Senior PHP Developer

I am a Senior PHP Developer with more than 10 years of experience building scalable web platforms, SaaS products, and high-load eCommerce systems for US and EU markets. My background is centered on PHP/Laravel backend architecture, API design, performance optimization, and cloud-native infrastructure.

I specialize in designing systems from scratch and improving them under production load. I have worked extensively with distributed systems, queues, observability, payment integrations, and backend performance tuning, with a strong focus on reliability and scalability.

My technical stack includes PHP, Laravel, Python/FastAPI, REST APIs, MySQL, PostgreSQL, Redis, Memcached, Docker, Kubernetes, Nginx, Linux, CI/CD, RabbitMQ, Kafka, Prometheus, and Grafana. I also have supporting frontend experience with Vue.js, JavaScript, Tailwind, and Bootstrap.

Over the years, I have contributed to product companies, agencies, and outsourcing teams across different domains including vending management, eCommerce, healthcare directories, and custom PrestaShop development. I have built internal analytics tools, product configurators, loyalty systems, reporting dashboards, and integrations with ERP and payment providers.

I have a strong record of delivering remote work for international clients and collaborating across distributed teams. My experience includes optimizing database queries, improving application performance, implementing monitoring stacks, and maintaining CI/CD workflows for containerized deployments.

I hold a degree in radio electronics and quantum information systems from Belarusian State University. I am fluent in Russian and have intermediate English, and I am comfortable working in technically demanding environments where backend architecture and system quality matter most.
