Back to original languageAbout Garbin
Senior full-stack web developer with over 11 years of experience in designing custom platforms, marketplaces, SaaS, and API integrations.
I work on projects where the technical aspect needs to be robust AND well-managed: I develop, but I also think about decisions that impact the project's future; architecture, costs, scalability.
What I do concretely:
- Custom back-end and full-stack development (PHP, JavaScript / TypeScript, Nuxt.js, AdonisJS)
- API and third-party service integrations: Stripe, Twilio, Supabase, and any REST API
- WordPress / WooCommerce: development, advanced integrations, takeover of existing sites
- High-volume real-time platforms, marketplaces, matching systems
- Takeover and security of poorly executed existing projects
Some achievements:
- A high-traffic real-time matching platform (Twilio telephony, high volumes),
- A mobility SaaS completely taken over after a provider's failure,
- A platform connecting legal professionals and individuals with recurring payments.
- A B2B matching platform in ophthalmology replacement.
My difference:I don't just execute. I frame, I advise, and I guide technical choices => useful when you are leading a project without an internal technical profile.

It was during this period that I understood that the success of a web project rarely depends on the technology chosen.
