While I've worked with Symfony for a long time, I also worked with vanilla PHP. That experience allows me to easily get familiar with any framework and fix bugs or add new features without having to wait for the framework maintainers.

Besides starting my own project from scratch, I've worked on upgrading legacy applications (symfony 1.x, wordpress, drupal) to the latest version of the framework.
I've got experience working with the base framework, but I also dealt directly with Symfony Components, getting familiar with their code and extending them to suit our needs.

Most of my experience in this technology comes from working with a startup that initially had less than 10 employees and helped them expand.
There I was in charge of managing the AWS infrastructure.
I helped them move from single dedicated server to a multi-az setup, including RDS and several replicas. I also configured a VPC only accesible with OpenVPN and two-factor authentication.

Along with two partners we started a software development and IT consulting company.
As I worked on this while also working full-time for a Boston, MA company we dealth mostly with small projects.
We employed 3rd party contractors to help with development when we didn't have the time.
Being a very small company meant that I had to deal with the projects starting from the initial contact with the client to the delivery of the finished products. So I've got some experience with project management and leading small teams.
