1UP.ro :: The online résumé of Adrian Salceanu - freelance web developer

My name is Adrian Salceanu - I’m an experienced web developer doing PHP server side programming and accessible, standard-compliant user interfaces using CSS and JavaScript. I'm currently living and working in Bucharest, Romania. For the last 7 years I’ve been developing for top national companies and I’ve been delivering 100+ successful projects for clients all over the world.
Although I didn't work with Adrian directly, judging by the feedback that I received from the HR department and the members of his team, I can confirm that he stood out because of his enthusiasm and his efforts as a good colleague and a trustworthy person. That's why I recommend him for working with your company!
Orlando Nicoara, General Manager, MediaPro Interactiv
Adrian was a very important part in the development process of Captaingo. He effectively implemented the website's frontend - the user interface and the server side processes. Besides the actual coding, he has been very active offering technical solutions for achieving the desired results, always presenting the appropriate means for achieving our goals. He is a true professional, commited, honest and 100% trustworthy. I strongly recommend him!
Lavi Marcu, Owner, CaptainGo
Adrian was one of the best colleagues that I have worked with. Besides his management abilities (communication skills, organized, motivated) he was a very strong character, being honest and committed to the objectives and tasks assigned to him. Willing to permanently improve his knowledge and to share from his experience, Adrian will be a great asset for any company and he will become, for sure, one of the most important members of the team that he will belong to.
Victor Costache, Owner, Cratima
I worked with Adrian at Cratima for about 8 months, but it was enough to remain good friends. Besides our beautiful collaboration, he's a very creative programmer, always with new and great ideas. As project manager I could admire his communication skills, experience and dedication. I hope we'll work together again

I am a complete web developer, being able to take a project after the design stage, to deployment. Most of the times I write code on the server side using PHP, I design databases and write the stored procedures for querying them. On the client side, I build user interfaces with (X)HTML, JavaScript and CSS, applying techniques that take into account accessibility, usability and progressive enhancement.
From time to time I develop desktop or web based applications on the .NET framework, using C# - when my clients request it or if more appropriate for the task - but my main area of expertise remains PHP. Also, my expertise and experience as team leader and technical project manager allows me to quickly and efficiently design application architecture, evaluate solutions and understand module's interactions.
Right now I'm part of the Kondiment team (working for the eKontent division), but I'm also taking web development projects on my spare time.
Besides working, I also study a lot, in order to get my Masters Degree in Informational Systems Security.
On the little time left, I read articles about web development (PHP, JavaScript, CSS, design) and programming, I learn and try new technologies and programming languages (lately I've been playing with Adobe AIR and Ruby on Rails) and create jQuery plug-ins (soon to be published on the website).

During the last 8 years I've been developing websites, and for the last 7 I've been mostly coding server side modules using PHP and MySQL. From time to time I've been building user interfaces using (X)HTML, CSS and JavaScript and rarely I've been developing for the .NET framework. Besides actively developing, for 4 years I've been also working as a technical project manager (2 years at Cratima and 2 more at Eximtur).
For the last years I have worked for MediaPro Interactiv (the internet division of one of the major media groups in Romania) as PHP Senior Developer, for Eximtur (one of the top Romanian travel agencies) as IT Project Manager and for Cratima (no. 1 Romanian software provider on Elance and one of the major players on the outsourcing Romanian market) as PHP developer and Technical Project Manager.
Some of the latest and greatest websites that I've developed are:
  • CaptainGO - one of the most famous and successful web 2.0 travel applications in Romania
  • ProMotor - a high traffic, high performance auto news website, serving more than 100.000 unique visitors each day
  • Descopera - a high traffic (most visited Romanian science website), high performance website
these websites belong to their respective owners.

I'm a strong believer in the principles of quality and simplicity. Here is my 3 steps recipe to successful project completion and client satisfaction.
  1. You just tell me "WHAT"

    I understand that building a website or a web application is an investment. You only need to tell me WHAT you want to achieve - from your business perspective. Together we will decide upon WHEN and HOW MUCH. And I will tell you HOW we will achieve it.
  2. We take care of the design

    I don't design websites (OK, I have designed this one, but it's really an exception). So you can either provide me one from your designer or I can recommend you one of the great designers I've been working with. Or if you don't want to get involved, just let me handle all this - I'll make sure you'll end up with a design you'll love.
  3. Enjoy your dream application!

    After this, I begin doing my magic. And as soon as you can say "is it deadline already?" you'll get the application you've been dreamin' of! Plus all the support you'll need. Forever!
