Job description

We are looking for a skilled and motivated PHP Developer with strong experience in the Laravel framework. You will play a key role in building and improving our applications, collaborating closely with other developers, and contributing to a high-quality engineering culture. Why work on the Startselect Platform? Startselect operates a high-traffic, highly scalable e-commerce platform servingmillions of customers worldwide. Every minute, 50+ orders flow through our systems, and that number keeps growing exponentially. From the moment a customer places an order, a complex chain of processes is triggered under the hood: payment handling, fraud checks, product delivery, integrations with external partners, and real-time updates. Ensuring that all of this runs fast, reliably, and at scale is both a responsibility and an exciting technical challenge. As a developer at Startselect, you'll work on systems where your decisions truly matter. You'll be challenged to think about performance, scalability, reliability, and continuous improvement. We actively ask ourselves: how can we make this process faster, smarter, and more resilient? Your ideas will play a key role in shaping the answers. If you enjoy solving real-world scaling problems and working on a platform where engineering has a direct impact on millions of users, you'll feel right at home at Startselect.What You Will Do

  • Develop and maintain high-quality PHP applications using Laravel.
  • Collaborate with team members to design, build, and implement new features.
  • Challenge and be challenged by fellow developers to ensure code quality and continuous improvement.
  • Communicate clearly and proactively within the development team.
  • Contribute to architectural decisions and best practices.

Requirements

  • 3+ years of professional PHP development experience, ideally in Laravel.
  • Strong knowledge of modern PHP, Laravel ecosystem, and related tooling.
  • Experience with API development, database design, and modern development workflows.
  • Someone who communicates clearly, enjoys teamwork, and isn't afraid to challenge ideas constructively.
  • A proactive mindset and desire to keep learning and improving.

Benefits & conditions

  • Competitive salary and benefits package, including 25 days of holiday, pension scheme, commuting allowances, and more.
  • Flexible working hours, with a hybrid work setup.
  • Free healthy (warm) lunches.
  • A collaborative, friendly, supportive and ambitious team that values quality and innovation.
  • Opportunities for professional growth and learning.
  • Budget for noise-cancelling headphones, travel to and from the office, working-from-home and self-learning
  • Unlimited access to mental health support by certified psychologists via OpenUp
  • Free Dutch classes to help out with daily life in the Netherlands
