PHP Developer

The Role

A fantastic opportunity has arisen for a skilled PHP Developer to join one of our three software development teams. This role will see you help the team build next generation product control panels, augment existing panels, build purchase flows, build provisioning systems (using a range of languages and technologies), and maintain business systems.

You’ll be working in a team of highly skilled developers who produce full-stack systems - from front-end to low-level service provisioning. We use different middleware technologies, including PHP Laravel APIs and micro-service architectures, so skills in this area are essential. We use modern CI/CD containerisation pipelines with Git, Kubernetes and OpenShift; skills in these technologies are highly desirable. We’re moving towards Single Page Applications (VueJS/JAM stacks) using latest technology stacks and methodologies, but maintenance is also required on existing PHP systems.

This is an exciting opportunity to use your exceptional development skills to deliver exciting products and projects in a friendly and supportive working environment. The work is demanding but rewarding. We’re looking for a skilled developer who can demonstrate very strong knowledge and coding skills and can contribute from the start, and who will become part of our team for many years.
