Portfolio

Selected work

A selection of platforms and systems I have worked on. Descriptions stay at architecture level where client details are confidential.

VIRPP

Music distribution platform

A music distribution and A&R platform connecting artists, labels and stores, with large-scale data flows between internal systems and third parties.

Problem
A growing platform with artist uploads, label workflows, payouts and dozens of external integrations needed a backend that stayed maintainable while feature scope kept expanding.
Solution
Laravel backend with clearly separated domains, administration and label dashboards, internal and public APIs, payment flows, queue-driven background processing and third-party integrations.
Outcome
A platform where new distribution features, payment methods and integrations can be added without rewriting the core.
  • Laravel
  • PHP
  • Next.js
  • MySQL
  • Redis
  • Docker
  • Stripe
  • PayPal
  • Apple Pay
  • Google Play
  • Mailgun
  • Algolia
  • Sentry

Enterprise Insurance AI Platform

Enterprise AI architecture

An insurance platform where AI agents operate on top of existing business systems and document knowledge.

Problem
Domain knowledge lived in policies, documents and legacy systems. Answers required both retrieval and live data — a plain chatbot could not be trusted with either.
Solution
Laravel application extended with AI agents on Microsoft AI Foundry: RAG over enterprise documents, MCP and tool calling to reach business systems, and structured workflows that keep deterministic logic out of the model.
Outcome
AI features grounded in real company data and system state, with explicit boundaries around what the model is allowed to do.
  • Laravel
  • PHP
  • Microsoft AI Foundry
  • Azure OpenAI
  • RAG
  • MCP
  • Tool calling
  • REST APIs

Custom SaaS & Business Platforms

Business applications

Custom business applications, dashboards, administration systems, automation platforms and integrations for a range of organisations.

Problem
Off-the-shelf tooling stops where a company's actual process begins — usually at integrations, reporting and edge cases.
Solution
Tailored Laravel and Symfony applications with API layers, admin interfaces, automation and integrations into the systems the business already relies on.
Outcome
Systems that fit the process instead of forcing the process to fit the tool.
  • Laravel
  • Symfony
  • PHP
  • Vue
  • React
  • TypeScript
  • MySQL
  • Docker
  • CI/CD

Positioning

Why work with me

What you get when you hand over a difficult system instead of a small task.

Senior-level experience

Years of building and maintaining production software, working in complex codebases and systems that people depend on daily.

Backend depth

Deep expertise in PHP, Laravel and Symfony — architecture, data modelling, queues, APIs and performance.

Full-stack capability

Backend, frontend, APIs, infrastructure and deployment. No handover gaps between the parts of a system.

AI engineering

Hands-on integration of AI agents, RAG, MCP and Microsoft AI Foundry into real applications, not proofs of concept.

Business-oriented engineering

Technology choices are made to solve a business problem. Complexity has to earn its place.

Ownership

Comfortable owning a project end to end: talking to stakeholders, making decisions and delivering production-ready software.
