Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolJohn Fiala is a pragmatic full stack developer with 15 years of experience building and rescuing web applications, most recently maintaining and extending Beam, a PHP-based brand management platform. Comfortable jumping into poorly documented or legacy codebases, he specializes in PHP, Drupal, database migration, AJAX, and program architecture, and has a track record of standing up custom features for clients. He thrives in small, agile teams and consults on the side to modernize and stabilize aging systems. Known for backing up, reassessing, and iterating when stuck, he pairs steady troubleshooting instincts with a willingness to learn new languages and stacks quickly. Based in Denver, he combines hands-on implementation experience—from large Drupal migrations to bespoke Laravel and Symfony work—with a practical, client-focused approach.
