How these skills fit together
My core work is backend engineering with PHP, Laravel and Symfony, using Eloquent and Doctrine for data access, queues and background jobs for slow work, and legacy modernization for older systems. On top of that I build REST APIs with request validation, authentication and authorization, pagination, filtering and sorting, webhooks and third-party integrations, including Kong API Gateway.
Data and reliability complete the picture. I model data and write migrations for MySQL, PostgreSQL and MongoDB, design distributed systems with microservices, Apache Kafka, event-driven design, DDD and CQRS, and protect them with Keycloak, role-based access control and token-based access. I check the work with Pest, Cypress, PHPStan, TDD, code review and refactoring.
