About Vivien

With over 10 years of experience in development, I specialize in PHP solutions — whether working independently or using robust frameworks like Symfony, Zend, or Phalcon.

I bring a strong backend focus: RESTful API design, SQL optimization, MVC architecture, unit testing, and endpoint security — all to ensure solid, scalable foundations.

Beyond technical expertise, I integrate seamlessly into teams with a proactive and autonomous mindset. I’m comfortable discussing business goals, aligning with product visions, and focusing on delivering MVPs quickly and efficiently. I understand the importance of iteration, value delivery, and time-to-market.

I also offer fullstack capabilities, with solid frontend skills in native JavaScript and strong SEO knowledge — helping deliver smooth, user-focused experiences from backend to interface.
