Job Description – Full Stack PHP Engineer (Mid-Level)
Reports To - Engineering Manager
Summary
AxisCare is hiring a full-time full stack mid-level Software Engineer to join our 100% remote team. Does this sound familiar? You’re a skilled developer, and you can get the job done, but you know there’s a lot more to learn. Maybe you’ve grown tired of agency life, and you’re looking for a place to go deep to develop expertise around system architecture and software design. This is the opportunity you’ve been looking for. Here you’ll find a talented group of senior and staff engineers deeply invested in your growth.
You’ll help us meet the needs of the growing home care market with new features in our market-leading home care SaaS powered by a PHP-based web stack. For this senior-track position, that means:
- Building small, well-defined features within a project team with mentorship from more senior team members
- Effectively managing your time to make meaningful progress and ship on time, avoiding unimportant details
- Maintaining a humble, always-a-student approach, diligently seeking out opportunities for experience and self-directed learning, and eagerly sharing what you’ve learned with others
We hire great people, invest in their growth, and trust them to do great work. That means software development typically happens within autonomous project teams that are responsible for driving well-shaped projects from concept to completion. No egos here. Just a handful of humble, talented, and conscientious builders who play well with others and work as a team to ship great things.
What We’re Looking For
- At least 2 years' experience as a professional software engineer on teams, building web apps with the full PHP web stack, including a modern PHP framework and HTML, CSS, and JavaScript.
- Experience building React-based apps written in TypeScript.
- Basic understanding of object-oriented programming
- Experience working with relational databases like MySQL
- Experience with a distributed version control system like Git to collaborate on software development within a team
- A good writer, which is especially important given the asynchronous and technically precise nature of our work
- A mindset of software development as a team sport, preferring team success over personal achievement
- You’re able to work remotely and live in the Eastern, Central, or Mountain time zones in the US. You must be qualified to work in the United States or Canada.
What We’d Be Excited to Find
- Experience building applications designed to run in a cloud-native environment (a.k.a. The Twelve-Factor App)
- Familiarity building and maintaining HIPAA-compliant software.
- Experience designing and building RESTful APIs
- Experience integrating with third-party APIs
Working Conditions
- Manual dexterity required to use desktop computer and peripherals.
Compensation and Equipment
- Salary (TBD based on job experience and skill level)
- Medical insurance is covered in full for the employee (Medical, Dental and Vision)
- Company will provide laptop and other needed computer equipment
