Job description

We are Tagvenue - one of the world’s fastest-growing online marketplaces for venue hire with over 8,000 event spaces listed in the United Kingdom, Ireland, Australia, Canada, and Singapore. In 2020, we launched a new product - Tagvenue Virtual - a video platform that provides a variety of interactive games that can be played by remote teams.

Our main office in Kraków, Poland is a multicultural hub focused on constant development. Currently, we’re hiring a Senior PHP Developer to join our IT team, working together with 2 senior backend & 2 senior frontend developers, collaborating with our Founders and Product Team. Learn more about the way our software development team works here.

ABOUT THE ROLE

This position can be 100% remote, working on a daily basis within our timezone (CET). The whole team works remotely, but we also have an office in Kraków, Poland available to use.

As a Senior PHP Developer, you will be responsible for:

Developing our marketplace PHP application in a TDD manner (see stack below)
Building our infrastructure in the Infrastructure-As-Code approach - we are gradually migrating our infrastructure into the cloud
Tackling scaling challenges - we grow our traffic volume, data usage and we are expanding geographically into new markets and sources of revenues
Delivering an item (e.g. a feature) over a full chain of value - you will own the delivery starting from partnering with business stakeholders (Product Team, company Founders, other teams) into final deployment to production and monitoring
Choosing the architecture that solves the problem at hand best - we are the only engineering team in the company and we have huge autonomy
Contributing to improving our workflow based on Kanban by constantly decreasing cycle & lead times as well as keeping the Work In Progress low

We are looking for a person interested in the Cloud and Infrastructure-as-Code areas. Experience with IaC is not required but your interest in the subject and eagerness to work on these tasks is (~20% of your assignments). We believe that having strong language-agnostic skills (e.g. TDD) is mandatory to be a good infrastructure coder. You will have a lot of opportunities to grow in this area, as we are on a journey to become a cloud-native application.

Your typical week will consist of:

60% - coding
20% - code reviews
20% - meetings (1:1s, standups, retros, devs’ tech meetings)

Our tech stack:

Backend: PHP, Laravel, Twig, MySQL, Redis, Elasticsearch
Frontend: Vue, Twig, SCSS, Tailwind, Jest
Infrastructure: CDN in Fastly, HAProxy, Nginx, Elasticsearch/Fluentd/Kibana + Grafana stack for monitoring, Docker, Terraform, multiple AWS services for test instances, backups, and CI/CD, PHPUnit & Jest for tests

The above is the stack of our main marketplace application. Last year we also bootstrapped a new video product in Vue, Tailwind, Twilio Video, Google Firestore, and Vercel - although you will work on it rather occasionally.

WHAT YOU NEED TO SUCCEED

Very good knowledge of at least 1 programming language (you will work in PHP), including at least 1 modern framework
Code organization skills - familiarity with concepts such as SOLID, design patterns, Clean Code, Domain-Driven Design, etc.
Following software development best practices, like Test-Driven Development, Trunk-Based Development/Continuous Integration, Delivery and Deployment as well as Agile, DevOps and Infrastructure-as-Code
Constant learner mindset with a passion for IT, actively acquiring new knowledge, and being up to date with the latest state-of-the-art software industry know-how
Great communication skills in English

WHY YOU’LL LOVE WORKING AT TAGVENUE

A well-developed workflow in Kanban and Trunk-Based Development - currently 150 deployments to production monthly, automated tests battery run in ca. 5 min; low Work In Progress (usually 1 story open per developer)
Company Founders who invest in technical excellence practices like fast CI/CD pipelines, writing tests (first), Infrastructure-as-Code, well-organized code (Clean Code, Domain-Driven Design, etc.)
Constant learning culture among sharp and passionate developers who read books, attend & speak at conferences, with unlimited book allowance to support your personal growth
Competitive monthly salary 17-23k PLN net/B2B
20 days of paid time off per year + PL public holidays to support your work-life balance
A choice to work 100% remotely or, if you prefer, from our office in Kraków
