Looking for PHP Developers

You are a calm, collected, and calculated developer with your finger on the pulse of the latest technologies and frameworks. Your evenings are spent tinkering and experimenting on the Next Big Idea. You know your way around a database better than some DBAs, and you show off a bit by using a command prompt instead of a IDE. You are overly particular about code quality and presentation, and coding without testing makes you cry a little. One minute you might be having an actual debate about Angular vs. Ember, and the next thing you know you’re clowning on the latest logo redesign with a designer buddy.

The primary role of the Web Applications Engineer is creating and supporting hosted software applications with a focus on full-stack web development using cutting edge, stable technologies. A typical day might consist of a morning standup meeting, followed by jumping head first into a brand new product or technology. You’ll be exploring, creating, testing and showing off alongside your peers, working to build the best products and apps in our industry.
