Senior Full Stack Laravel + Vue Developer for United States companies
I'm Ignacio Amat, Senior Full Stack Developer with 5+ years shipping production at scale. I work remote from Barcelona with US startups and corporates: 4 h US-East overlap, async-first, C1 English, B2B contractor or EOR (Deel, Remote, Velocity Global). Prior experience with US clients on Upwork.
Stack: Laravel 11, Vue 3, Livewire, TypeScript, AI-augmented (Claude Code, MCP). 5+ years in production.
Timezone & working mode
CET (UTC+1) → 4 h overlap with US-East (NY/Boston/Atlanta) at 14:00–18:00 ET, equivalent to 20:00–24:00 Madrid. For US-West (SF/LA/Seattle), 1-2 h overlap at start or end of day. Async-first reduces dependence on synchronous overlap.
Contract types
- ✓ B2B contractor — Spanish sole trader invoicing LLC/Inc. in USD
- ✓ US EOR — Deel, Remote, Oyster, Velocity Global, Boundless
- ✓ 1099 contractor (via W-8BEN-E for zero withholding)
- ✓ Full-time remote roles, project contracts or team augmentation
Why hire me from the United States?
For a US company, hiring me as a B2B contractor from Spain removes relocation overhead, visa sponsorship and healthcare/payroll costs. I handle my own tax compliance (W-8BEN-E set up, zero withholding under Spain–US treaty) and deliver with the async culture I already master. My PHP/Laravel + Vue stack is standard across US SaaS.
What I bring to an international team
4 h overlap with US-East
CET (UTC+1) covers 14:00–18:00 ET comfortably. For US-West, 1-2 h overlap in ET morning / late evening Spain.
LLC-friendly B2B contractor
Spanish sole trader invoicing US LLC/Inc. in USD. W-8BEN-E set up for zero withholding under the Spain–US tax treaty.
Verifiable C1 English
5+ years of daily English meetings with US and UK teams. Clear written communication, English code review, async-first.
US EOR available
If the company prefers employment, via Deel, Remote, Oyster, Velocity Global. EOR handles payroll and compliance, I handle Spanish regulation.
