Full-Stack Web Developer (Laravel / WordPress / PHP)

We’re looking for a mid–senior level full-stack web developer who is strong in fundamentals, comfortable working on servers, and not afraid to learn new technology when the job demands it.  You’ll work directly with a development lead, building and maintaining WordPress sites, Laravel projects, and occasionally exploring newer stacks when needed.

• Work across backend and frontend (PHP, JS, modern frameworks when needed)

• Work with MySQL and PostgreSQL databases 

• Use SSH and Linux commands comfortably for day-to-day work 

• Collaborate directly with the dev lead and communicate progress clearly
