• Als PHP developer kom je terecht in een jong team dat verantwoordelijk is voor de verdere ontwikkeling van het software platform. • Je zal betrokken zijn bij het bouwen en uitrollen van nieuwe features volgens de (product en technische) roadmap. • Je bereidt het platform voor om het open te stellen voor meer en grotere klanten door de performantie en schaalbaarheid te verbeteren. • Omdat je een van de eersten bent in een groeiend team, kun je – en dat verwachten we - je stempel drukken op zowel de ontwikkelingsprocessen als de toekomst van het team.

• Collaborate with Designers, Product Managers, and Software Engineers to build and maintain the user experience, accessibility, and development feasibility of the website, applications, and supporting digital spaces. • Design and implement innovative solutions for the presentation of data and content on our websites, mobile apps, and other platforms. • Adhere to JoVE’s brand standards and convey it cohesively across the website, supporting digital spaces and third-party platforms. • Stay updated on the latest standards, changes, and web design and development trends. • Contribute towards engineering excellence in areas like automated unit testing. • Collaborate with key stakeholders on project design and implementation and other developers to maintain standards and create a reusable codebase. • Expected to be self-motivated, needing little guidance on completing tasks on time and meeting expectations in terms of requirements. • Explain and “whiteboard” complex technical issues to audiences with varying levels of technical expertise. • Debug software components and identify code defects for remediation. • Assist in automating deployments to development and other environments.

• Lead the design, architecture, and hands-on development of scalable software solutions, driving the delivery of critical features and core systems. • Mentor and develop a high-performing engineering team by promoting technical excellence, collaboration, continuous learning, and AI-assisted development practices. • Partner with Scrum Masters, Product, QA, and Engineering teams to plan, build, test, and deliver high-quality cloud, web, mobile, and desktop applications. • Establish and uphold software engineering best practices, ensuring projects are delivered on time, maintainable, and aligned with quality standards. • Drive continuous improvement by resolving complex technical challenges, leading root cause analysis, optimizing system performance, and sharing emerging technologies and best practices.

• Develop and maintain web applications using back-end programming languages • Participate in team meetings to discuss improvements and new features • Perform testing and debug code to ensure software quality • Collaborate with the development team to ensure efficient integration with the front-end
