Summary
Steven Koch is a seasoned web developer with 14 years of experience designing and building scalable, standards-driven web applications across PHP, Node.js, Ruby and Perl stacks. He has a strong architectural focus—applying SOLID principles, design patterns and cache-layer strategies—to deliver high-availability systems for companies like OLX, TheFork and Worten. Equally comfortable in front-end work with React/RxJS and web-components as in backend API design, databases and DevOps, he’s shipped real-time, high-concurrency projects and progressive web apps on AWS and Heroku. Based in Lisbon, he brings deep legacy and modern-stack experience (from Catalyst/Perl to microservices) and a pragmatic habit of creating small, testable frameworks or components when existing tools don’t fit.
