Senior Backend Engineer · PHP/Laravel · Go
I build backend systems that can be understood, tested and operated with confidence.
Ten years of experience building SaaS platforms, payment systems and distributed services. I enjoy complex problems, explicit boundaries and trade-offs that hold up in production.
Selected work

What I am looking for
An individual contributor backend role in a team that believes in its product.
Target
Senior Backend Engineer or backend-focused Senior Software Engineer, with real technical ownership.
Environment
A useful product, B2B SaaS, fintech, security, compliance or critical systems. Genuine remote work from Strasbourg.
Not looking for
People management, permanent coordination, feature factories or primarily frontend roles.
How I work
Complexity deserves structure. Not ceremony.
Understand before abstracting
I look for the real problem, invariants and boundaries before choosing an architecture.
Make failure testable
Retries, timeouts, concurrency and inconsistencies should not remain impossible-to-reproduce accidents.
Stay hands-on
I take ownership of complex topics, help others become more autonomous and stay close to the code.
