I'm a backend engineer from Kyiv, mostly working in Laravel. I like making complicated things boring.

Backend architecture, distributed systems, databases, and integrations are my bread and butter.

📬 spoolrail
Laravel-native message brokering for distributed systems, with one API across RabbitMQ, Google Pub/Sub, and AWS SNS/SQS.

🐘 frankenstack
Laravel-first Docker image for FrankenPHP. Supports both classic and worker runtime mode.

I stay hands-on and treat AI as a collaborator. Less upfront orchestration, more figuring things out together. The goal is to make the right changes, not just more of them. I keep each contribution small enough to review in one sitting.

Codex app is my main AI tool. See my 🚜 dotcodex for common rules, skills, and workflows.

I work on macOS with Zed, TablePlus, and Yaak, using Docker or Laravel Herd for local runtimes.
