PHP Backend Developer Application – Niraj Kukar (Ahmedabad, 2.5 Years Exp)

Hi, I’m Niraj Kukar, a backend-focused PHP/Laravel developer based in Ahmedabad. I know the role asks for 5+ years, but I’m writing because my 2.5 years have been dense, hands-on, and directly relevant to the work you’re building. I’ve delivered international client projects, set up CI/CD pipelines, and built scalable APIs—and I’m confident I can contribute from day one. Here’s how I fit the role: - Built and maintained multiple Laravel applications with RESTful APIs, Eloquent ORM, and MySQL, handling complex data flows and performance optimization. - Deployed and managed applications on DigitalOcean and VPS, with working knowledge of cloud/server environments—ready to ramp up on AWS and Laravel Vapor quickly. - Set up automated testing with Cypress and CI/CD pipelines using GitHub Actions, ensuring reliable, repeatable deployments. - Currently handling a UK-based B2B tour project end-to-end, managing client requirements, backend workflows, and real-time data handling. I’m comfortable working hybrid from Ahmedabad and excited about building scalable, high-performance backend systems. My resume is attached—would love to chat about how I can add value to your team. Best, Niraj Kukar +91 9426386630 kukarnniraj9@gmail.com bit.ly/Niraj_kukar
