Senior Full Stack Laravel + Vue Developer for European companies

I'm Ignacio Amat, Senior Full Stack Developer with 5+ years shipping production at scale (PlayStation, TikTok, Glovo, LaCaixa, Bizum). I work remote from Barcelona with scaleups and companies across Europe: EU, United Kingdom, Nordics and DACH. Native CET, C1 English, clean EU invoicing or EOR.

Stack: Laravel 11, Vue 3, Livewire, TypeScript, AI-augmented (Claude Code, MCP). 5+ years in production.

Timezone & working mode

CET (UTC+1, UTC+2 during summer time). Same timezone as Germany, France, Netherlands, Italy, Nordic countries. ±1 h with UK, Portugal, Greece. Zero friction for daily syncs and meetings.

Contract types

  • B2B Spanish sole trader invoicing in EUR (no intra-community VAT)
  • EOR — Deel, Remote, Oyster, Boundless, Velocity Global
  • Direct contract if the company has a Spanish entity
  • Full-time roles, project-based contracts or team augmentation

Why hire me from Europe?

For a European company, hiring me remote from Spain removes relocation, provides clean EU invoicing (no EOR required if you don't want one) and adds a profile with regulated-product experience (banking, personal data). CET covers Lisbon to Helsinki without timezone offset. I've worked with Nordic, UK and Central-European clients at Manifiesto and Upwork.

What I bring to an international team

01

EU invoicing from Spain

Spanish sole trader (autónomo): clean cross-EU invoicing without intra-community VAT and without EOR if direct B2B is preferred.

02

Same or close timezone

CET is the anchor for continental Europe. UK +0/-1 and Nordics align or shift by 1 h. Zero timezone friction.

03

GDPR-aware

I've worked with personal data under GDPR since 2019. Familiar with DPAs, retention, right to erasure and explicit consent.

04

C1 English + Spanish

Meetings in English, written specs, code review in English. Communication is not a bottleneck.

FAQ — Europe companies

Do you work with German / Nordic / UK companies?
Yes. C1 English, native CET, EU invoicing. For UK post-Brexit, B2B invoicing works like any third country. For Nordics and DACH, same timezone or ±1 h.
Do you accept European EOR (Employer of Record)?
Yes. Deel, Remote, Oyster, Boundless, Velocity Global. The company hires through EOR, I comply with Spanish regulation, and the EOR handles payroll and compliance.
Do you understand the European fintech market?
I worked on banking integrations at Manifiesto (LaCaixa, Bizum). Compliance, traceability and banking-grade security are requirements I understand and respect.
What's your freelance rate for EU companies?
Indicative range €350–500/day depending on scope and duration. Discounts apply for monthly retainers or roles >6 months. Final rate proposed after call.
Do you accept equity at a European startup?
Yes, when combined with a fair base and standard vesting (1-year cliff + 4 years). I evaluate stage, dilution and cap table — I don't accept equity-only.
Will you travel on-site to EU offices?
Yes, ad-hoc trips for kick-offs, team events or sprints. Direct flights from Barcelona to almost any European capital in 2-3 h.
