01 Summary

PHP specialist and Senior Fullstack Developer with more than 20 years of software development experience, focused on business-critical solutions, compliance and the evolution of legacy systems.

I have been working on the web since 2006, after starting my career in desktop development with Visual Basic, and have followed the evolution of the industry's main stacks and architectures. I have worked in fintech, payments, retail, information security and tracking, with strong hands-on work in PHP/Laravel, Go and Node.js, plus frontend with React and Vue.

Throughout my career I have prioritized hands-on practice and delivery; on some projects I took on additional responsibilities as the right hand of the technology lead, broadening my work into software engineering, infrastructure optimization and reducing dependency on third parties.
