Development Services
Focused expertise for founders and CTOs building web applications, SaaS products, and cloud-backed platforms.
Laravel Development
Laravel is my primary backend framework for web applications and SaaS products. I build APIs, admin tooling, queue workers, and authentication layers with clear architecture — from early MVPs to established products that need refactoring or extension.
Benefits
- Clean application structure using Laravel conventions and best practices
- Authentication, authorization, and API resources with Sanctum or Passport
- Background jobs, event-driven workflows, and queue processing
- Integration with React, Vue, or mobile clients via well-documented APIs
Approach
- 1Requirements review and architecture planning
- 2Database schema design and API contract definition
- 3Iterative development with weekly demos
- 4Automated testing on critical business logic
- 5Staging validation and production deployment
Symfony Development
For complex domain logic and enterprise requirements, Symfony provides the modularity and rigor needed for long-lived applications. I use Symfony for multi-tenant SaaS platforms, API-first backends, and systems where strict separation of concerns matters.
Benefits
- Component-based architecture for complex domain models
- Doctrine ORM for sophisticated data relationships
- API Platform for rapid REST and GraphQL endpoint generation
- Code structured for long-term maintainability and team handoff
Approach
- 1Domain analysis and bounded context mapping
- 2Bundle and service architecture design
- 3Sprint-based development with CI/CD
- 4Performance profiling on critical paths
- 5Documentation and knowledge transfer
React Development
I build React applications with TypeScript — admin dashboards, customer-facing interfaces, and component libraries. Focus on performance, accessibility, and code that your team can extend without fighting the architecture.
Benefits
- Component-driven UI with consistent design patterns
- TypeScript throughout for safer refactoring
- State management chosen to match application complexity
- Responsive, accessible interfaces tested across browsers
Approach
- 1UI wireframing and component planning
- 2Component library and design token setup
- 3API integration and state management
- 4Cross-browser and responsive testing
- 5Performance review and bundle optimization
Next.js Development
Next.js for marketing sites, SaaS landing pages, and content-driven products that need strong SEO and performance. I use App Router, server components, and edge deployment to keep pages fast without overcomplicating the stack.
Benefits
- Server-side rendering and static generation for SEO
- App Router with sensible server/client component boundaries
- Built-in image optimization and metadata management
- Deployment on Vercel or AWS with monitoring
Approach
- 1Route architecture and content strategy
- 2Server/client component planning
- 3CMS or headless content integration
- 4SEO metadata and structured data
- 5Production deployment and performance baseline
SaaS Development
Building SaaS products end-to-end — tenant architecture, Stripe billing, onboarding flows, role-based access, and admin dashboards. I focus on getting the foundations right so you're not rebuilding when you gain traction.
Benefits
- Multi-tenant architecture with proper data isolation
- Stripe integration for subscriptions and usage billing
- Role-based access control and team management
- Admin dashboards for operations and customer management
Approach
- 1Product scoping and MVP definition
- 2Tenant and billing model architecture
- 3Core feature development in 2-week sprints
- 4Beta testing with early users
- 5Infrastructure review as usage grows
API Development
Well-designed APIs are the backbone of modern products. I build REST and GraphQL endpoints with versioning, authentication, rate limiting, and documentation — so your web, mobile, and third-party integrations work reliably together.
Benefits
- OpenAPI documentation for developer onboarding
- OAuth 2.0, JWT, and token-based authentication
- Rate limiting and input validation
- Webhook systems for event-driven integrations
Approach
- 1API contract design and review
- 2Authentication and authorization layer
- 3Endpoint development with automated tests
- 4Documentation and example requests
- 5Load testing on critical endpoints
AWS Cloud Solutions
AWS setup, migration, and optimization for web applications and SaaS products. From EC2 and RDS to Lambda, S3, and CloudFront — infrastructure matched to your traffic and budget, with room to grow.
Benefits
- Infrastructure sized appropriately for current needs
- Auto-scaling configured where traffic patterns warrant it
- CI/CD pipelines with GitHub Actions or CodePipeline
- Cost monitoring and optimization recommendations
Approach
- 1Current infrastructure assessment
- 2Architecture design with IaC (Terraform or CloudFormation)
- 3Staging environment setup and validation
- 4Production deployment with monitoring
- 5Ongoing cost and performance review
Database Optimization
Slow queries and poor schema design show up as sluggish pages and rising infrastructure costs. I profile your database, optimize queries, design indexes for your access patterns, and add caching where it makes a measurable difference.
Benefits
- Slow query analysis and optimization
- Index strategy aligned to how data is actually accessed
- Read replicas and Redis caching where appropriate
- Zero-downtime migration planning for schema changes
Approach
- 1Performance baseline and slow query review
- 2Bottleneck identification and prioritization
- 3Query and index optimization
- 4Caching layer implementation
- 5Monitoring setup for ongoing visibility
Performance Optimization
Performance work across the stack: Core Web Vitals on the frontend, slow endpoints on the backend, and misconfigured infrastructure. I identify what's actually causing the problem and fix it, with before-and-after measurements.
Benefits
- Core Web Vitals analysis and frontend improvements
- Backend response time reduction via caching and query fixes
- CDN and asset delivery optimization
- Documented results with measurable benchmarks
Approach
- 1Full-stack audit with baseline measurements
- 2Priority-ranked list of improvements
- 3Frontend bundle analysis and code splitting
- 4Backend profiling and caching implementation
- 5Before/after performance report
Maintenance & Support
Applications need attention after launch. I provide ongoing maintenance — security patches, dependency updates, bug fixes, and feature work — on a retainer basis so you have a consistent engineering partner as your product evolves.
Benefits
- Regular security patches and dependency updates
- Error monitoring and incident response
- Scheduled hours for feature requests and fixes
- Periodic health checks and improvement recommendations
Approach
- 1Application audit and maintenance plan
- 2Monitoring and alerting configuration
- 3Scheduled update and patch cycles
- 4Defined response times for issues
- 5Regular check-ins on product priorities
