravel, Zend, and Yii, for both synchronous and asynchronous communication. I am highly proficient in deploying containerized applications to cloud platforms like AWS and GCP, managing infrastructure and CI/CD pipelines with tools such as GitLab, Jenkins, Docker, and Azure DevOps. My experience encompasses designing and managing both SQL (MySQL) and NoSQL (DynamoDB) databases, as well as ensuring application stability through the use of monitoring tools like New Relic. Beyond implementation, I provide strong technical leadership, mentoring engineers on best practices such as SOLID, Clean Code, and TDD, and introducing modern concepts like "Doc as Code" to improve process and maintainability.
