Portrait of Amaranta Kruger

Hi, I'm
Amy Kruger
A Full-Stack Developer.

I build PHP and JavaScript web apps, connect them through APIs, and keep the servers they run on healthy.

About meAbout Me

Information About me

I'm a Full-Stack Developer based in Barcelona with 3.5+ years of professional experience building and maintaining web applications in PHP (OOP), MySQL and JavaScript, connected through REST and third-party APIs. At BlueMediaAds, an email marketing company serving the Netherlands, Belgium, Germany, Poland and Switzerland, I built a real-estate CRM integrated with HubSpot, Pipeliner, Stripe and Chargebee, managed a Laravel data-intake API, and took full ownership of production: servers on OVH and Host Europe, DNS, SSL and the email sending infrastructure.

Before tech, I spent six years as a Project Manager in audiovisual production and advertising in Buenos Aires, working with agencies like BBDO and Ogilvy. That background and my degree in Image and Sound Design give me a real eye for design and UX, and the habit of delivering on tight deadlines. Today I work with Laravel, Vue.js and AI tools every day, including AI-powered apps built on the Claude API.
