About
I'm a senior web developer with over seven years of full-stack experience, specializing in PHP, JavaScript, Laravel, and React. I focus on building efficient, scalable web applications and writing maintainable code, and I enjoy learning new technologies as projects demand them. I work closely with cross-functional teams to deliver solutions that serve both business goals and the people who use them.

Used-Vehicle Trading Platform
13.2025/09 – Present · Full-Stack Developer
A used-vehicle trading and recycling platform — a Ruby on Rails back office serving multiple Next.js frontends — covering auctions, inventory, parts, container exports, and insurance workflows. My work spans the Rails admin, the Next.js apps, and the platform's admin documentation.
- Developed the admin insurance-case module as one of its two main developers — vehicle assessment and disposal requests tracked from request through assessment, pickup, and settlement — creating its initial data model, admin screens, and notification mailers
- Implemented WebAuthn biometric login and registration alongside password-reset flows for insurance users, spanning the Rails backend and two of the Next.js frontends
- Built monthly inventory-management features — CSV and Excel report builders delivered through an asynchronous download center, overseas inventory snapshots, shared-stock exclusion, and parts-division release holds
- Created the vehicle inventory photo management module and extended demolition-report, parts-info, and container-invoice screens with new filters, columns, and outputs
- Wrote a large set of the platform's admin user manuals — inventory, invoicing, transport, and parts workflows — served through authenticated routes
- Backed feature work with RSpec request and model specs

Accounting Workflow System
12.2025/06 – 2025/08 · Full-Stack Developer
An accounting and budget-management system for a chemical-industry business, centered on multi-step approval workflows. My work focused on the workflow module — its screens, approval logic, and data tooling — along with permission handling and test design.
- Developed core workflow features — workflow detail screens with edit and delete, approval and redirect logic, email notifications, file downloads, and search by user layer
- Implemented copy-and-paste features for labor-cost details and workflow files, including the copy form design and popup flow, and reduced loading times
- Built Excel-to-JSON data extraction and fixed permission and security issues, including role- and permission-based redirects across all pages
- Hardened the module through validation and bug fixing — required-field validation, duplicate name and email handling, and approver error handling — and designed Excel-based test cases for the workflow list and search

HR Management System
11.2025/04 – 2025/06 · Full-Stack Developer
A multi-tenant HR management system — a Laravel REST API backend serving a React admin frontend, covering employee, attendance, leave, allowance, and payroll workflows. I worked on both sides, from dashboard data aggregation and salary-calculation logic to the React screens that consume the API.
- Developed pending-request dashboard cards end to end — repository queries aggregating pending allowance and exchange-date requests in Laravel, and the React card UI wired to them, including tenant-specific dashboard variants
- Fixed salary-calculation logic so allowances are included in salary reports and payslips, and salaries are not calculated for employees with no assigned shift
- Improved the performance of employee leave and late/early Excel exports by reworking the spreadsheet-generation loop and its per-row styling
- Reworked the employee allowance registration UI — moved the effective-date form into the registration form and fixed effective-date handling for one-time allowances
- Extended the plan-register screen to add multiple employees at once through an employee-list modal

Product Management System
10.2024/11 – 2025/03 · Backend Developer
A product management system whose main focus is processing product data through batch processing and scheduled jobs. My work centered on the data pipeline — developing the batch processes, optimizing the MySQL queries behind them, and validating and testing their output.
- Developed batch processes for handling product data on Laravel 11, including scheduled batches that automate recurring data-processing tasks
- Wrote and optimized MySQL queries to retrieve product data efficiently
- Processed and validated the data produced by the batch runs
- Created Excel-based test cases from the processed data and performed testing against them

09.2024/03 – 2024/10 · Full-Stack Developer

Horse Management System
08.2023/11 – 2024/02 · Full-Stack Developer
A Japanese racehorse-support platform built by a small team — fans subscribe to support (“push”) their favorite racehorses and earn points, while an owners-club side offers fractional horse ownership with race and expense reporting. My work centered on payments and the public-facing frontend.
- Developed the fan service's Stripe payment layer on Laravel Cashier as its primary author — card registration, SetupIntents and PaymentIntents, monthly support subscriptions, webhook handling, and referral point rewards
- Built the subscription UI with Stripe Elements — the horse-push modal, card management, and payment-confirmation flows
- Built much of the owners-club side's web frontend as its second-largest contributor — home, about, owner, and fan pages; horse listing and detail; fractional horse-share pages; race results and reports; SSR and SEO for guest pages
- Implemented horse-report and horse-share API endpoints and resources in its Laravel backend
