About Marin

Business Apps Dev | Symfony | Analysis & Scoping

You have a business need, a process to structure, or an internal tool to create?
I step in to transform a field reality into a concrete, reliable, and truly usable application.

Full-stack developer with a dual background in development and project management, I design tailor-made tools based on real-world usage. My experience in popular education allows me to quickly understand a profession, analyze a work environment, and identify the real needs behind an initial request.

I work across the entire chain:
  • Scoping and clarifying needs
  • Functional and technical design
  • Development of web applications and APIs
  • Structuring business logic and data
  • Deployment and team support
Recent projects:
  • Schneider Electric – redesign of an e-commerce and product return management system
  • Horsplace – R&D and development of a connected solution combining software and e-ink display
  • Kosa – mobile-first field data collection application with secure API, geolocation data, and validation workflow
  • Doc2Sail – business tool for document management and organization for the nautical industry
My approach:
  • Business & Field: understanding real usage, operational constraints, and users
  • Backend & API: Symfony, API Platform, PHP, PostgreSQL, MySQL
  • Deployment: Docker, CI/CD, documentation, clean production deployment
Services
Business application scoping | Custom MVP | Business API | Legacy system takeover | Internal tools

Why work with me?
✓ Quick understanding of business needs
✓ Pragmatic approach focused on real-world usage
✓ Maintainable, scalable, and documented solutions

→ My goal: to design tools that are actually used, aligned with your business reality.
