Project description:
"I run a custom-built PHP/MySQL case management system – no framework used – and need a single dedicated freelancer to keep it running smoothly on a monthly retainer (roughly 40–50 hrs/month).
What You’ll Do
Maintain & optimize existing PHP/MySQL code and database
Fix urgent bugs quickly
Implement small feature tweaks when needed
Occasionally check server logs or adjust permissions on a Linux VPS
How We’ll Work
Monthly retainer: ₹16,000 for steady ongoing maintenance, support, and small feature updates as needed each month.
We will start small with one or two paid test projects to confirm skills and working style
Light process: Weekly status notes + ad-hoc email/WhatsApp for urgent issues
Stack: Classic LAMP – PHP (procedural + a few OO parts), MySQL, jQuery, Linux VPS
Who I’m Looking For
Independent freelancer only – NO agencies, NO resellers, NO teams
Minimum 2–3 years of hands-on PHP/MySQL experience
Comfortable with Linux basics (logs, permissions)
Must personally write and deliver the code.
You may use AI-assisted coding tools (ChatGPT, Copilot, etc.) as long as you personally review, understand, and test all code before delivery.
To Apply (Read Carefully)
To show you read this job post, start your reply with the word “LAMP” – applications without this will be ignored.
Please also answer these three quick questions:
1. How many years of hands-on PHP/MySQL experience do you have?
2. Have you worked on plain PHP (no framework) projects before? (Yes/No)
3. If a PHP page suddenly starts throwing a 500 error, what’s the first thing you would check?
And include:
A short intro about yourself
1–2 examples of PHP/MySQL work (GitHub or screenshots welcome)
Your weekly availability & timezone
Looking for a straightforward, long-term collaboration with someone who takes pride in clean, reliable code." (client-provided description)
