- Innovate & Learn: Continuously explore new technologies and brainstorm with the team to find innovative solutions.
Bonus Points If You Can:

- Help us migrate to the latest tech (PHP 8.2, Symfony 6.4, PostgreSQL 16).
Challenges You’ll Love:
- Working with complex, performance-intensive PHP code for real-time eye-tracking reports.
- Keeping our tech stack streamlined while continuously improving.
Our Technology Stack:
- Backend: PHP 8.1, Symfony 5.4, Apache, PostgreSQL, AWS services (Elastic Beanstalk, RDS, S3, CloudFront).

- Tools: Git (BitBucket), PhpStorm, NewRelic, AWS CloudWatch.
- Processes: Kanban (Trello), Slack for team communication, daily morning meetings.
How We Work:
- Agile & Collaborative: We deploy to production several times a day with a fast code review and testing process. Check out our Release Notes.
- Hybrid Setup: Split your time between our Warsaw office (Emilli Plater x Hoża Street) and remote work.
- Continuous Learning: We encourage experimenting with new ideas and continuous integration/deployment.
What You’ll Get:
- Competitive Salary: We believe in compensating you fairly for your expertise.

What We’re Looking For:
- Experience: 5+ years of commercial experience with PHP (7.x or higher) and 3+ years with a PHP OOP framework like Symfony (4.x or higher).
- Skills: Strong understanding of OOP, coding algorithms, and REST API development. Experience with efficient SQL queries, Linux server configuration (LAMP), and asynchronous task handling (workers).
- Proactive Approach: Don’t just follow orders—bring your ideas and problem-solving skills to the table. We value independent thinkers who can drive projects forward.
- English Fluency: Strong English communication skills, both for coding and client interactions.
