Middle+ Full Stack Developer (Vue.js + PHP/Laravel)

We are JATAPP, a multi-product IT company. We build apps that make life better and easier. We work only in white-hat niches across lifestyle, business, AI, cybersecurity and education.

Our diversified portfolio includes 20+ apps with an average rating of 4.7 on the App Store and Google Play, used by 250+ million people worldwide.

JATAPP is looking for a Full-Stack PHP Developer to join our multi-product unit. The unit builds iOS and Android mobile apps and web products in utilities, education and other niches. You will own the backend that powers our apps, as well as the frontend of our web products.

This role is for people who don’t wait for detailed specs or step-by-step mentoring. You get up to speed with a product quickly, take ownership of it and bring tasks all the way to release.

Why it’s interesting

• Impact on the product: You have direct access to product decisions: you suggest ideas and bring them to life in code

• Launches from scratch: The unit is growing, so you’ll take part in launching new products, not just supporting existing ones

• Mature products: You’ll develop products that have been on the market for a long time and have their own users, so every decision you make has a direct impact on real results

• Backend for mobile apps: your APIs will power iOS and Android apps

• Path to Senior: Growing to Senior within a year is realistic if you show independence, proactivity and ownership of the product

Your team

You’ll work in a cross-functional team with product managers, QA engineers, and mobile and web developers, and own 2 core products. We work in a rhythm of daily syncs, groomings and retros, so everyone on the team always stays in context.

Your focus

• Backend development: Build and maintain the PHP (Laravel/Symfony) backend for mobile apps and web products

• APIs and integrations: Build and maintain APIs, integrate third-party services, work with queues (RabbitMQ or similar)

• Payments, marketing and analytics: Implement payment and marketing systems, set up data flows to analytics (Amplitude, GA, AppsFlyer)

• Frontend: Develop the client side of web products in Vue.js

• Releases and stability: Own releases, track product stability through monitoring and alerting (Grafana), and find and fix issues independently

• Teamwork: Work with product managers and QA to decide how best to implement a task, take part in groomings and retros

Your background

• PHP: Commercial experience with PHP using Laravel or Symfony

• Frontend JavaScript: Vue.js is a plus. If your experience is with React, you’re ready to pick up Vue quickly

• Docker: Confident use of Docker in day-to-day development

• Integrations: Experience with APIs, third-party services and queues, as well as integrating payment, marketing and analytics systems

• Quality and stability: Experience with testing, CI/CD, monitoring and alerting, as well as running releases and being responsible for product stability

• Independence: You get up to speed in a new codebase quickly, plan your own tasks, and don’t stay silent about problems but come with solutions. You switch between products easily

• Communication: You can find common ground with product managers, QA and other developers

Nice to have

• Experience with cloud platforms: AWS or Google Cloud

• Basic understanding of NGINX configuration
