About the Role
We are looking for a mid-level Full-Stack Engineer who is equally comfortable on the front end and the back end. You will be working with React to build responsive, high-performance web interfaces and PHP to develop the server-side logic and APIs that power them. You take ownership of your work across both layers and care about how they fit together, not just your slice of it.
What You Will Be Doing
Building and maintaining web applications using React, with attention to performance, component architecture, and user experience
Developing server-side logic, RESTful APIs, and backend services in PHP
Integrating front-end and back-end systems cleanly, ensuring data flows reliably between layers
Working with relational databases to design, query, and optimise data structures
Collaborating with product, design, and engineering teams to turn requirements into working software
Participating in code reviews and contributing to shared engineering standards
Troubleshooting and resolving issues across the full stack
Writing clean, well-documented, and testable code with maintainability in mind
What You Bring
Essential:
3 to 5 years of hands-on full-stack development experience
Strong proficiency in React including component design, state management, and performance optimisation
Solid PHP development skills including RESTful API design and server-side logic
Experience with relational databases such as MySQL or PostgreSQL
Comfortable working with Git in a collaborative development environment
Strong problem-solving ability with the confidence to debug across both front end and back end
Good communication skills and a collaborative approach to working with cross-functional teams
Advantageous:
Experience in fintech, trading platforms, or regulated financial services
Exposure to cloud infrastructure such as AWS, GCP, or Azure
Familiarity with CI/CD pipelines and deployment practices
Experience with front-end and back-end testing frameworks
Knowledge of TypeScript
