  • Work closely with Frontend and other engineers to integrate features, manage dependencies, and solve technical challenges.

  • Uphold and promote engineering best practices through code reviews, knowledge sharing, and continuous improvement.

  • Continuously learn and explore new technologies, identifying opportunities to enhance our systems.

Your Experience

  • Proven experience as a Senior Backend Engineer, with ideally with strong technical expertise in PHP (Laravel), or at least desire to learn and use.
