Laravel Developer
Dext, Bulgaria
Job Description
WE ARE DEXT!
Our suite of tools makes accountants more productive, profitable and powerful. In doing so we give them back the most precious commodity, time, which they can then use to add greater value to their clients.
Accountants and bookkeepers are the backbones of every successful business. For more than a decade we’ve empowered our partners with innovative technology solutions to make businesses better. Dext allows them to meet the challenges they face today, tomorrow and in the future.
Architecture amp; Stack
Our systems are mostly done using Ruby on Rails. We use Python for machine learning. We have a large web app, a few smaller ones, a few mobile apps (Android and iOS), and a growing fleet of services (in the sense of Service-Oriented Architecture) talking via HTTP. That said, we also have a product built entirely on Laravel. We like the Laravel stack as it reminds us of Ruby on Rails.
Team, Challenges amp; You
The development team is mostly in Bulgaria. Because we’re a remote company we have people in Sofia, Plovdiv, Burgas, Varna, and Ruse. Everyone can choose where to work from.
We have reasonable processes, organised Kanban boards, stand-ups that don’t last more than 10 minutes and product owners writing detailed (sometimes a bit too detailed) specifications. We value highly the quality of the code and good practices. We’ve suffered enough without them. Our management is well aware of that. We’ve even had the need to explain that we don’t need so much time for paying back technical debt. Some of us even talk about those things (code reviews, automated testing, refactoring).
What you'll do
- Write clean, maintainable and efficient code
- Design robust, scalable and secure features
- Improve upon a product built by Laravel and Vue.js
- Contribute to all phases of the development lifecycle
- Follow best practices (test-driven development, continuous integration, SCRUM, refactoring and code standards)
- Drive continuous adoption and integration of relevant new technologies into the design
What do we seek
Our ideal candidate is someone who shares our love of quality and doing things the right way. Writing tests, structuring the abstractions cleanly and polishing the code until it shines should be their desire. We’re looking for good and experienced developers, who are not afraid to learn new things and work on hard problems. If this sounds interesting and you think we might click, get in touch with us.
