About the role 

We are looking for a Senior PHP developer with a strong technical background to join a fantastic Core team. In this role, you’ll focus on pure backend development, creating new features, API endpoints, and refactoring existing functionality.

This role requires deep expertise in pure PHP to help build and maintain complex backend systems. This is not your typical web development role—it is focused purely on backend architecture, performance optimization, and scalable solutions.

You will be responsible for refactoring code, improving existing systems, and playing an active role in technical decision-making. We need someone with a strong understanding of server-side logic, API design, and system optimization, who can solve complex challenges with performance and scalability in mind.

In our project ecosystem, apart from PHP services, we have services built with Java, so you will have the opportunity to work with new technologies and learn new skills.

What you’ll be doing

• Working in a self-managing team based on Agile principles
• Implementing new and maintaining existing functionality in services built with pure PHP 
• Refactoring codebase to enhance performance, scalability, and security
• Participating in planning, discovering solutions, initiating and driving innovations and improvements

What you’ll bring to the team

• Multiple years of experience in PHP development
• Experience and understanding of high-load systems, related challenges, and features
• Skills in high-performance scalable system development
• Excellent English, both spoken and written

The WOW-factor

We are looking for a person with profound PHP skills who is passionate about technical excellence and committed to delivering high-quality, maintainable code, continually striving to improve both their own work and the team’s development practices, and wants to share their knowledge and be a part of this great team! Also, knowledge of Java and Cloud technologies is a plus.

What’s in it for you?

Quinyx promotes and encourages a healthy lifestyle with flexible work hours and the latest tools, enhanced vacation allowance, wellness, home office, professional development contributions, virtual yoga classes, and last but not least, you will have the chance to participate in their well-known yearly ping-pong tournament!
