Overview
Senior PHP/Laravel Web Developer - Full Stack (remote) at ScreenPal. Join to apply for the role at ScreenPal. Role: Senior PHP/Laravel Full Stack Engineer (Remote). We’re looking for a seasoned, self-driven engineer who treats high-level product goals as a map, not a grid of step-by-step instructions.

Collaborate & Refine: Work directly with program management and cross-functional teams to clarify requirements, suggest improvements, and devise elegant and efficient solutions. Architect & Build: Contribute to the overall design process by assisting in paring down business requirements relative to cost, and influencing UI/UX department decisions for optimized MVPs. Then, execute on architecture and build the final product to meet those requirements, or provide the clarity and guidance for a junior developer to execute upon. Front-End Excellence: Translate high-fidelity Figma flow charts and designs into responsive UI components using Laravel Livewire and modern HTML/CSS. API & Data Design: Implement robust RESTful services in PHP/Laravel with Eloquent ORM, and design efficient MySQL schemas and queries. Performance & Automation: Monitor and tune application performance, ensure efficient database queries, write thorough unit tests, and maintain clear code documentation with doc blocks. Ownership & Mentorship: Own full lifecycle delivery of features from GitHub ticket to production. Participate in peer code reviews and coach junior engineers on best practices. Requirements
Must-Have Skills 10+ years in full stack web development utilizing PHP specifically, with a majority of experience utilizing Laravel, preferably with Livewire. Deep expertise in responsive HTML/CSS and cross-browser compatibility. Proven experience designing and optimizing MySQL databases and writing complex queries. Strong understanding of RESTful API design, versioning, and security. Hands-on with AWS (EC2, S3, RDS) to architect and implement scalable Laravel-based features. Familiarity with Git for source control and collaboration. Preferably little experience with revert commits. Constant habit of asking clarifying questions and proposing potentially better approaches. Demonstrated track record of shipping features independently and mentoring others. Fluent command of spoken English to enable clear and effective collaboration in planning meetings and team discussions. Nice-to-Have Background in video hosting/streaming (HTML5 Video, Video.js, HLS). Familiarity with embedding CMS content (e.g., WordPress) into Laravel pages via iframes. Experience developing modular Laravel packages and reusable components to build scalable, maintainable features. Experience architecting and delivering end-to-end full-stack features at scale, including complex business logic implementation and performance optimization. Benefits
