Intermediate PHP/VueJS Developer

As an Intermediate PHP Developer, you’ll be working with freedom and independence in a remote capacity supporting global clients in a sub-contractor setting.

You’ll integrate your code with intuitive and dynamic UIs, and ensure that your code is scalable and secure. Your work will be used by tens of thousands of end-users (and growing every day!).

About you

You understand that innovation is seldom a linear path, and sometimes you need to take a step to the side, or back, to allow for a new path to become clear.
