Overview
Job Description
We're looking for a Senior Engineer who takes pride in building reliable, well-crafted software at every layer. From a carefully modeled Eloquent relationship to a UI that makes complex infrastructure feel simple.
We make software development enjoyable, batteries-included, and productive. Laravel Cloud is a fully-managed PaaS trusted by thousands of developers and teams to ship and scale Laravel applications in production. You'd be joining a small, senior team that cares as much about how code is written as what it ships.
This is a role for someone who is deeply at home in PHP and Laravel, has strong instincts for backend architecture, and can cross the stack to ship a polished Inertia + React interface when the feature calls for it.
Location: Between EU West and US East for optimal collaboration with the team.
What You'll Do
- Design and build full-stack features across the Laravel Cloud platform - from database schema and Eloquent models through to Inertia-powered React UIs.
- Architect clean, testable Laravel backends: Actions, Form Requests, queued jobs, event broadcasting, and multi-tenant API endpoints.
- Work across a rich domain: applications, environments, deployments, databases, caches, filesystems, networking, DNS zones and observability.
- Write comprehensive Pest tests for every feature - happy paths, failure modes, and edge cases - and hold the codebase to a high standard of coverage and type safety.
- Contribute polished frontend work using React and Inertia.js - dashboards, resource UIs, real-time data, and complex form flows.
- Uphold engineering standards: PHPStan/Larastan static analysis, 100% type coverage, Pint/Rector formatting, ESLint.
- Collaborate with product and design to ship work that's both technically sound and feels great to use.
