About Alix

Need to stabilize, secure, or evolve a Symfony application without adding technical debt?

I design, fix, and optimize PHP/Symfony (v6/7) projects with a focus on quality, performance, and security.

I intervene in particular to:
  • take over an unstable or difficult-to-maintain project
  • improve performance and scalability
  • secure an application (AppSec, hardening, best practices)
  • refactor existing code without breaking everything
  • manage a clean and controlled version upgrade

My goal is simple:

deliver reliable, readable, and durable code that you can evolve with confidence.

Method:
  • structured and maintainable code
  • systematic testing and validation
  • architecture-oriented approach
  • clear communication, without technical ambiguity

Positioning:

I work particularly well on:
  • existing projects to be upgraded
  • environments with security challenges
  • codebases needing rigor and stability

Availability:

Flexible availability outside of office hours
(ideal for targeted missions: audit, refactoring, version upgrade, optimization)
  • French

    Native or bilingual

  • English

    Fluent
