Hi, I’m Gabriel Lucic – a Software Developer based in Munich, Germany. I’ve spent the past 7+ years building and maintaining backend systems, mostly using PHP and Laravel, with a focus on clean code, scalability, and long-term maintainability.
I enjoy working in cross-functional Agile teams and have experience with tools like PostgreSQL, Docker, Kubernetes, and also some Java, Spring Boot, and AngularJS along the way.
I’m fluent in English, German, and Croatian, and always looking to grow as a developer. My long-term goal is to take on more architectural responsibilities and help shape solid, future-proof systems.
My comprehensive services are custom-tailored to meet your unique business goals and objectives.
Robust APIs with PHP, Laravel, Spring Boot, PostgreSQL and more...
Modern frontend with AngularJS, Next.js & Tailwind.
Experience designing scalable systems.
Strong communication in agile teams.

Took ownership of a Symfony-based project while also maintaining a live Laravel-based service. Balanced development of new features with critical refactoring and stability improvements. Worked daily with PHP (Symfony, Laravel) in containerized environments (Docker, Kubernetes), and collaborated closely with product and QA teams. This role deepened my understanding of service architecture and production-ready development.

Was a part of two projects focused on modernizing legacy systems.

Integrated with enterprise partners like Indeed and Stepstone through custom APIs. Worked on a long-term Laravel project to replace a critical part of a large monolithic system, contributing major customer-facing features and ensuring production readiness.
