Looking for a full stack PHP (Laravel) developer colleague to help us make our service better
EDIT: Application period ended. At Shipit, we strive to make package sending the easiest thing in the world every day. Thousands of parties use our service daily, and hundreds of thousands of shipments (packages, letters, pallets) are sent through us annually. We serve both businesses and individuals. You can choose your work location now and always - we have people working from Åland to Kuhmo.
What kind of team? What kind of people?
Our product development team is moderately sized, autonomous, and genuinely agile. We don't bow to managers, and our goal is that people enjoy working here. Everyone is responsible for their own work, but the biggest decisions are made together with the team. We trust, help, support, respect, and learn together. We're quite down-to-earth people and avoid unnecessary startup and agency hype.
Job description:
You will be an important part of our product development and participate in many aspects of developing our service according to your expertise – from service architecture planning to developing Shipit's API and frontend. Ideally, you have previous experience with various and versatile development tasks.
However, we understand better than well that all-knowing experts exist only in fairy tales. In the end, our recruitment decision will be based on how your expertise complements our current skills, what you want to learn, what motivates you, and how you could fit into our team.
Technologies:
We use the TALL stack (Tailwind CSS, Alpine.js, Laravel, Livewire) for development and Vue.js for components requiring more substantial JavaScript. For the backend, we're committed to the Laravel ecosystem, but the frontend stack may evolve in the future. However, we intentionally try to avoid SPA (single page application) architecture as long as possible, so full-stack with us means more PHP, HTML, and CSS and less JavaScript.
