Senior Software Engineer

WE'RE HIRING: Senior Software Engineer
Fully remote | PH-based candidates preferred
The role
We're looking for a strong Senior Software Engineer who has built and maintained serious, business-critical systems, not brochure websites. You'll take ownership of complex features end to end, shape technical decisions, and raise the bar for the engineers around you.
What you'll do
You'll design, build, and maintain scalable backend systems and APIs for enterprise clients; translate business requirements into clean, well-architected solutions; review code and mentor junior and mid-level developers, helping them grow their technical skills and engineering practices; work closely with Project Delivery and Engineering leadership on estimates, technical risks, and delivery; and contribute to architecture, performance, and security decisions across projects.
What we're looking for
Bachelor's degree in Computer Science, Information Technology, Computer Engineering, or a related field
7+ years of professional software development, with solid time in a senior or lead capacity
Strong PHP experience, ideally with a modern framework such as Laravel
A track record on enterprise or complex custom applications (e.g. platforms, integrations, internal business systems, SaaS)
Sound understanding of relational databases, RESTful API design, and version control (Git)
Hands-on experience using AI tools such as Claude in day-to-day development, with the judgement to review, validate, and refine AI-generated code
Experience mentoring or coaching junior developers
Comfortable working independently in a remote team and communicating clearly in English with international stakeholders
Nice to have
Knowledge of or hands-on experience with blockchain technologies (smart contracts, Web3 integrations, or related tooling)
Experience with cloud infrastructure (AWS, GCP, or Azure), CI/CD, and containerisation
Exposure to front-end frameworks such as React or Vue
Please note: this role is focused on enterprise application development. Candidates whose experience is primarily in WordPress or theme-based website builds are unlikely to be a fit.
