Remote PHP development for agencies and product teams

Add a senior PHP developer—without the hiring delay.

I join established teams that need experienced PHP delivery without another long recruitment cycle. You work directly with the developer doing the work—from scoping and architecture to implementation, review and handoff.

What I can own

Senior PHP support for the work already on your roadmap.

Bring in a defined feature, a difficult integration or a codebase that needs steady ownership. Scope and responsibilities stay explicit from the start.

Web apps & SaaS

Business applications, portals, dashboards and SaaS features built around real workflows and maintainable domain logic.

Laravel delivery

New Laravel development, existing application improvements, queues, jobs, authentication and dependable release work.

APIs & integrations

REST APIs, payments, CRMs and third-party systems connected with clear validation, failure handling and documentation.

Legacy PHP rescue

Older applications assessed, stabilised and improved incrementally without forcing a risky rewrite by default.

Performance & reliability

Slow queries, fragile processes, background work and production issues traced to the cause and fixed pragmatically.

WordPress plugins & custom work

Purpose-built plugins, integrations and custom development when WordPress is genuinely the correct platform.

Ways to work together

A clear role, not an undefined outsourcing arrangement.

Start with a bounded piece of work. Continue only when the delivery and working relationship justify it.

Defined outcome

PHP Project

A scoped feature, integration, migration or application delivered through agreed milestones.

  • Technical scope before commitment
  • Milestone-based delivery
  • Code review and QA
  • Documentation and handoff
Discuss a project
Ongoing ownership

Engineering Support

Consistent PHP ownership for an application that needs regular improvements and technical continuity.

  • Roadmap and maintenance work
  • Architecture guidance
  • Performance improvements
  • Release and production support

Working fit

Useful capacity starts with honest expectations.

The best results come from direct communication, a real product owner and enough context to make responsible technical decisions.

A strong fit

You need senior delivery with clear ownership.

  • An existing team, agency or product owner can make decisions
  • The work has a meaningful outcome rather than an endless task list
  • Quality, communication and continuity matter alongside speed
  • You want risks raised early instead of hidden until the deadline
Probably not a fit

You are shopping only for the lowest hourly rate.

  • You need a large multi-role team to start immediately
  • The engagement depends on unpaid speculative work
  • Nobody is available to clarify priorities or review progress
  • You want silent task execution without technical questions

International client experience

Remote collaboration shaped by real client work.

I have worked directly with clients in the United States, Canada, the United Kingdom, Germany and other international markets. For roughly the past six years, most of my client work has been with US-based businesses—across time zones, established team workflows and direct stakeholder communication.

Before adding remote capacity

Practical questions about the engagement.

You should know who is doing the work, how communication runs and what you are committing to before sharing a repository.

I am an independent senior developer based in Croatia. There is no outsourcing agency or hidden delivery team between us—you communicate directly with the person reviewing and writing the code.

Yes. I can work inside an established Git, ticketing, review and deployment workflow. I first clarify ownership and communication so the extra capacity does not create duplicate work.

No. The engagement can be a defined project, reserved weekly capacity or ongoing engineering support. Scope, availability and notice periods are agreed before work begins.

Often, yes. I start with a focused technical assessment, confirm that the application can be run safely and identify the highest-risk areas before promising features or timelines.

I work from the Central European time zone. UK and European collaboration has natural overlap; regular overlap with other regions is agreed around the project’s actual communication needs.

Yes, for custom plugins, integrations and purpose-built development. It is a supporting capability rather than the main focus of this offer.

Bring the actual PHP problem

Find out if I can remove pressure from your roadmap.

Share the application, the work that is blocked and the timing you are working toward. I will respond directly with fit, availability and the most sensible next step.
