I love working on growing web platforms. This requires the right combination of people, processes, technology and strategy. As a web developer with management and executive experience I've proven several times I'm proficient in finding that mix: I've successfully tackled technology and strategy related challenges for companies in startup and scaleup phase, both as employee and external advisor.
In the software development field I'm a full-stack developer with focus on back-end and affinity for architecture, so I'm able to build and scale full software solutions. Most of my professional experience is with the PHP stack, but I also used other languages in advisory work and pet projects.
I've worked for organizations in the following domains: International E-commerce, Digital credit/prepaid, E-fulfillment, Productivity, and PropTech. Most of my professional career I was employed by Recharge.com, formerly known as Creative Group and SMScity.com.
