Building high-performance web applications powered by Laravel & AI.

I help startups, product teams and agencies turn complex ideas into modern, scalable digital products — on my own projects, or as extra senior capacity inside a team that already has one.

Argenis — full-stack developer

Hi, I'm Argenis.

I'm a full-stack developer based in Portugal, working with teams worldwide. For the last 4+ years I've shipped production software — from Laravel SaaS and booking platforms to AI automation and corporate training.

I work as a real partner: I push back on bad ideas, care about the details that compound, and leave you with software your team can keep building on. That holds whether the project is mine end to end or I'm working inside a team you already have.

Questions, answered.

What kind of projects do you take on?

Full-stack web applications, SaaS platforms, SEO-first marketing sites, and AI automation. I focus on modern web platforms — no native mobile or WordPress.

How do you work with clients?

Either project-based or as a long-term contractor embedded in your team. That second option is how most work with agencies and product teams starts: you have already won the project and need the engineering capacity to deliver it. Every engagement starts with a free discovery call to scope the work and a fixed plan before we build.

Do you work white-label through agencies?

Yes, and the client stays yours. I work under your name and your process, I don't need to be in client meetings, and I'll sign a non-solicitation agreement as part of the engagement. I'm not trying to build a client base out of your accounts — I would rather do the work and leave the relationship where it is.

What is your tech stack?

Laravel on the backend; Inertia with Vue or React on the frontend, Astro for content-heavy sites; PostgreSQL, Redis, Docker and AWS for data and infra; plus OpenAI and LLM APIs for AI features.

Do you build AI automation into Laravel apps?

Yes — AI features and automation (chatbots, workflow automation, LLM integrations) built directly into Laravel using queues, Horizon and the OpenAI/Anthropic APIs. Production features, not bolted-on scripts.

Can you deploy and manage Laravel apps on AWS?

Yes — hands-on with EC2, S3, RDS and Route 53 for full control at scale, plus CI/CD with GitHub Actions. I set up the same infrastructure the apps I build actually run on.

Do you build with Laravel and Inertia or Vue?

Yes — Inertia + Vue (or React) is my default for full-stack Laravel apps: one codebase, no separate API layer, a modern frontend without the extra moving parts.

How fast do you respond?

Typically within 24 hours. I keep communication tight and async-friendly across time zones.

Are you available right now?

Yes — I am open to new work from Portugal / Remote. Book a call and we will find a slot that works.
