Job Description

Senior PHP Developer

rrreefs

• Ship features end‑to‑end in a framework‑free, OOP PHP codebase (namespaces, interfaces, traits, SOLID principles). • Design and implement RESTful endpoints (JSON), including request validation, pagination, error handling, and versioning. • Write robust SQL (DDL/DML), optimise queries and indexes, and integrate via PDO with prepared statements. • Work with MongoDB for document‑oriented use cases; design efficient schemas and aggregation pipelines where relevant. • Build and enhance front‑end interactions with jQuery, HTML/CSS, and Tailwind CSS for fast, clean UI work. • Integrate external APIs (REST/Webhooks), handle oauth/token flows, retries, idempotency, and rate‑limit strategy. • Operate in AWS: deploy apps on Elastic Beanstalk, manage assets in S3, use DynamoDB where appropriate, and keep environments healthy (logs, scaling, env vars). • Handle SSL/TLS certificate management and DNS via Cloudflare; ensure zero‑downtime renewals and sane caching rules. • Work with WordPress CMS where needed (content ingestion/integration, headless endpoints, custom fields/templates). • Pair closely with another Senior Developer who knows the platform inside‑out; take part in code reviews and architecture discussions. • Own quality: write pragmatic tests, instrument metrics, document decisions, and leave the codebase tidier than you found it.

Job Requirements

  • Core/Vanilla PHP (7.x/8.x) with OOP: interfaces, traits, namespaces, dependency injection, SOLID.
  • RESTful API design & implementation (JSON), auth patterns, and versioning.
  • SQL mastery (query optimisation, indexing, transactions) and PDO best practices.
  • MongoDB fundamentals (schema design, aggregations, performance basics).
  • Front‑end: jQuery, semantic HTML, modern CSS, and Tailwind CSS utility workflows.
  • External API integrations (OAuth, webhooks, retries, idempotency, error/bounce handling).
  • AWS: Elastic Beanstalk deployments, S3 lifecycle, DynamoDB usage, environment configuration, logging/monitoring basics.
  • Security: input validation, CSRF/XSS/SQL injection prevention, secrets management, and safe file handling.
  • SSL/TLS & DNS via Cloudflare (including HSTS, redirects, caching/CDN rulesets, cert renewals).
  • WordPress CMS experience (admin/config, theme/plugin interaction, or headless/REST usage).
  • Git and collaborative workflows (feature branches, code reviews, CI basics).
  • Comfortable with Linux/CLI for diagnostics and automation.
