About the Role:

At RocketPeople, you'll take ownership of developing and maintaining scalable applications using the Laravel framework. By embracing the Laravel ecosystem, we've streamlined operations, reducing the need for a large in-house DevOps team. We bring in external expertise when needed, so having some familiarity with DevOps practices is a plus.

  • High-Availability Applications: Design and maintain high-traffic, large-scale web applications with a focus on uptime.
  • Queues and Workers: Manage background job processing using Laravel's queue system (Redis, SQS) to optimize performance.
  • Experience with Async processes through message brokers: (Rabbit MQ, Kafka)
  • Performance Optimization: Optimize databases, implement caching strategies, and use profiling tools to enhance performance.
  • Data-Driven Decision Making: Use monitoring tools (New Relic, Datadog, Sentry) to identify inefficiencies and propose improvements.
About You:

We're looking for someone with extensive experience in Laravel and a background in building scalable, high-availability applications. You should have a proactive mindset, focusing on optimizing performance and collaborating across teams.

Must have:

  • Experience: 5-8 years of experience in web development, with a focus on Laravel and SaaS environments.
  • Laravel Mastery: Deep knowledge of Laravel, including new versions and features, and experience with cloud platforms (Azure, AWS, Google Cloud).
  • Performance-Oriented: Proven track record of optimizing high-traffic applications for performance and availability.
  • Problem Solver: Skilled at diagnosing complex infrastructure challenges and proposing innovative solutions.
  • Collaborative: Able to work closely with frontend (Vue), and app development teams (React Native).
  • Proactive: Always looking for ways to improve system scalability, reliability, and performance.
  • Security-Focused: Experience implementing security measures (CSRF, XSS, SQL Injection) and maintaining secure systems.
  • Excellent Communicator: Capable of explaining technical decisions and optimizations to both technical and non-technical teams.

Nice to have:

  • DevOps Knowledge: Experience with CI/CD pipelines, Docker, or Infrastructure as Code (Terraform).
  • Monitoring & Alerting: Familiarity with tools like New Relic, Datadog, Sentry or Laravel-specific tools (Telescope).
  • High-Scale Projects: Experience working on high-traffic applications in industries like e-commerce or SaaS.
