At Prunella Talent Oy I architect a multi-module Talent Acquisition Management Platform — building Vue.js SPAs, Laravel RESTful APIs, and optimizing PostgreSQL queries with Redis caching across 14 enterprise HR modules.

Previously at Pulsar Limited for 7 years, I delivered SaaS applications for clients in fintech, branding, and CRM — from Vue.js component systems and Laravel APIs to zero-downtime database migrations and CI/CD pipeline improvements.

I work across the full stack: Vue.js & React frontends, Laravel/PHP backends, MySQL & PostgreSQL, M-Pesa Daraja integrations, MikroTik router APIs, Shopify, and self-managed Linux VPS deployments.
