About the role
- It's a nine-figure-revenue PHP codebase that's been shipping continuously for over a decade.

- Ten years of overlapping initiatives, partial migrations, and code that needs love sitting next to code that does its job well.
Responsibilities
- what to take on yourself, what to design and hand off, what to coordinate across the team.
- a PHP backend with jQuery and Vue.js on the front end, which has its own rough edges and its own room for improvement.

- You don't propose rewrites you can't ship.
- Experience with large-scale architectural refactors on legacy PHP
- Production experience with modern observability stacks (metrics, tracing, profiling, structured logs)
Compensation
