Symfony Development
Full-cycle Symfony development: new applications, new modules and functionality, REST API, Doctrine, Messenger, authentication and authorization, integrations, background processing, legacy Symfony work, refactoring, testing and support of existing systems.
Is your Symfony project hard to extend or maintain?
Typical situations I help with:
- new modules take too long to deliver;
- legacy Symfony code slows down development;
- Doctrine mappings and queries are messy or slow;
- API endpoints are inconsistent or undocumented;
- Messenger consumers and background processing are unreliable;
- integrations with third-party services break;
- there are no tests, so every release feels risky;
- the system works, but it's hard to refactor and scale.
If any of this sounds familiar, you don't need to rewrite the whole system. You need a developer who can join an existing Symfony codebase, understand how it works, and move it forward — safely and predictably. Most of my work is exactly that: stepping into a project that already exists and making it better without breaking what's in production.
What I can do for your project
Full-cycle Symfony development and support
I build new Symfony applications and extend existing ones — designing architecture, modeling business logic with Doctrine, exposing clean REST APIs and wiring up integrations your product depends on. I work with Messenger for background processing, handle authentication and authorization, refactor legacy code and cover critical paths with tests so each release is predictable instead of risky.
Whether you're starting a new Symfony project or need someone to take over an existing one and keep it moving, the goal is the same: working software that supports your business, not gets in its way.
Why me
I have 4+ years of commercial experience with Symfony, Laravel and Vue, and I work as a Georgian IE on a remote B2B basis — clear contracts, invoices and communication. I focus on business results, not just code, and keep the process transparent with clear estimates and predictable delivery.
I'm comfortable joining existing Symfony projects of any age — including legacy ones — and I work on a small number of projects at a time. That means you get direct communication, fast feedback and a developer who actually remembers the details of your system.

Frequently asked questions
01 Do you work with existing Symfony projects?
Yes. Most of my work is joining existing Symfony codebases — including legacy ones — reviewing the architecture and continuing development without breaking what already works.
02 Can you build a Symfony application from scratch?
Yes. I design architecture, Doctrine mappings, business logic, REST API and admin functionality, then implement and test the application.
03 Do you work with Doctrine and Messenger?
Yes. I design and optimize Doctrine mappings and queries, and build reliable Messenger consumers for background processing and async workflows.
04 Can you refactor a legacy Symfony application?
Yes. I regularly refactor legacy Symfony code — extracting services, cleaning up controllers, upgrading dependencies and adding tests to make changes safe.
05 What is your cooperation model?
Remote B2B via Georgian IE. Hourly, fixed project or monthly retainer — depending on the scope.
