Top SchoolClaudio Dekker is a seasoned software engineer with 14 years of experience, currently working at Laravel and based in Amsterdam. He’s a full-stack artisan focused on the Laravel ecosystem, combining backend architecture in PHP with Vue + Inertia frontends and Tailwind styling. Claudio has shipped production features and reliability improvements across high-profile open-source projects like the Laravel framework, Inertia.js, and Jetstream, often contributing both code and tests for caching, middleware, and adapter integrations. As a longtime independent contractor he’s solved real-world operational puzzles—from TLS and Nginx issues to Debian/Ansible automation—giving him strong sysadmin instincts alongside developer craft. Notably, he helped modernize demo and auth scaffolding (pingcrm, Jetstream) to Vue 3/Inertia and improved Laravel’s ArrayStore cache compatibility, showing attention to both UX and low-level correctness. He brings a practical, full-stack mindset that bridges open-source collaboration and production-grade platform work.
