Where Symfony fits
Symfony arrives when WordPress and Laravel both stop being the right answer: strict typing required across the stack, domain logic that warrants explicit DDD modelling, integration layers between WordPress and an ERP or PIM, or a B2B commerce build on Sylius. The decision rests on enterprise constraints, not on the framework itself.
What I work on
Typical scopes: API Platform services with REST and GraphQL, Sylius extensions for B2B catalogue and pricing, Messenger handlers for async integration with SAP, Microsoft Dynamics, or Salesforce, Symfony Mercure for server-sent events, EasyAdmin or Sonata back offices, and migration paths from older PHP frameworks (Zend, CakePHP, Yii) to Symfony 7.
What I avoid
I do not pitch Symfony for marketing sites or simple CMS work; that is WordPress territory. I also do not take on Symfony staff augmentation without a defined bounded context, deployment plan, and ownership boundary.
Frequently asked questions
When is Symfony better than Laravel?
When the team or buyer requires strict typing across the codebase, explicit DDD, full Symfony Messenger or Messenger Bus for async workloads, or when Sylius or API Platform is already in play. Both frameworks ship production-grade applications; the choice is contextual.
Do you work with Sylius?
Yes. Sylius is the strongest open-source choice for B2B commerce in PHP. I handle Sylius extensions, custom checkout flows, ERP integration, and storefront work.
Can you integrate WordPress with Symfony?
Yes. A common pattern is a Symfony integration layer between WordPress (content) and an enterprise backend (ERP, CRM, PIM). The two systems talk through a Symfony service that enforces the contract.
Do you take pure Symfony work?
Yes, when the scope is well bounded and the system is one I can keep in my head. The commercial focus stays on WordPress-adjacent Symfony, but enterprise Symfony with no WordPress connection is a fit when the business case is real.
What about API Platform?
API Platform is in scope. The typical shape is REST and GraphQL APIs sitting in front of a Symfony domain layer, with serialisation, validation, and the JSON-LD output baked in. Useful when the API is the product.

Symfony developer for enterprise PHP and WordPress integration
Symfony fits projects that need strict typing, DDD boundaries, an integration layer between WordPress and ERP, CRM or PIM, or a Sylius commerce stack. I build Symfony services that can pass enterprise procurement and still be maintained by the owning team.
