  • Write automated tests, review pull requests, and advocate for sustainable architecture and clean code
  • Collaborate daily with product, QA, and DevOps teams to deliver high-impact improvements in short sprints
  • Troubleshoot complex technical issues and balance long-term code health with pragmatic product delivery

Qualifications

  • 6+ years of backend development experience with senior-level ownership
  • PHP 8.x mastery using Laravel, Symfony, or modern enterprise frameworks
  • Relational database & caching skills (MySQL, PostgreSQL, Redis)
  • API & microservice design with OpenAPI/Swagger standards
  • Asynchronous processing experience using SNS/SQS
  • Containerization & CI/CD workflow knowledge (Docker, Git, GitLab CI)
  • Fluent English with transparent, solution-oriented communication

 

Nice To Have:
