Web Developer II (PHP)

Job Description

The Role

We’re seeking a mid-level web developer to build and maintain PHP-based web applications using MariaDB, JavaScript, HTML, and CSS. Candidates must have hands-on development experience and the ability to deliver features independently, from requirements through testing and deployment. This is an in-person position requiring attendance at our office Monday through Friday; remote and hybrid work arrangements are not available. 

What You’ll Do

• Design, build, test, and maintain PHP/MariaDB web applications and supporting services. Extend and document our custom API that bridges our proprietary desktop applications and web services

• Diagnose and resolve production issues. Collaborate with our development team on improvements to existing sites and on new initiatives

• Make sound technical trade-offs and explain them to non-technical stakeholders when needed

What We’re Looking For

• 5–7 years of professional web development experience

• Strong command of the LAMP/LEMP stack.

• Solid front-end fundamentals: HTML, CSS, JavaScript

• Experience designing, building, and consuming REST APIs

• Comfort with Git and modern source-control workflows

• Track record of owning features from spec through deployment and maintenance

• Clear written and verbal communication — you can explain a technical decision to a non-engineer

Nice to Have

• Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science or a related field (not required — equivalent experience is fine)

• NodeJS development experience

• Experience integrating web services with desktop applications

• Print industry, e-commerce, or franchise-systems background
