Backend
Web Developer

In today's technology landscape, backend development plays a crucial role in ensuring that web applications are secure, performant and scalable. Two of the most powerful and versatile technologies for backend development are WordPress and Laravel. Each of these platforms has its own distinctive strengths, and mastering them allows you to create robust and customized solutions for different business needs.

WordPress offers a flexible and intuitive environment for creating dynamic and scalable websites, while Laravel stands out for its elegance and power in developing complex APIs and custom applications. The combination of these skills allows me to tackle a wide range of projects, ensuring high performance and efficient data management.

Thanks to a structured and best practices-oriented approach, I develop backend solutions optimized for security, stability and scalability, ensuring a solid and performant infrastructure.

WordPress is one of the most popular CMS in the world, used by over 40% of websites on the Internet. Initially conceived as a blogging platform, it has transformed into a versatile tool for backend development. Today it is ideal for creating corporate sites, e-commerce, complex portals and custom web applications.

Its modular architecture allows you to easily extend its functionality through customized themes and plugins, making it highly adaptable to the needs of any digital project. Thanks to its flexibility and ease of use, WordPress continues to be the preferred choice for developers and companies looking for scalable and high-performance solutions, while maintaining an intuitive interface for content management.

WordPress can have speed and security issues if not configured properly, but with the right strategies you can ensure high performance and protect user data. To optimize loading speed, I use advanced caching systems such as WP Rocket, W3 Total Cache, Varnish, Memcached and Redis, which store static versions of pages to reduce server response times. I also optimize SQL queries and customize database requests to improve overall efficiency.

To ensure a high level of security, I implement best practices such as protection against XSS (Cross-Site Scripting) attacks and SQL Injection. I limit access to system files by configuring strict permissions, and I use monitoring tools to track user activity. This proactive approach helps prevent unauthorized access and potential vulnerabilities.

I also adopt advanced security measures such as implementing two-factor authentication (2FA), encrypting communications via HTTPS, and configuring application firewalls (WAF) to protect the site from external threats. In this way, I ensure optimal performance and a safe environment for users.

I implement secure payment systems using WooCommerce, Stripe and PayPal, customizing the entire checkout experience to fit the specific needs of the customer. This includes integrating local payment methods, optimizing the checkout flow and adding flexible options to increase conversions. I ensure a simple and secure checkout process, improving user trust and satisfaction.

To create multilingual websites, I use WPML or Polylang, ensuring accurate translation and a consistent user experience on a global scale. This approach allows you to reach an international audience, improving accessibility and engagement.

I integrate WordPress with Zapier, HubSpot, Salesforce or MailChimp to automate marketing and manage contacts effectively. This solution allows you to segment your audience, send targeted campaigns and monitor user engagement with detailed analytics, optimizing your digital marketing strategies.

Laravel is a modern and robust PHP framework, widely recognized for its elegance and simplicity in developing scalable APIs and complex web applications. Its MVC (Model-View-Controller) architecture allows for a clear separation of application logic from presentation, ensuring organized, modular and easily maintainable code.

One of Laravel's strengths is its expressive and intuitive syntax, which makes development fast and enjoyable. It includes a set of integrated tools such as Eloquent ORM for managing databases and an advanced routing system for defining flexible endpoints. It also offers security enhancements with integrated authentication, authorization management and CSRF protection.

Thanks to its flexibility and robust ecosystem of packages, Laravel is an excellent choice for developing modern web applications, ensuring scalability and high performance.

Laravel is ideal for developing RESTful APIs that are both high-performance and secure, offering a set of advanced tools to manage authentication and authorization of requests. Thanks to its modular architecture and advanced routing system, it allows you to define flexible endpoints and organize your code in a clean and maintainable way.

To ensure a high level of security, I use Laravel Sanctum, a lightweight yet powerful solution for API authentication. Sanctum allows you to generate secure API Tokens to authenticate requests, thus protecting sensitive endpoints from unauthorized access. This implementation allows you to easily manage access to protected resources, while maintaining a seamless and secure user experience.

In addition, Laravel offers built-in security middleware, such as CSRF protection and HTTP request filtering, to ensure maximum protection of your APIs. Its scalability and flexibility make it ideal for developing modern and scalable applications.

Laravel offers extraordinary flexibility in integrating with external services and building microservices-based architectures, making it ideal for developing modern and scalable applications. Thanks to its modular structure and native support for RESTful APIs, it allows you to easily connect to a wide range of third-party services.

I implement payment APIs such as Stripe and PayPal to manage secure and efficient transactions, customizing the payment experience according to the user's needs. I also use Google Maps for advanced geolocation capabilities and MailChimp to automate marketing and email campaign management.

Additionally, Laravel offers integrated tools for middleware management, API authentication and communication security, making it an excellent choice for microservices-based implementations.
