About the technology

Our services are built around a core of PHP (symfony), postgres, React with millions of people per day using some aspect of the system. On the backend side we use a Symfony fork (https://github.com/rock-symphony/rock-symphony), Propel (http://propelorm.org/) and interact with a Postgres (RDS) database.

We're big believers in devops/CI - building, testing, and deploying to any of our environments are as simple as pushing a commit to a git branch. The infrastructure is containerized, built on top of AWS using Kubernetes. 

We're a technology company first: This means that in addition to product and business development plans, we put emphasis on continual improvement of our stack and infrastructure.

The role

We are looking for a backend engineer with deep understanding of PHP (Symfony) and best practices when it comes to application development. Bonus points for experience with our specific stack.

You will work on a variety of projects, mostly around the core Prezly product. Your work will ship continuously (when it’s done). You will have a direct impact in our customers’ experience and the overall trajectory of the business.
