Requirements

Must:
We are looking for a proven self-starter with a strong sense of ownership and drive, able to lead small projects or features independently. You should be passionate about software craftsmanship, taking pride in the quality and maintainability of your work beyond just submitting pull requests. Working knowledge of Kanban-style project management is essential, along with the ability to balance new feature development with bug fixing. We value backgrounds in consultancy environments or client-facing roles; you should be able to confidently represent our company in meetings. Experience working remotely in a structured team setting, with strong remote collaboration practices, is important. Additionally, you should have experience maintaining and improving legacy or organically grown PHP systems, with an eye for documentation and progressive refactoring. Finally, you must be able to handle long-term project commitments, preferring stability and continuous improvement over short-term projects.

Responsibilities

In this role, I will expect you to take full ownership of assigned projects, proactively driving progress, quality, and delivery. You will act as a key client liaison, participating in regular client calls, gathering feedback, and maintaining strong professional relationships. Working independently and remotely, you will maintain excellent communication with internal teams and clients. I need you to demonstrate a consultancy mindset, understanding client goals and business contexts, adapting solutions accordingly. You will proactively identify opportunities for progressive improvement in custom-built PHP systems, even with limited documentation. It is crucial that you manage your work effectively in a dynamic environment using Kanban methodology, balancing feature development and reactive bug fixes. Open and constructive communication is key, as I expect you to respond well to feedback and contribute to a culture of continuous improvement. Lastly, I would like you to mentor teammates not just on technical skills but also on ownership, client management, and best practices.
