We’re working with an established technology company who are looking for a Senior PHP Full Stack Developer to join their growing team. This role is ideal for someone who enjoys solving complex problems, improving architecture and contributing meaningfully across both backend and frontend layers of a modern, containerised application.

You’ll take ownership of core service logic, background processing and third-party integrations, working with the latest technologies from the Laravel and TALL stack – including Livewire, Tailwind, Docker, Redis and AWS. This position offers autonomy, visibility and the opportunity to drive improvements across the entire stack.

• Lead the design and development of backend services, ensuring scalable, testable and maintainable architecture within a modern Laravel environment.
• Take ownership of service-layer logic, addressing existing gaps and implementing clean, modular solutions to support integrations and business operations.
• Collaborate with the team to evolve queue job handling, improving reliability, traceability and error management across asynchronous processes.
• Work closely with Dev Ops and QA to enhance CI/CD pipelines, ensuring automated testing and deployments align with quality standards.
• Maintain and optimise local development and Docker-based environments, including multiple queue workers and supporting services.
• Proactively identify and resolve technical debt by reviewing existing items and shaping a clear path to production-readiness.
• Contribute to system integration efforts, particularly around third-party services such as Ring Central, Twilio, AWS and internal APIs.
• Uphold code quality through peer reviews, consistent patterns and mentoring others on best practices across the full stack.
• Drive improvements in frontend tooling and workflow, collaborating on UI components built with Livewire, Tailwind
  
  CSS and Vite.
• Champion a culture of continuous improvement, staying current with Laravel ecosystem updates and contributing to strategic technical decisions.
