Senior PHP Back-end engineer (Fully remote)


This is an exciting opportunity to work on a project for a US based client in the travel industry.

We're looking for a Senior engineer with PHP experience to join Overloop. We are a close-knit small team, committed to quality code, processes that work, honesty, and seeing things through to completion. A typical working day will involve a 20 minute catch up call to kick off the day, reviewing requirements and/or bug reports, coding, discussing over Slack and Google Hangouts, creating a github PR, getting the PR reviewed and seeing your code get to production to make a difference for our clients.


Overloop is a UK based company, and our team currently works remotely from around Europe. We meet up a few times a year in a European city for a week to get some face time, eat great food and generally catch up.


Are you the right candidate?


We are looking for a Senior PHP Engineer with the following experience:

  • PHP, 4+ years
  • Laravel, 2+ years
  • Strong communication skills
  • Experience working with integration with external API’s
  • Experience of designing and implementing data model changes


Experience in the following areas would be a benefit:

  • Postgres
  • Computer Science degree
  • Team Lead
  • Working with a US timezone crossover
  • Working for large teams / companies


Soft skills

  • Proactive mindset
  • Problem solving


Approximate salary range / contractors equivalent - €40-45 ($46-52) per hour - depending on experience.


Please note that we cannot sponsor visas at this time.


The interview process will look like:

  • You will have a 30min - 1h call where you will be asked show some PHP code that you have previously written and that you can screen-share during the interview and talk through (you do not need to make live changes to the code or run it therefore do not need server /database set up) - check your emails (including spam) to make sure you haven't missed the invite. It will be 1h long and is also an opportunity to discuss your experience and hear a bit more about the role.
  • If we think you are a good fit, the last interview will take place with our client and you will have the opportunity to ask more questions, and demonstrate your skills.


Please be aware that Overloop does not request an AI-led interview. All conversations throughout, and the interview itself will be with a team member from Overloop. We won't ask for your personal identification documents during your interview process with us. If you receive an email - claiming to be from Overloop - but from an email address ending in anything other than @overloop.io, please be aware that this is not us.
