Remote Full Stack PHP Developer

Description:

• Our client is seeking a full-stack PHP Developer to join their team.
• The successful candidate will work closely with an existing team of three, maintaining and enhancing existing applications primarily built with CakePHP.
• This is an exciting opportunity to join a successful, fast-paced motor group and contribute to developing both public-facing and internal tools.

• Collaboration with the team to meet deadlines and deliver changes individually once completed and tested is essential.

• A strong understanding of RDBMS (PostgreSQL/MySQL) and data design is essential.
• Experience using GIT version control is required.
• The candidate should have solid knowledge of object-oriented programming concepts.
• Excellent communication skills and attention to detail are required for this position.

• The role involves working with a collaborative team, enhancing teamwork and communication skills.
• The opportunity to contribute to both public-facing and internal tools allows for a diverse range of work experiences.
