Junior PHP Developer Laravel (m/f/d) in Prishtina, Kosovo

You don’t want to spend your first years as a developer fixing meaningless tasks without understanding the bigger picture.
You want to work on real software projects. You want to improve your Laravel skills, learn from experienced developers, and gradually take ownership of features that are actually used by customers.
If that sounds like you, keep reading.
We are a growing digital transformation and software development company working with clients across different industries. Our projects range from custom business applications and customer portals to process automation, integrations, and AI-powered solutions.
As a Junior PHP Developer, you will become part of our development team and work primarily with PHP and Laravel. You will start with clearly defined development tasks and gradually take on more responsibility as your skills grow.
We are not looking for someone who already knows everything.
We are looking for someone with a solid foundation, around one year of practical experience, and the motivation to become an excellent software developer.
Tasks
You will work on real customer and internal software projects while receiving clear guidance, code reviews, and regular feedback.
Your responsibilities will include:
* Developing and maintaining web applications with PHP and Laravel
* Implementing new features based on technical requirements and user stories
* Building and integrating REST APIs
* Working with relational databases such as MySQL or PostgreSQL
* Fixing bugs and improving existing application functionality
* Writing clean, understandable, and maintainable code
* Supporting the development of automated tests
* Participating in code reviews and technical discussions
* Working with Git-based development workflows
* Collaborating with frontend developers, project managers, and other team members
* Documenting your work and keeping assigned tasks up to date
* Gradually taking ownership of individual features and application components
Depending on the project, you may also work with technologies such as Vue.js, JavaScript, Docker, queues, third-party APIs, and automation platforms.
Requirements
We don’t expect perfection. We expect a strong foundation, reliability, and the willingness to improve.
This role is a good fit for you if you:
* Have approximately one year of practical experience in PHP development
* Have already worked with Laravel on professional, university, freelance, or personal projects
* Understand the fundamentals of object-oriented programming

* Understand the basics of REST APIs and web application architecture
* Have basic experience with Git
* Can independently understand and complete clearly defined development tasks
* Are willing to ask questions when requirements are unclear
* Are interested in writing clean and maintainable code
* Are reliable and communicate progress or blockers openly
* Have excellent English skills at C1 or C2 level
* Are based in or near Prishtina and are able to work in a hybrid setup
Experience with Vue.js, automated testing, Docker, Linux, CI/CD pipelines, or cloud environments is an advantage, but not required.
A university degree is welcome, but practical skills, motivation, and the quality of your work are more important to us.
Benefits
* Work on real software projects from the beginning
* Structured onboarding and clearly defined development tasks
* Regular code reviews and direct feedback from experienced developers
* Professional training and opportunities to improve your technical skills
* A clear development path from Junior Developer to Software Developer
* Modern development tools and professional workflows

* Flexible hybrid work with regular on-site collaboration in Prishtina

* A supportive team where questions and new ideas are welcome
* The opportunity to take on more responsibility as your skills grow
* Long-term career opportunities within a growing software company
* Free beverages and snacks in the office
* Free parking
You won’t be left alone with unclear tasks.
At the beginning, you will receive structured assignments, technical guidance, and regular feedback. As you become more confident, you will take responsibility for larger features and increasingly participate in technical decisions.
We value developers who communicate honestly, think about the quality of their work, and want to understand more than just the code directly in front of them.
This position is for someone who wants to grow.
Someone who is motivated to improve their Laravel skills, learn professional software development workflows, and build software that creates measurable value for real businesses.
