We're looking for someone with solid Laravel (PHP) experience to join our team.
What we're looking for...
ColorElephant — a digital studio with 30+ people spread across the globe — is looking to hire a PHP / Laravel Developer. We want someone who will write quality code and deliver results within reasonable timelines. Specifically, from this role, we expect someone capable of taking a technical brief, make architecture recommendations and follow high quality standards while coding the backend of applications in PHP, using the Laravel framework.
You'll work alongside other (remote) PHP Developers, sometimes in the same projects, so a clear ability to work in teams is much desired. You'll build the backend services, most of the times through REST APIs, contribute to technical considerations and decisions and deliver exciting new products to the world.
Responsibilities
- Produce “clean” and well-structured code, with detailed specifications. This means that your code is commented, well structure, readable and comes with documentation (e.g. for APIs);
- Work on creating basic and advanced database architectures with Postgres and MySQL;
- Collaborate with others on translating needs into a database architecture;
- Create code that has great test coverage to avoid unnecessary issues in the future;
- Collaborate with the team in all phases of the development lifecycle, including the strategy and the architecture of the systems you will eventually build;
- Troubleshoot, test and maintain the core product software and databases to ensure strong optimization and functionality;
- Stay informed about industry best practices;
- Troubleshoot and debug applications.
- On-time delivery of projects;
- Follow Agile and SCRUM methodologies (where appropriate) to deliver projects;
- Communicate with others, including project managers, on struggles and progress of each of the projects;
