Lead Developer @ PDS
Backend systems, infrastructure, and platform engineering.

I design and build scalable applications, focusing on performance, maintainability, and operational simplicity. My work spans backend development, DevOps, and infrastructure across modern cloud-native environments.

• Backend development (PHP, Laravel, Go)
• Infrastructure & DevOps (Docker, Kubernetes, Linux)
• Managing containerised workloads and production environments across Kubernetes
• System design, performance, and scalability
• Automation and internal tooling

Evaluating AI-assisted development tooling — understanding where it accelerates delivery, and where manual engineering still provides better control, quality, and long-term maintainability.

• Leading development across multiple concurrent projects and platforms
• Designing and operating production infrastructure
• Building reusable systems to improve delivery speed and reliability

Homelab enthusiast operating a self-hosted environment for infrastructure experimentation, service orchestration, and testing production-like systems.

I care about building systems that are not only functional, but reliable, scalable, and easy to operate.
