Job Description

Before you apply, let us talk about some of the things that are important to us:

• PHP – We love PHP. We know it has a bad reputation due to a long history of ugliness – and trust us when we say we have experienced it first-hand. However, it has matured greatly over the past few years and it has allowed us to rapidly prototype, develop, and deploy some amazing applications. We love Laravel and composer, and we run the latest PHP in production.

• Remote – Let’s dispel the myth that remote developers can kick their feet back and play video games. If you’ve spent any time working remotely, you know the challenges and determination it takes to make it work. We work hard from 8 to 5 and want a developer that will do the same without needless distractions.

• Git – We do everything in git and have some great deployment workflows built around it.

• Security – We adhere to the OWASP Top 10 standard and offer regular training on how to secure your code against SQL injection, XSS, and CSRF.

Responsibilities will include:

• Maintain existing applications by finding and fixing bugs that occur

• Rapidly build and evolve major features and applications in collaboration with product management

• Research and experiment with key technologies, architectures, and standards

• Attend daily stand-up meetings, collaborate with peers, prioritize features, and work with a sense of urgency to deliver value to customers

• Assist in code reviews and pull request reviews conducted at various points in the software life cycle

Preferred qualifications

• Strong skills with modern PHP, Laravel framework, Vue JS, and Tailwind CSS

• Experience designing and integrating RESTful APIs

• Experience working with an agile development process

• Strong communication skills, both written and verbal

• Strong analytical and critical thinking skills

• Independent, proactive, and hard-working

• ​Have a growth mindset with the ability to work independently in a fast-paced environment and handle multiple tasks and projects simultaneously.

• Demonstrate an ability to set objectives and goals and organize work appropriately to meet and exceed goals. 

• Comfortable collaborating and communicating with people at varying levels, junior to executive, both internally and externally

• Able to receive feedback well and incorporate it into future work
