Senior Laravel engineer who ships production-grade AI features.
I'm Martijn. For Dutch agencies and product teams I build and lead Laravel platforms — and the production AI/RAG features on top of them. I own the whole delivery: architecture, tests, CI/CD and a clean handover. You get software that works in production, not just on my machine.
Hiring senior backend help shouldn't be a gamble.
You've been here: a developer who writes code that works today and breaks next month. No tests, no docs, a deploy process only they understand. When they leave, the knowledge leaves too. I work the opposite way — every engagement is scoped up front, built with automated tests, deployed through a real pipeline, and handed over so your team can run it without me.
Production systems, not demos
Clear scope, clear price
Hi, I'm Martijn.
I've spent nearly two decades building software — and, just as importantly, making sure it keeps working after launch. My heart is in Laravel: it's the stack I'm fastest, sharpest and happiest in, so it's what I lead with, with the rest of the delivery craft included because I can't help myself.
A free, no-pressure 20-minute call.
Tell me what you're building or what's stuck, and I'll be straight about whether I'm the right person.
