Full Stack PHP Engineer

Flexible with remote working (usually 1 - 2 days a month in Oxford)

We’re hiring a Fullstack PHP Developer to join a growing, product-focused team working on a well-established platform in a regulated space. If you enjoy building across the stack and care about clean, pragmatic engineering, this could be a strong fit.

The Opportunity

You’ll work on a live, high-traffic platform with a mix of greenfield development and ongoing improvements. Whether you lean backend or enjoy crafting polished frontend experiences, you’ll be involved end-to-end.

What You’ll Do

• Build features across backend (Laravel) and frontend
• Write clean, well-tested code (PHPUnit / E2E)
• Tackle tech debt thoughtfully, without over-engineering
• Contribute to CI/CD pipelines and Docker-based environments
• Work within a regulated industry environment

Working Style

• Remote-first with regular in-person team meetups (UK-based)
• Small, collaborative team with shared ownership
• Alpine.js, Tailwind CSS, Vite
• Docker, GitHub Actions (CI/CD)
• AWS, Sentry, Cloudflare + third-party integrations

What We’re Looking For

• Strong SQL fundamentals and performance awareness
• Frontend sensibility (responsive + accessible design)
• Testing mindset and attention to quality
• Clear communicator who thrives in a small team
• Pragmatic approach to problem-solving

Nice to Have

• Alpine.js or similar frameworks
• Experience in regulated environments
• Interest in using AI tools to improve development workflows

If you’re looking for a role where you can take ownership, ship meaningful improvements, and work with a modern Laravel stack in a supportive team - we’d love to hear from you.
