I will build a secure professional symfony rest API with jwt auth


À propos de ce service
Looking for a reliable Symfony developer to build, improve or deploy your backend?
I develop secure, maintainable Symfony APIs. 10+ years building backend systems for enterprise clients in telecom, media and banking.
Stack: Symfony 6/7, PHP 8, JWT, Doctrine ORM, MariaDB, MySQL, PostgreSQL, Docker, PHPUnit, Swagger/OpenAPI.
Case studies:
- Streaming platform: replaced a legacy search engine with a Symfony + Elasticsearch microservice.
- Ticketing platform: integrated Venmo via Braintree and led a PHP 7.1 7.4 upgrade with zero downtime.
- Symfony 7 API with JWT, Docker and Nginx deployed on a Hetzner VPS serving multiple Bible versions.
What I can do for you:
- Symfony backend and REST API development
- JWT authentication and authorization
- Doctrine ORM and database design
- PHPUnit unit and functional tests
- Swagger/OpenAPI documentation
- Docker and CI/CD
- Third-party API integrations
- Bug fixing, refactoring and performance tuning
- Deploy to Hetzner, DigitalOcean, AWS or dedicated servers
Clean, MVC or hexagonal architecture I adapt to your existing codebase.
Before ordering, send me your requirements and deployment needs.

FAQ
Can you work on an existing Symfony project?
Yes. I can fix bugs, add new features, refactor code, improve performance, and update existing Symfony applications.
Can you build a Symfony REST API from scratch?
Yes. I can design and develop a Symfony REST API with database integration, validation, error handling, authentication, and documentation.
Do you implement JWT authentication?
Yes. I can implement JWT login, registration, protected routes, token handling, roles, and authorization rules.
Which databases do you support?
I work with PostgreSQL, MySQL, and MariaDB using Doctrine ORM.
Can you write PHPUnit tests?
Yes. I can create unit, integration, and functional tests for your Symfony application. The exact test coverage depends on the selected package and project scope.
Do you provide Swagger or OpenAPI documentation?
Yes. I can document your API endpoints, parameters, request bodies, authentication requirements, and responses using Swagger/OpenAPI.
Can you Dockerize my Symfony application?
Yes. I can create a Dockerized development environment for Symfony, PHP, databases, and other required services.
Can you deploy my application?
Yes. I can deploy Symfony applications to Hetzner, DigitalOcean, AWS, or dedicated servers, depending on the server configuration and project requirements.
Do you include frontend development?
Yes, I do, but this Gig is primarily focused on backend development and APIs. Frontend development can be discussed separately if required.
Do you have experience optimizing APIs for high traffic?
Yes. I've optimized high-traffic APIs by profiling slow endpoints, adding Redis and HTTP caching, tuning Doctrine queries and indexes, reducing N+1 queries, and adding pagination and rate limiting. I optimize APIs to stay fast under load, not just to pass tests.
