About the company

We are Adapt. We are enabling businesses and their people to confidently embrace the future of work. We do this by creating clearer processes, aligning people around those ways of working and creating bespoke software (leveraging smart automation & AI) to maximise productivity. No two projects or clients are the same, and we don’t intend for that to change any time soon. If you love the ever-changing landscape of technology and the agency world as much as we do, then come join the team, so that we can adapt together.

About the role

Following recent new business wins with both new & existing client relationships, we’re looking for a PHP-focused Mid-Weight Developer to join us. Your time will primarily be spent supporting efforts with another developer across various PHP-related projects (including Laravel and raw custom PHP). There will also be 3rd Party API integrations you’ll be working with. If you like the thrill & variety of juggling multiple projects and priorities, this is the role for you!

About you

We’re seeking a talented techie to join our growing remote team of passionate programmers. With a growing demand for our services, we’re looking for someone who must:

• Be UK based & speak fluent English
• Be fluent in semantic HTML
• Be fluent in & up to date with the latest practices for working with CSS
• Be fluent in modern PHP, especially Laravel
• Have experience working with SQL-based databases
• Be a people person - a confident & clear communicator and happy working directly with clients (after appropriate introductions have been made, of course!)
• Consider themselves able to demonstrate full-stack development ability
• Have experience working with, organising & maintaining Git repos
• Be excited by innovation and creating work that wows. We’re not all about how clever our systems are; we’re fuelled by creating beautiful experiences for our clients and end users.
• Have confidence using the CLI
• Be self-motivated & able to motivate others
• Be open-minded & willing to accept feedback from peers & colleagues

It would be nice to:

• Have experience writing DRY, well-structured, clean & elegant code
• Have some understanding of DevOps, especially in the context of deployment models & Docker
• Have experience working with JSON & APIs (data transmission/manipulation)
• Have experience with Laravel Livewire
• Have experience with FilamentPHP
• Have experience with AlpineJS (particularly as this is increasingly popular in the Laravel ecosystem)
• Have a love for TailwindCSS
• Have experience following TDD practices - especially working with PestPHP (PHP) or Jest (JS)
• Have confidence when making important decisions, which could be crucial in steering projects to success
• Have experience working with large codebases which need greater than usual care & attention as it relates to ongoing maintenance

Perks & other benefits:

• Working with a modern tech stack
• An openness towards how & when you do your work
• Support & an active interest in helping you to up-skill and grow “on the job”
• Opportunity to progress into a management/leadership role
• Budget available for investing in a local co-working space, if working specifically from home isn’t your thing, but commuting to an office isn’t either!
• Tech & equipment provided (we’re Mac users, so likely a MacBook Pro & accessories)
• Remote working (with quarterly in-person gatherings in London)
• Flexibility with working hours
• 20 days paid holiday in addition to bank holidays
• Time off between Christmas and New Year without using holiday allowance
• Birthdays off - nobody wants to work on their birthday!

Our normal working hours are 9am - 5:30pm Monday - Friday but being a remote company, we’re willing to be flexible with working hours as needs arise.

The salary will be between £30,000 & £36,500 and will depend on experience.

Next key milestones in the process:

• Accepting applications until 23rd May
• Reviewing applications & arranging interviews by 6th June
• Aiming to make an offer by 13th June
