• in 2025, appflame ranked 5th among the 50 best employers in Ukraine according to Forbes and won in the "Place for Growth" category.

We are looking for daring, brave, and “crazy” people. Fans of creating real products and who dream about launching and developing cool startups. You have ambitions, we have comfortable conditions for their fulfillment. 

You will: 

• Build and scale marketing automation processes, reducing manual work and operational costs. 

• Collaborate closely with marketing, analytics, and product teams to translate business needs into scalable technical solutions. 

• Own marketing automation tasks end-to-end — from problem discovery and solution design to delivery and iteration.

• Identify bottlenecks in existing marketing processes and proactively propose improvements. 

We’ll have a match if you: 

• Have knowledge of any modern framework. 

• Have strong hands-on experience with PHP 8. 

• Have solid experience with MySQL. 

• Have experience working with Redis. 

• Understand and have worked with queues, jobs, and events. 

• Have a good understanding of OOP principles, SOLID, and common design patterns. 

• Understand and have experience with Agile software development methodologies. 

• Experience with DDD is a plus. 

• Are highly autonomous and comfortable taking full ownership without constant guidance. 

• Are proactive and don’t wait for perfect or fully defined requirements. 

• Can clearly communicate with non-technical stakeholders and explain technical decisions in simple terms. 

• Are comfortable working in a fast-evolving environment where processes are still being built. 

• Can prioritize effectively and balance delivery speed with code quality. 

Will be an advantage: 

• Previous experience with marketing automation solutions or MarTech platforms. 

• Understanding of key marketing metrics such as CAC, LTV, CPM, CTR, ROI, and similar performance indicators. 

• Experience collaborating closely with marketing or growth teams. 

• Experience integrating AI-based solutions for business or marketing use cases (e.g., automation, analytics, optimization, productivity tools).
