Senior Full Stack Engineer (Laravel & React)

About

We’re Bamboo, an all-in-one cannabis software platform designed to keep your business compliant, efficient, and profitable. We’re a relatively small engineering team, with about four overseas contractors and two in-house engineers, and we’re working to move more resources closer to the United States time zone.

Ideal Candidate

We’re looking for a self-sufficient and highly motivated individual to join our team and help push the platform further. Our product has been in development for five years and continues to grow rapidly. The ideal candidate is back-end-focused but comfortable jumping into React when needed. We’re not looking for someone who wants to manage a team or a project; rather, we want someone who can dive into a project and take pride and ownership in their work. We work together as a team and value collaboration.

Stack

PHP, Laravel, MySQL, Redis, ElasticSearch, React (Material UI), Node.js, Docker, Kubernetes

Qualifications

• Expertise in PHP with a high-level understanding of object-oriented programming (OOP) and Laravel
• Strong understanding of relational databases with the ability to construct efficient queries by hand, rather than relying solely on Eloquent. (We do use Eloquent extensively, but we’ve seen too many candidates who lack knowledge of underlying queries and inadvertently degrade database performance)
• Experience with Docker, including deploying containers
• Proven experience developing scalable software solutions
• Strong problem-solving and analytical skills
• Ability to work effectively in a team environment
• Experience in the cannabis industry is a plus

Pay

The pay is pretty open to the ideal candidate. The job is an hourly 1099 position, however will be treated as a FTE and expected to work 40 hours a week with the possibility of joining as an FTA depending on quality of work.  Range is up to $55 USD an hour.
