Responsibilities

  • Design, build, and enhance features within FeeNavigator using PHP/Laravel and Vue
  • Develop efficient database queries and optimize MySQL performance as needed
  • Own the quality of your work end-to-end through developer-led testing — writing unit, integration, and end-to-end tests, and validating your own changes through to production
  • Improve the health of a large, established codebase by refactoring complex areas and decomposing high-complexity components into maintainable, well-structured code
  • Document critical business logic, application workflows, and key architectural decisions
  • Collaborate with Product Managers to refine requirements and contribute to technical solution design
  • Participate in code reviews to maintain high engineering standards and share best practices

  • 5+ years of experience developing complex applications
  • Fluency in PHP and modern development practices
  • Strong understanding of object-oriented programming and design patterns
  • Experience with relational databases such as MySQL (schema design, query optimization)
  • Experience with modern frontend development (JavaScript/TypeScript, Vue, npm, basic CSS/SCSS)
  • Comfort working in large, established codebases — able to navigate unfamiliar systems, untangle complexity, and make sound changes with limited guidance
  • Familiarity with secure coding principles
  • Experience with Git and CI/CD workflows
  • Experience contributing across the full SDLC
  • Effective use of AI-assisted development tools, with the judgment to know where they add value and the discipline to review and validate their output
