Job Overview:
We're looking for a strong Senior Full-stack PHP Software Engineer to join our team.

You'll be working in a mix of modern (object-oriented PHP, Laravel/Symfony, React) and legacy code, shipping features that matter while helping us incrementally modernize the stack.
You'll work alongside a team of skilled engineers who care about clean code, pragmatism, and shipping reliable, usable systems.
You'll have real impact on a system serving 65,000+ businesses, with the autonomy to incrementally modernize it.
The Team & Codebase

The stack:
- PHP (Laravel/Symfony, OOP)
- React components for editor UI
- MySQL/PostgreSQL, Redis, RabbitMQ

- Deployments multiple times per week
- We use PHPStan, PSR standards, and structured code reviews to maintain quality.
The environment:

Key Responsibilities:
- Week to week:
- Extend backend APIs, business logic, and database queries in PHP
- Build and enhance UI components using React and modern JS
- Ship features end-to-end: from requirements to production deployment
- Debug and fix issues in both legacy and modern code
- Write automated tests for backend and frontend flows
- Participate in code reviews and technical discussions
- Over time:
- Take ownership of specific backend services, API endpoints, or frontend modules
- Help migrate legacy PHP/jQuery code to modern full-stack patterns
- Improve performance, reliability, and scalability across the stack
- Mentor other engineers through pairing and feedback
Required Skills:
- Technical:
- 5+ years of professional experience building and maintaining web applications at scale
- Strong PHP fundamentals: OOP, MVC, Laravel/Symfony or similar frameworks
- Experience with full-stack development (PHP backend + JS frontend)
- Comfortable navigating legacy PHP codebases and modernizing them
- Experience with REST APIs, relational databases (MySQL/PostgreSQL), and caching systems (Redis, Memcached)
- Can write automated tests (PHPUnit, Jest, or similar)
- Understanding of frontend basics: HTML, CSS, JavaScript
- Familiarity with deployment pipelines, Git, and CI/CD
- Experience of using AI Agents and implementing and building AI tools and Agents
- Approach:
- You default to shipping incremental improvements over big rewrites
- You ask good questions when requirements are unclear
- You balance code quality with business needs
- You're comfortable working in codebases that aren't perfect
- You can explain technical tradeoffs to non-engineers
Nice to Haves:
- Experience building SaaS or e-commerce platforms
- Migrating legacy PHP apps to modern frameworks
- Experience with React or other modern frontend frameworks
- Familiarity with microservices, modular architectures, or API-first designs
- Cloud infrastructure experience (AWS, GCP)
What Success Looks Like
First 30 days:
- Ship at least one meaningful full-stack improvement
- Understand key backend services and frontend flows
- Comfortable navigating legacy and modern code
First 60 days:
- Independently own and ship medium-sized features across the stack
- Provide helpful code reviews to the team
- Identify and propose improvements to full-stack workflows or code
First 90 days:
- Have deep context in 1-2 areas and a roadmap for improvements you'd like to drive.
- Lead a refactor or performance/quality improvement initiative
- Measurably improve performance, reliability, or test coverage in your areas
