We are looking for candidates who are eager to work on a live application with real users, and who want to contribute to both the technical and business requirements. Ideal candidates will be proactive in innovating solutions for technical challenges and driving the evolution of our platform.

The Ideal Candidate Will:

• Have strong knowledge of the PHP language and have experience with frameworks like Laravel, Symfony, or similar.

Architecture Experience and Work for this Role:

In addition to PHP development and backend responsibilities, the Senior Developer will also contribute significantly to the system architecture and design.

This includes:

• System Design & Architecture: You will be responsible for leading the design and implementation of the overall system architecture. This includes designing scalable, efficient, and maintainable systems that can handle a large number of users and complex workflows. You will work on designing microservices, API integrations, and data flows to ensure optimal system performance.
• Cloud Infrastructure and Deployment: Experience with AWS or similar cloud platforms is critical. You'll play a key role in architecting
  - based services, setting up scalable databases, configuring load balancing, optimizing server costs, and ensuring smooth application deployment and scaling.
• High-Availability and Reliability: You'll design systems to ensure high availability, fault tolerance, and redundancy. This includes working with distributed architectures, load balancing, and managing distributed databases to ensure the application can handle traffic spikes and recover from failures seamlessly.
• Performance Optimization: As part of your architectural role, you will actively engage in performance analysis, identifying bottlenecks, and optimizing system performance. You'll be responsible for tuning database queries, refactoring code for scalability, and implementing caching solutions.
• API Design & Integration: You will provide input on the design of RESTful APIs to integrate with external systems and services. This includes ensuring API performance, security, and flexibility, as well as adhering to best practices in API versioning, documentation, and testing.
• Data Architecture & Modeling: You will contribute to decisions about database structure, data storage, and schema design. This includes optimizing complex queries, implementing indexing strategies, and managing data across relational databases and No

• Security Architecture: You will ensure that security considerations are embedded throughout the system design and development. This includes implementing encryption strategies, securing APIs, handling sensitive data securely, and ensuring compliance with security best practices.
• Collaboration and Mentorship: As a senior team member, you will collaborate closely with other developers, project managers, and business teams to refine requirements, establish priorities, and ensure alignment between technical goals and business objectives. Additionally, you will mentor junior developers on best practices, code quality, and design patterns.
