Symfony Expert certified on versions 6 and 7, I specialize in complex architectures and ambitious technical projects. I have modernized legacy bank intranets, developed DDD-driven backends deployed on AWS Lambda for major press publishers, and supported critical platform migrations for public services. Along the way, I have worked extensively with AWS (Lambda, SNS, SQS, CloudFront, SAM), ElasticSearch, Redis, RabbitMQ, and the full Symfony ecosystem — over 10 years across banking, public services, e-commerce, and press.
Beyond the code, I write about the real problems I encounter each article is experience I wish I had found earlier. Find them bellow.
