About the role

  • Embark on a large-scale, multi-year modernization initiative to transform a legacy monolithic PHP application into a modern, microservice-oriented architecture hosted on AWS.
  • Bring deep experience in API-driven development, AWS cloud infrastructure, and modern DevOps practices to help drive this transformation.
  • Play a key role in decoupling business domains, architecting, implementing, and maintaining new microservices using Symfony/Doctrine or similar frameworks.
  • Focus on delivering high-quality, secure, and scalable API integrations.
  • Bring hands-on experience across the full development lifecycle — from design and implementation to CI/CD and infrastructure-as-code — all within an Agile Scrum environment.
  • Collaborate closely with DevOps and Infrastructure teams to design cloud-native solutions using AWS services (e.g., Lambda, ECS, EKS, S3, API Gateway).

Requirements

  • 5+ years of professional experience in back-end development with PHP (Symfony or other MVC frameworks preferred).
  • Strong understanding of microservice architecture and API-first design principles.
  • Proven experience deploying and managing applications on AWS (ECS, EKS, Lambda, API Gateway, RDS, CloudWatch, etc.).
  • Proficiency with Docker and Kubernetes (EKS or equivalent) for containerized deployments.
  • Hands-on experience with CI/CD pipelines (e.g., GitHub Actions, Jenkins, GitLab CI, or AWS CodePipeline).
  • Experience using Infrastructure-as-Code tools such as Terraform or AWS CloudFormation.
  • Strong understanding of third-party API integration patterns, rate limiting, and error handling best practices.
  • Experience working within an Agile/Scrum environment.
  • Solid understanding of software design patterns, version control (Git), and code quality best practices.
  • Excellent problem-solving, communication, and collaboration skills.
