  • Build and extend our back-end systems to support new and innovative features
  • Design elegant, scalable architectures for complex applications
  • Recommend and evaluate technologies for new functionality
  • Create reusable code libraries for multiple projects
  • Improve efficiency and performance across our systems
  • Lead and mentor a small group of back-end developers

Requirements

  • Strong PHP (OOP) skills, ideally with Laravel
  • Ability to design scalable and maintainable code architectures
  • Experience building and optimising complex applications
  • Strong understanding of REST APIs and integration best practices
  • Comfortable working with agile principles in a collaborative environment
  • Write clean, readable code with good documentation practices
  • Experience scaling systems to handle large data volumes, and/or working on mission-critical products that process high revenue or support essential processes (e.g. healthcare, banking, ecommerce) where downtime is not an option
