Hey, I'm
Marjon Ramos
Backend Developer from the Philippines
I build APIs, automate workflows, and make systems that don't break at 2 AM.
100% Upwork Success · 6+ Years · PHP, Python, Node.js
I'm a backend developer based in the Philippines. I've spent the last 6 years building systems for clients on Upwork — APIs, automation scripts, database architectures, WordPress plugins, and whatever else needs to work reliably.
My main stack is PHP/Laravel, Python, and Node.js. I also do WordPress development when the project calls for it.
I'm not going to tell you I "engineer competitive advantages" or that my code "thrives under pressure." I just build things that work, communicate clearly, and deliver on time. That's it.
No "pillars of business acceleration." Just the work I actually do.
RESTful APIs with clean endpoints, proper auth, rate limiting, and docs included. The kind of APIs other developers actually enjoy working with.
If you're doing it manually more than twice, I can script it. Data processing, third-party integrations, scheduled tasks.
Database design, server architecture, background jobs, queues. The invisible stuff everything depends on.
Custom plugins, theme development, WooCommerce. Not page builders — actual PHP development.
Real clients, real systems, real deadlines.
PHP developer building plugins, themes, and custom web applications for real businesses. 100% Job Success Score. Industries I've built for:
Promoted from Analyst Programmer. Banking systems development and maintenance.
Two years building and maintaining internal banking software. The kind of code where bugs cost real money.
Planning to get more but I'm working the whole damn day.
