summary

I am a developer specialised in web technologies, with an emphasis on backend development. I have tackled many projects during the last 20 years, most prominently in PHP and JavaScript, acquiring relevant insights in tightly related subjects like DevOps, Database Administration, CI/CD Management, etc. At the moment, I am pushing for a deeper knowledge of Python and its most relevant frameworks to broaden my horizon.
