Tech Lead & Senior Full Stack Engineer – PHP · Laravel · Symfony · Vue.js · TypeScript · GCP

//I have been programming since the age of eleven. Software development is not just my profession — it is a lifelong discipline driven by curiosity, experimentation, and a deep passion for open source.

Tech Lead and Senior Full-Stack Engineer with 25 years of PHP expertise — spanning Laravel, Symfony, Vue.js, TypeScript, and Nuxt — and deep experience architecting business-critical web platforms from concept to production. Currently leading the technical direction of the OMNI Channel Platform at Sunrise: driving architectural decisions, establishing engineering standards, owning code quality, and acting as the primary technical interface with business and engineering stakeholders.

Specialist in backend systems, scripting and automation, modern frontend interfaces, and enterprise APIs — with strong experience in Salesforce ecosystems (LWC, platform integrations, enterprise data workflows) and AI-powered agent interfaces that integrate intelligent workflows into enterprise environments.

Deeply passionate about Linux and open source. Strong hands-on experience with Docker containerisation, CI/CD pipelines, cloud-native deployment, and DevOps practices that ensure scalability, reliability, and operational excellence.

Driven by ownership, technical excellence, and the continuous pursuit of improvement. Open to senior engineering positions, freelance engagements, and technical partnerships — Zürich, remote, or wherever the problem is worth solving.
