Backend developer specializing in Laravel, CodeIgniter 4, and REST APIs — with AI-assisted, agentic workflows in daily practice.
I'm a PHP backend developer focused on building scalable APIs and clean, maintainable systems with Laravel and CodeIgniter 4. I care about database performance, testable code, and shipping software that's easy to extend a year from now — not just today.
I actively use AI-assisted development (Claude, Codex) as part of my workflow, and I'm increasingly building AI-powered and agentic applications alongside traditional backend work.
