Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolPaul Melekhov is a seasoned PHP developer with over two decades of experience, specializing in building memory- and speed-optimized console scripts, REST/SOAP APIs, and Laravel-based microservices. He combines deep OOP and design-pattern knowledge with rigorous PSR-compliant styling, unit testing, and security-first practices, making his code both elegant and resilient under heavy data loads. Paul has strong full-stack backend expertise—MySQL/MariaDB schema design and query optimization, RabbitMQ/Redis integration, and low-level HTTP troubleshooting—paired with hands-on Linux and server ops in AWS and DigitalOcean. He has driven e-commerce automation projects that reduced fulfillment costs via intelligent vendor selection and developed private Composer packages to standardize integrations across services. Comfortable dissecting legacy systems and assembling minimal bespoke frameworks from open-source components, he prefers pragmatic, maintainable solutions over framework dogma. Based in Tbilisi, Paul brings a meticulous, test-driven approach informed by real-world cost-sensitive environments where small bugs have large business impact.
