This is a full time role How we work Whilst we have an office in London the dev team is based remotely over the UK and broadly follow an agile approach to working, including Daily standups over Zoom Sprint planning/retrospectives Code reviews Show and tell/sprint demos You need to be available/online during standard office hours and be able to come down to our London office (where appropriate) once every few months (we’ll pay for your travel) for everything from catchups with other parts of the business, planning/architecture sessions as well as some more fun activities- we’ve recently had company outings to escape rooms, VR gaming sessions and outdoor bowls (we are a sports startup after all!) What we’re looking for You’ll need experience of modern PHP practices (via Laravel, Symfony etc), git workflows and real world testing experience (phpunit/dusk) but more importantly an easy going nature (no prima donnas/rockstars please) and self starter attitude – you will have a high degree of autonomy in your day to day work as well as development decisions – we don’t like to micro-manage. What we offer We’ll supply hardware of your choice (windows/macbook/linux etc) Ability to decide on tooling that you use day to day – sublime/phpstorm, sourcetree/kraken etc Code improvement weeks – every 2 sprints we take a week off to work on the codebase on a whole, be it looking for a different approach to something you’ve noticed, scratching your own itch or experimenting with some new tech Access to learning materials (udemy/laracasts etc) or conferences – we recently sent all devs to Laravel Live UK including hotels Nice to haves Experience in React a big plus Eye for design – we don’t need to create UIs from scratch but ideally you would be able to create new pages based on other designs Willingness to look at other tech stacks e.g react native, go, electron etc Day to day tasks As with any startup the work is varied, but here’s a random selection of things we’ve recently been working on working with NFC readers/wristbands as well as turnstiles/gates for access control Creating API endpoints for our booking widgets Creating a theming system to handle out white label offerings Handling contactless payments via websockets Point of sale module with a react frontend built for touch screens Tech stack/approach The main stack at the moment is: Laravel 5.7 Redis Bootstrap 4 GitHub React / react native Circle CI build process Docker / Kubernetes for development and production How to apply Please include the following alongside your CV, if you fail to add these then your application may be rejected_ location availability salary expectations CV and any other details you may have such as GH links etc Finally, although the product is sports focused, only around 20% of the team could actually explain the offside rule to you, so please don’t let that put you off ????
