Senior PHP-Entwickler at Neofonie GmbH
Berlin, Germany
Summary
👤
Senior🎓
Top SchoolSven Garbe is a senior PHP developer based in Berlin with 13 years of hands-on experience optimizing mySQL-backed systems and building PHP/Symfony and Shopware applications. He combines backend craftsmanship with solid front-end skills (ES6, CSS/LESS/Sass) and practical Docker-based deployment know-how, often acting as software architect and DevOps/sysadmin in past roles. His background spans ERP and e-commerce platforms as well as a decade in the trade-fair business, giving him a keen sense for complex integrations and operational constraints. Known for a pedantic eye on database performance, he turns slow queries into robust, scalable features rather than quick patches. Since 2020 he contributes senior engineering leadership at Neofonie, and his long career—from Delphi/web beginnings to modern PHP ecosystems—reflects a pragmatic problem-solver mindset: there are no problems, only challenges.
