Lead PHP Developer - Sheffield (Hybrid) - £50-65,000
Laravel/AWS/Microservices | Hybrid Remote | Generous holiday allowance | Flexible Work Culture

Ada Meher's client is on the lookout for a Lead PHP Developer, specialised in Laravel, to join their established team as they continue development work on their core product. Already a successful business, they have a very exciting product roadmap and are looking for someone to come on board and help them reach their full potential. They have a focus on working with the latest versions of the technologies on the market and continually improving their codebases to avoid technical debt, as well as development of new products and features. As such, you can expect to use the latest versions of Laravel/Vue on AWS deployed Microservices.
Flexibility is at the heart of their culture, adopting a hands off management approach and trusting the team to deliver results whilst remaining available when needed. This allows for a lot of flexibility in working hours, with employees left to work their hours around their life rather than the other way around. They do value a sense of belonging and team culture, so ask for an office presence one day per week - but they're not dogmatic around mandating this.
The ideal candidate will have an air of technical authority and be comfortable mentoring and reviewing code for more junior members of the team. You will also be familiar with working to SOLID principles and the latest PSR standards. In return you will get the chance to work in a team where you are able to share ideas freely and get involved in the future roadmaps for the company, as well as enjoy a very supportive and flexible working environment. Given the size of the team now, 8 developers, and the rate at which they are looking to scale this role presents a great opportunity for a candidate who is looking to make a real impact on a product.
To be considered:

• Team/Technical Leadership experience
• Strong experience of OOP PHP and Laravel
• Demonstrable experience with Microservice architecture
• Knowledge of SOLID principles, PSR standards and TDD
• HTML, CSS, JavaScript (Vue/Tailwind would be ideal)
• Any knowledge of AWS is desirable but not essential

The company in question, as well as working at the forefront of their market, have a real focus on making sure they offer the best possible learning opportunities and progression for their technical staff, with regular self-learning days and supported progression plans part of a benefits package that also contains enhanced parental leave and much more!
This Lead PHP Developer role is attracting a high number of applicants at the moment so be sure to send a CV to  in confidence to avoid missing out!
