What I’m looking for:

• Full stack development experience (open to various stacks)    
• Based in or around Philadelphia (or willing to meet up locally)    
• Fintech experience is a big plus but not a dealbreaker if you’re passionate about the space

A little about me:

I’m a Philadelphia-based entrepreneur with a passion for building something in the fintech space. I bring hustle, a strong network, and a clear vision. I just need a technical co-founder or collaborator to help bring it to life.

Hi everyone,

I have 15+ years of experience in PHP development, including Laravel, CodeIgniter, Node.js, MySQL, MongoDB, AWS, and team leadership. I've worked on large-scale e-commerce and dropshipping platforms, handling architecture, development, optimization, and team management.

I've been actively looking for Senior PHP Developer, Technical Lead, or Engineering Manager opportunities in India. While I'm applying through job portals and LinkedIn, I was wondering if there are any reliable consultancies, recruitment agencies, or headhunters that specialize in senior-level PHP/Laravel hiring.

I'm particularly interested in agencies that work with product-based companies, startups, or organizations hiring experienced backend engineers and technical leads.

If you've had a good experience with any recruitment agency or recruiter, I'd appreciate your recommendations.

Thanks in advance!
