Senior Full Stack Laravel Developer

• Experience working in large custom-developed software projects is a must.
• You should be currently working in core PHP / MySQL (TALL stack) development, a plus if it is on a customer-facing SaaS project.
• Participate actively in code reviews (as a reviewee or a reviewer) and actively solicit feedback from fellow developers.
• Our company operates remotely, so you will be able to work from home with a stable and fast Internet connection.

 Responsibilities:

• Take full accountability and responsibility for driving your own productivity with minimal support from other team members.
• Take the initiative to pick up open tasks for feature enhancements, bug fixes and implement them into the product.
• Work as an individual contributor and with the team in collaboration as required.
• Import new client data and implement new installs of our software products.
• Be comfortable with testing your own work and ensure that code delivered for review is stable and solid.

What type of person wants to work here?

• We care about making the world a better place, not just making as much money as possible. We work in the non-profit sector and care deeply about our customers.

• We are about steady measurable growth. Doing things right, not as quickly as possible.
• We’re fiercely protective of your time. No insane crunch periods with long never-ending days.
• You should care about making the world a better place.
• You should be looking for your forever home, not the next rung on the climb up the ladder.
