Talk to us about why you're still an amazing fit. In the meantime, here's what we're paying attention to: * 5+ years of software engineering experience, with a focus on backend technologies. * Significant experience with Laravel, PHP 7+, MySQL, and testing pipelines in a deployed web application used by paying customers. We are all in on Laravel; this is non-negotiable. * Hands-on with agentic coding tools (Cursor, Claude Code, Copilot or similar) in a real production codebase, not just side projects. * An eye for testable, maintainable, and intuitive code, but also... * The mentality of "Code is a means, not an end," avoids unnecessary abstraction. Your compass points toward customer and business value. * The ability to think through non-obvious usage scenarios and explore ripple effects within complex systems. * High degree of empathy both toward customers and teammates. * Exceptional communication skills - especially written. We are a remote-first, fully distributed company. Most communication happens on Slack and Notion. * Self-motivated and able to make decisions when surrounded by uncertainty. You don't require a support system to maintain momentum. * Experience with queue/job-centric backends is a plus. * Experience with building production systems where data ingestion from third-party APIs is critical to the business is a big plus. ## Description You will be diving deep into our foundational codebase, which glues together our entire product lines, to develop new features, maintain existing features, and build product workflows that help our customers grow. Your work will have a direct impact on thousands of customers' short-term rental operations. * Add your voice to product shaping discussions, ship new core platform features 01, and iterate based on customer feedback. * Work with Ben whose favourite fruit is Strawberry. * Use your software engineering chops to build magical user experiences, which are both simple for customers to use and simple for other engineers to understand and maintain. * Partner with product, sales, customer success, and other engineers to develop and ship features that solve the right problems. * Work within our "majestic" monolithic codebase, sitting on a Kubernetes-powered infrastructure-as-code stack. * Implement and use observability tooling to track and debug post-deployment. * Seek out and remedy performance/resource issues and feature bugs that have the most impact on business operations and customer experience. * Refactor core platform code to make it easier to understand, maintain, and test. As an engineering team we are all in on Laravel and Angular. Our self-defined tech stack acronym is PALM-B; PHP, Angular, Laravel, MySQL and Beanstalk. We consider ourselves AI forward, all in on Cursor . 90-95% of the code we ship to production is AI generated. It's made us a lot faster. It makes the reviewing part even more important, so you'll need to actually understand what's being written on your behalf before it gets shipped to our customers. ## Related Videos - [The Laravel Core - Demystify The Beast](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/98-the-laravel-core-demystify-the-beast) - [MySQL Protocol Features You Should Be Aware Of](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/100267-mysql-protocol-features-you-should-be-aware-of) - [".Net is too slow" was not an option](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/100176-net-is-too-slow-was-not-an-option) - [WeAreDevelopers LIVE - How DevRel Makes Tech More Human](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/2149-wearedevelopers-live-how-devrel-makes-tech-more-human) - [Shipping Faster with Less: Render on Cloud Hosting, AI Workloads, and the Future of DevOps](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/1894-shipping-faster-with-less-render-on-cloud-hosting-ai-workloads-and-the-future-of-devops) - [Branch your database like your code: How schema changes and pull requests go hand in hand](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/350-branch-your-database-like-your-code-how-schema-changes-and-pull-requests-go-hand-in-hand) ## Related Articles - [Fully Remote Software Engineer Jobs](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/447-fully-remote-software-engineer-jobs) - [Find a Developer Job: 12 Best Job Sites For Developers](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/165-find-a-developer-job-12-best-job-sites-for-developers) - [Mastering Remote Work: Tips for Developers](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/558-mastering-remote-work-tips-for-developers) - [The 7 Most Popular Backend Frameworks for Developers](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/403-the-7-most-popular-backend-frameworks-for-developers) - [Dev Digest 121 - AI goes offline](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/456-dev-digest-121-ai-goes-offline) - [Software Developer Salary in The Netherlands [2023]](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/magazine/217-software-developer-salary-in-the-netherlands-2023)
