About
Hi, I'm Maged Safwat.
Backend and full-stack developer with 5 years of professional experience — most of it remote, with distributed teams — building and shipping production web systems.
My core expertise is across Laravel / PHP, Node.js / Express, and Vue.js, with strong automation skills in Python and Playwright. I've published 59 Apify actors with 38,000+ total runs at a 98.2% success rate. I'm comfortable using AI-assisted tools like Cursor and Claude Code as a productivity multiplier — backed by the fundamentals to architect, debug, and own systems independently.
