Senior Montreal PHP Laravel developer with 14 years experience and excellent references delivering quality code fast with human-friendly approach.

15 years' experience in advanced open-source software PHP development, with specific emphasis on long-term architecture, security, and high-availability scaling. CTO-level skills and experience with startups, as well as teams of 400+ devs for major international brands.

Example projects: OAuth2 APIs, CDNs (S3/Rackspace etc), e-commerce processing (Stripe, Braintree), queueing (Redis, Beanstalkd, AMQP etc), NoSQL & graph databases (Neo4j), dynamic PDF generation, image creation/manipulation (Instagram-style filters etc), video encoding/streaming (Wowza, Red), server data encryption, Cloud/server setup with services (cron, backups, supervisor), client email management (Mandrill, Mailgun), multi-lingual UI apps. And plenty more.

Typically find myself on the phone to clients who a) have projects their devs are struggling with because of complexity, bI need something resolved fast at low-cost, and c) are using unusual technologies (WebGL, HLS video streaming, IoT/mobile device integration, AES encryption etc).

Very friendly and personable British guy with a lot more interests than tapping keys in a cupboard wearing a heavy metal t-shirt. Traveled to more than 50 countries and worked with clients from all over the world.

Work Terms

Negotiable based on project requirements, scope, and timescale. Rates based on complexity.
