PHP Developer (Mid-Senior)

• Work confidently across our AWS estate - EC2, RDS, S3, CloudFront - with NGINX on Ubuntu.
• Contribute to deployments, environments and CI/CD pipelines.
• Help monitor, debug and resolve production issues calmly and quickly.
• Care about security, backups and the boring things that stop bad days happening.

Data & Performance

• Design and maintain database schemas across MySQL and PostgreSQL.
• Diagnose and fix slow queries, N+1 problems and caching gaps.
• Make performance a habit, not an afterthought.

Collaboration & Quality

• Review code and be reviewed - constructively, without ego.
• Work closely with frontend developers building in Vue, Vite and Tailwind.
• Communicate clearly with non-technical colleagues and, where needed, clients.
• Share what you learn and raise the standard of the team around you.

You’re a strong engineer who cares about the craft but stays pragmatic. You understand that great platforms aren’t about clever code, they’re about reliability, performance and outcomes.

You’ll need to bring:

• 4+ years of commercial PHP experience with strong, modern Laravel.
• Solid SQL fluency across MySQL and PostgreSQL - schema design, indexing, query optimisation.
• Genuine comfort working in AWS environments.
• Experience with Git-based workflows, code review and automated testing.
• Excellent communication - you can explain a technical decision to a non-technical person without patronising them.

It would be helpful if you also have:

• Statamic experience, or strong experience with another modern CMS and the appetite to learn it fast.
• Frontend awareness - Vue, Vite, Tailwind.
• Experience with search platforms like Algolia.
• Experience with server provisioning tools like Ploi or Forge.
• Agency experience - you’re comfortable with pace, multiple projects and shifting priorities.

And importantly you bring energy, curiosity, and a can-do attitude that makes those around you better.

• Develop APIs and third-party integrations - payment gateways, CRMs, search, email and marketing tooling.
• Write clean, tested, reviewable code and take pride in leaving things better than you found them.
• Take features from ticket to production, including the awkward middle bit nobody else wants., * A fast-paced, high-performance environment that challenges and rewards excellence.
• Access to cutting-edge tools and continuous professional development.
• The opportunity to work with major brands driving transformational growth.
• A culture that values collaboration, ambition, and having fun while achieving exceptional results.
• 24 days holidays (plus your Birthday off)
• Remote & flexible working
• Health Insurance

Pay: £37,500.00-£50,000.00 per year

As a PHP Developer at Revolution, you’ll build and run the platforms behind some of the biggest brands we work with. This isn’t template-shop work. It’s proper platform engineering: Laravel applications and Statamic builds running on real AWS infrastructure, serving real traffic, with real consequences when things go wrong.

You’ll own features end to end - from schema design through to deployment - and you’ll work directly alongside our design, frontend and marketing teams to ship work that performs commercially, not just technically.

We’re looking for someone mid-senior to senior. You’ve shipped enough to have opinions, and you’re still curious enough to change them.
