Job description

Company Overview

At NewRich Network, we empower digital entrepreneurs to turn their dreams into reality. Our mission is simple yet bold: to help people create a balanced, fulfilling lifestyle - while building wealth and independence along the way. We’re a fast-growing team driven by one vision: a world where anyone can work remotely, chase their passion, and live life on their own terms. Our platform combines SaaS tools, e-learning programs, and a supportive social network - a one-stop ecosystem designed for creators, entrepreneurs, and dreamers who want more than just a career.

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 Laravel services (PHP 8.2 / Laravel 10), 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. We believe fulfilling work and a healthy work‑life balance is key to living a NewRich Lifestyle. If you’re motivated, ambitious, and ready to grow with us, we want to hear from you!

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).
• 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).

Responsibilities

• Develop and maintain server-side applications (PHP 8, Laravel 10, MySQL).
• 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.

Benefits

• Paid Adventure Time - Take an all-expenses-paid remote working trip for 3 weeks to a destination of your choice with one of our remote work-trip partners. On top of that, you’ll have "Me-Days" - flexible personal days you can take whenever you need a reset.
• Fast Growth, Big Upside - We’re a small, ambitious team. That means more ownership, faster learning, and a real chance to shape the future of our company (and your career).
• Unlimited Learning - You’ll get full access to every course and program on our NewRich platform. We invest in your growth because your growth fuels ours.
• Home Office Stipend - Your setup matters. We’ll support you with a budget to create your ideal workspace and provide you with a new MacBook to power your productivity.
• Annual Retreat - Work remote, but meet the team IRL. Every year we gather in amazing locations - next stop: Colombia.
