About the role

  • Design and execute software development workflows that leverage AI agents for code generation, refactoring, debugging, testing, documentation, and delivery while maintaining strong engineering judgment and code quality.
  • Help build and improve the internal tools, automation layers, interfaces, and workflows that enable AI coding agents to operate effectively in our environment.
  • Build, test, deploy, and maintain internal tools, integrations, automations, and product features across back-end, front-end, and infrastructure layers as needed.
  • Manage branches, pull requests, merges, reviews, and repository hygiene with strong discipline and ownership.
  • Work efficiently in modern terminal environments using CLI-based workflows, remote development setups, AI-native developer tools, and related systems.
  • Configure and manage SSH keys, access credentials, environment variables, remote systems, and development security best practices.
  • Work with MCP servers and related systems to connect AI tools to development context, internal systems, and operational workflows.
  • Ensure agent-assisted and human-authored code meets high standards of correctness, readability, maintainability, and test coverage.
  • Troubleshoot issues across applications, APIs, databases, infrastructure, environments, and tooling layers.
  • Identify repetitive engineering and operational tasks, then design automations and developer tooling to reduce manual work and improve speed.
  • Work closely with operations, product, and leadership to translate business needs into reliable technical systems.
  • Stay current with AI coding tools, agentic development patterns, and modern software engineering workflows that can improve team performance.

Requirements

  • 5+ years of experience in software development, with the ability to build and maintain production-ready applications, automations, or internal tools.
  • Proven hands-on experience working in agentic engineering workflows, using AI agents as a core part of software delivery rather than as occasional assistants.
  • Strong hands-on experience building and maintaining production applications in Laravel.
  • Solid command of PHP and Laravel conventions, including APIs, authentication, queues, jobs, scheduling, and database-driven architecture.
  • Comfortable operating in environments where coding agents, CLI workflows, Git-based review cycles, and tool orchestration are central to execution.
  • Comfortable using AI agents inside Laravel codebases for feature development, debugging, refactoring, testing, and delivery support.
  • Strong command of Git-based collaboration, including branching strategies, pull requests, code reviews, and merge conflict resolution.
  • High level of comfort working in terminal-based environments and modern developer tooling ecosystems.
  • Strong practical experience with Git, terminal-first workflows, SSH-based remote development, AI-assisted development tools, containerized development using Docker / Docker Compose, and modern CI/CD pipelines.
  • Hands-on experience with Composer, testing frameworks such as PHPUnit or Pest, and code quality tools such as Laravel Pint and PHPStan.
  • Experience working with queues, jobs, schedulers, Redis-backed workflows, and API / webhook integrations in production-style applications.
  • Experience working with MCP servers or similar context/integration layers for AI-enabled development workflows is strongly preferred.
  • Ability not only to use AI coding tools effectively, but also to help design, improve, and extend the tooling and workflows behind them.
  • Strong engineering judgment to validate AI-generated output, maintain code quality, and ensure safe implementation and review standards.
  • Strong written and verbal English communication skills.
Benefits
  • Competitive compensation based on experience and impact.
  • The opportunity to help shape how GBS Group builds with AI-native engineering workflows.
  • A high-autonomy environment where speed, ownership, and innovation are valued.
  • Flexible Time Off and company-wide holidays.
  • The chance to build meaningful internal tools, systems, and developer infrastructure with real business impact.
