Top SchoolJila Azar is a Senior Software Engineer based in Australia with 17 years of professional experience and over seven years focused on producing robust PHP and JavaScript applications for high-volume consumer platforms. She has progressed from building e-commerce and reservation systems to architecting reusable object‑oriented libraries, migration tooling and performance optimisations for media and marketplace sites. Her recent work at Gumtree Group and CarsGuide complements a strong background in backend systems, async job queues, caching strategies and automation (Ansible, Docker, Composer). She routinely integrates analytics and marketing tools (Google Tag Manager, Chartbeat, Mailchimp) and has led data migrations and monitoring initiatives that reduced operational risk. Colleagues describe her as a collaborative engineer who mentors peers on design patterns and best practices, blending hands‑on implementation with pragmatic architecture. An ability to retrofit modern tooling onto legacy stacks (ZF1, Yii, Symfony2) makes her effective at accelerating product delivery in complex codebases.
