Role Description The Web Engineer is responsible for building, shipping, and continuously improving production web applications that support Stanbridge University's Learning Management System (LMS) and related institutional platforms, built primarily with Laravel (PHP 8.x) and Vue.js (Vue 3). We're looking for engineers who love building software, shipping production-ready features, and continuously improving how software gets built. Working within an established platform architecture, this role delivers secure, scalable, and maintainable software that enhances the experience of students, faculty, staff, and administrators. At Stanbridge, we measure engineering success by what we deliver, how reliably we deliver it, and how continuously we improve the way software gets built. We believe exceptional software is built on strong engineering fundamentals, disciplined execution, thoughtful collaboration, and practical innovation. We embrace modern development tools—including AI where appropriate—as force multipliers to improve delivery speed, software quality, and developer productivity while maintaining high standards for security, maintainability, and craftsmanship. This is not a people-management role. Impact is measured through shipped software, engineering throughput, reduced delivery cycle time, code quality, and meaningful improvements to the student, faculty, and administrative experience. Remote applicants are encouraged to apply. Candidates located within or near Stanbridge University's Southern California campus footprint who can participate in occasional on-campus collaboration are strongly valued. Qualifications - 5+ years of experience building and shipping production web applications in a SaaS or enterprise environment. - Strong hands-on experience with Laravel (PHP 8.x). - Strong experience with Vue.js (Vue 3) and modern JavaScript/TypeScript development. - Experience designing and integrating RESTful APIs. - Strong understanding of relational databases including MySQL or MariaDB, schema design, migrations, and query optimization. - Experience writing automated tests using PHPUnit, Pest, Playwright, Cypress, or equivalent frameworks. - Experience with Git/GitHub workflows, pull requests, and modern CI/CD pipelines. - Experience using modern development tools—including AI-assisted development—to improve engineering productivity while maintaining software quality. - Strong debugging, troubleshooting, and problem-solving skills. - Strong written and verbal communication skills. Requirements - Build, ship, test, and maintain production web applications using Laravel (PHP 8.x) and Vue.js (Vue 3). - Deliver complete, production-ready features that improve the experience of students, faculty, staff, and administrators. - Own assigned work from implementation through testing, deployment, and production support. - Build reusable Laravel services, REST APIs, Vue components, and shared engineering libraries that accelerate future development. - Deliver software in small, reliable increments with a focus on quality, maintainability, accessibility, and performance. - Improve existing applications through thoughtful refactoring, performance optimization, and continuous enhancement. - Integrate internal and third-party enterprise systems using REST/JSON APIs with resilient error handling. - Build responsive, accessible user interfaces aligned with WCAG 2.2 AA accessibility standards. - Continuously improve software delivery through automation, reusable engineering patterns, and modern development practices. - Use AI-assisted development tools, AI agents, and workflow automation where they provide measurable improvements in implementation, testing, debugging, documentation, and code review. - Build reusable development assets—including templates, testing utilities, repository context, prompt libraries, and engineering documentation—that reduce repetitive work and improve team productivity. - Identify repetitive engineering tasks and simplify them through automation, standardization, and practical use of AI-assisted development tools. - Participate in code reviews that improve software quality, maintainability, readability, and engineering consistency. - Stay current with emerging development tools and engineering practices that improve delivery speed without sacrificing quality or security. - Write clean, maintainable, production-ready software. - Develop automated tests using PHPUnit, Pest, Playwright, Cypress, or equivalent frameworks. - Participate in GitHub-based workflows and CI/CD pipelines using GitHub Actions or equivalent tooling. - Troubleshoot production issues and contribute preventative improvements that improve reliability and operational stability. - Apply secure coding practices aligned with OWASP recommendations, including input validation, authorization, dependency management, and secure handling of sensitive information. - Follow university data handling policies and FERPA requirements when developing software and using engineering tools. - Contribute to logging, monitoring, observability, and continuous operational improvements. - Improve engineering workflows through reusable code, automation, documentation, and modern development practices. - Contribute ideas that increase developer productivity and reduce engineering friction. - Share knowledge through collaboration, code reviews, documentation, and technical mentoring. - Help build an engineering culture focused on craftsmanship, accountability, continuous learning, and reliable software delivery.
