We are looking for a full-stack Software Engineer who can contribute across the product - building new features, improving existing systems, and helping the team work more efficiently. This is a hands-on role for someone who thrives in a dynamic environment and takes ownership of getting things done.
You will work across our stack (PHP 8.2 / Laravel 10), Node.JS, Golang, and React frontend (React 18 + TypeScript + Vite), and AWS infrastructure, contributing directly to production code while helping improve workflows, documentation, and processes. We hire for attitude and ownership over perfect technical mastery.
Requirements
5+ years as Software Developer with proven project track record.
Strong knowledge of PHP 8, Laravel 9+, MySQL, React.js 18.2 (or any other frontend framework).
Strong knowledge of Golang, Gin - or any other Golang Framework
Experience with HTML/CSS/JS, RESTful APIs, Git.
Docker/Kubernetes, AWS (or similar cloud).
Solid database design and optimization skills.
Strong problem-solving, communication, and ability to work independently.
Experience with PHPUnit or similar testing frameworks.
Good understanding of web app security.
Fluency in English (written & spoken).
Strong ownership mentality - you unblock yourself and move work forward
A bias toward shipping and learning over waiting for perfect answers
Experience writing production code in Laravel and React
Comfort moving across the stack rather than staying siloed
Proactive, collaborative, and clear communicator
Willingness to document your work and improve processes
Nice to have:
WebRTC, FFMPEG, HLS, SRT, RTMP, DRM.
Node.js/Express, GitHub Actions.
NoSQL (MongoDB, Redis).
Experience in a multi-service/microservices-style architecture
Familiarity with AWS services such as ECS/ECR, RDS, S3, CloudFront, Redis, Amazon MQ, and Lambda
Experience with Infrastructure as Code (especially CloudFormation-style templates and environment parameterization)
Experience improving GitHub Actions workflows and CI/CD pipelines
Familiarity with automated testing and quality tooling (Pest/PHPUnit, Vitest, Playwright, ESLint/Prettier, Pint, Psalm)
Personal qualities:
Self-driven, motivated, reliable in a fast-paced environment.
Passionate about something - including a hobby outside of work (unless coding is also your hobby - we LOVE that)
Build and optimize APIs, ensure performance, scalability, and security.
Implement front-end features with React.js (18.2).
Work with CI/CD pipelines, automated testing, and code reviews.
Collaborate with cross-functional teams, mentor juniors.
Manage integrations between systems and cloud services (AWS).
Maintain documentation, database schemas, and ensure security best practices.
What success looks like:
Features in Laravel and React are delivered reliably and efficiently
The codebase and engineering workflows improve over time thanks to your contributions
The team becomes more autonomous and productive
Stakeholders trust the team's delivery and communication
