Employment Opportunity : Full Stack Developer

Hello!

We are looking for a Full Stack PHP Developer to work on multiple projects for our clients. We are a digital agency located in Toronto Canada and work with small and large enterprise organizations across many sectors. We are looking for inspired and experienced people to help complement an existing technical team to contribute to our projects. Remote is okay but Canada / USA is preferred.

Description

We’re looking for a full stack developer with 3+ years of full stack web development experience, ideally with Laravel. Experience working remotely within a team environment; not only with other developers, but designers and project managers, as well. Places equal importance on both form and function when writing code. Detail-oriented with a solid understanding of quality UX. Can communicate effectively to find optimal solutions to problems.

Skills and Requirements

  • At least 3 years experience or an impressive body of work that can be previewed (i.e. github profile)
  • Experience with Laravel & Vue.js
  • Strong Javascript, PHP, HTML, CSS and skills
  • Familiarity with MySQL and database design basics
  • Experience using version control software in a team environment

Nice to haves

  • Modern front end development tooling (Webpack, NPM/Yarn, node.js)
  • Experience with Test Driven Development
  • WordPress, custom theme and plugin development
  • Experience shipping Progressive Web Applications
  • ES6 and JS frameworks like Vue.js or React
  • Open Source projects or contributions

To apply, please submit your resume / cover letter (PDF), portfolio, and github or code sample to jobs@shift8web.com. Thanks in advance! However only those selected for an interview will be contacted.

At Shift8, we cater to all sorts of businesses in and around Toronto from small, medium, large and enterprise projects. We are comfortable adapting to your existing processes and try our best to compliment communication and collaboration to the point where every step of the way is as efficient as possible.

Our projects are typically broken into 5 or 6 key “milestones” which focus heavily on the design collaboration in the early stages. We mock-up any interactive or unique page within your new website so that you get a clear picture of exactly how your design vision will be translated into a functional website.

Using tools like Basecamp and Redpen, we try to make the process simple yet fun and effective. We will revise your vision as many times as necessary until you are 100% happy, before moving to the functional, content integration and development phases of the project.

For the projects that are more development heavy, we make sure a considerable amount of effort is spent in the preliminary stages of project planning. We strongly believe that full transparency with a project development plan ensures that expectations are met on both sides between us and the client. We want to ensure that the project is broken into intelligent phases with accurate budgetary and timeline breakdowns.

Approved design mock-ups get translated into a browse-ready project site where we revise again and again until you are satisfied. Client satisfaction is our lifeblood and main motivation. We aren’t happy until you are.
