Senior Laravel & AI SaaS Architect with 18+ years of experience

Senior Laravel & AI SaaS Architect with 18+ years of experience and 18,900+ Upwork hours, building scalable multi-tenant SaaS platforms and AI-powered products from idea to production.

I'm a Senior Laravel & AI SaaS Architect with 18+ years of experience turning ideas into scalable, production-ready software. I specialize in multi-tenant SaaS platforms, AI-powered business applications, and high-performance Laravel systems — and I care as much about your business outcomes as the code behind them. Most recently I architected and built Nexarise Suite — an AI-powered platform unifying POS, CRM, Inventory, Accounting, HRM, and eCommerce, with an integrated AI layer for chat, sales, and RAG-based knowledge search. Over 18+ years I've led teams of 3–6 developers, maintained long-term remote relationships with US-based clients, and earned a strong Upwork track record with a Top Rated Plus history and 18,900+ hours. I'm a Laravel Certified Developer, Zend Certified Engineer, and two-time BASIS Freelancer Award winner. Today I combine deep software-engineering experience with modern AI-assisted workflows (Cursor AI, Claude Code) to ship faster — without compromising clean, maintainable architecture.

AI-era engineering

AI-assisted engineering focus

I fold modern AI tools and agents into a disciplined engineering workflow — for speed without sacrificing quality.

AI-Assisted Development

I use Cursor AI and Claude Code to accelerate Laravel development, refactoring, debugging, documentation, and testing — without sacrificing clean, maintainable architecture.

AI-Powered SaaS Features

I design and ship customer support agents, sales assistants, product Q&A, and business report assistants built directly into real SaaS products.

RAG, Embeddings & Agents

I build grounded, intelligent features with RAG, vector search (PostgreSQL + pgvector), embeddings, AI agents, the OpenAI and Claude APIs, and MCP.

Experience meets modern AI

I combine 18+ years of software-engineering experience with modern AI tools and agentic workflows to deliver real business value.
