Backend Engineer & Infrastructure Specialist | Laravel, Linux, APIs, Cloudflare | Building secure, scalable, production-ready systems.
I'm a Backend Engineer and Infrastructure Specialist with a strong focus on building secure, reliable, and maintainable systems.
My primary expertise is Laravel backend development, REST API design, Linux server administration, infrastructure automation, Cloudflare security, virtualization, and production deployments.
I enjoy solving technical problems that require both software engineering and infrastructure knowledge. Whether it's developing a new backend, integrating external APIs, hardening Linux servers, optimizing deployments, or improving system reliability, I aim to deliver practical solutions that work in production.
My technical experience includes:
• Laravel application development
• REST API design and integrations
• PHP (5.x to latest)
• Livewire & Filament
• MySQL & MongoDB
• Linux server administration
• Docker & containerized deployments
• Proxmox virtualization
• Cloudflare WAF, DNS, and edge security
• Nginx, Apache, LiteSpeed
• Git and GitHub workflows
I believe that good software is not only about writing code. It should also be secure, maintainable, observable, and easy to operate.
I value clear communication, realistic planning, and long-term reliability. I work comfortably as an independent engineer or as part of an existing development team.
If you're looking for someone who understands both backend development and the infrastructure behind it, I'd be happy to help.
