Job description

We’re seeking a Full-Stack Engineer with proven experience in building and scaling modern web applications. You’ll be working across the stack—back-end services, front-end apps, and cloud infrastructure—helping us design reliable systems, ship new features, and keep our platforms fast and secure. This role suits someone who enjoys taking ownership, solving problems end-to-end, and working closely with product and design teams.

What You’ll Do

• Build and maintain web applications using Laravel (PHP 8.x) and Next.js or Vue 3.
• Design APIs (REST/GraphQL), handle integrations, and improve database performance.
• Set up and maintain CI/CD pipelines and cloud infrastructure on AWS (ECS, Lambda, RDS, S3, CloudFront).
• Improve reliability with testing (unit, integration, end-to-end), monitoring, and alerting.
• Collaborate with product managers and designers to deliver features that meet business and user needs.
• Review code, share knowledge, and mentor other engineers on best practices.
• Keep security, performance, and scalability in mind when making technical decisions.

What We’re Looking For

• Bachelor’s Degree in Computer Science or related disciplines.
• At least 4+ years of experience in full-stack or backend-focused engineering.
• Strong skills in Laravel, plus solid front-end experience in Next.js/React or Vue 3.
• Good knowledge of relational databases (MySQL/Postgres/Aurora), caching (Redis), and queues (SQS/SNS).
• Hands‑on experience (Terraform/CloudFormation) with AWS deployments and infrastructure‑as‑code.
• Comfortable setting up CI/CD pipelines and working with Docker.
• Strong understanding of system design and modern architecture patterns.
• Clear communication and the ability to work cross‑functionally with product and design.
• Experience leading projects or mentoring engineers.
• Familiarity with automation tools (like n8n) or event‑driven systems.
• Knowledge of monitoring and observability (SLOs, error budgets, OpenTelemetry).
