  • Confident PHP developer

  • Spec product features with stakeholders

Desirable Skills:

  • Cloudflare Workers
  • Laravel

Job Specification

The successful candidate will be primarily working on our internal tools, using a mix of technologies. For our frontend we use VueJS with Vuetify as our UI framework. We also make use of NuxtJS.

For our backend, services are built primarily in GoLang. Experience in this is not required and you will not be expected to maintain any microservices. However, knowledge of hooking into microservices is recommended. If you're comfortable with writing backend services, that's a bonus. We also make use of Cloudflare Workers and Laravel for some parts of our backend, along with Node that provides real-time communication on our internal dashboard.

This will involve communicating with our helpers and discussing potential new features that will help solve issues and make their lives easier. Communicating these desires and building a specification alongside the rest of the team is vital.

Alongside our dashboard, you will be responsible for the main Blockception website, translation tool and our new future Galaxite website. We also build and maintain misc tools for both teams to aid with day-to-day tasks.
