Full Stack Engineer

Job Summary

We are seeking a Senior Full Stack Developer with 8-10 years of experience to build, enhance, maintain, and support real estate, title, settlement, and signing-order workflow platforms. The candidate should have strong hands-on experience in PHP, Laravel, CodeIgniter, custom PHP frameworks, Vue.js/React.js, REST APIs, MySQL/PostgreSQL, secure integrations, and production application support.

The ideal resource should not only develop features but also understand the platform deeply, take ownership of support issues independently, perform root cause analysis, improve system stability, and collaborate with stakeholders during US Eastern or Central business hours. Experience with AI-assisted development tools such as Claude, Microsoft Copilot, GitHub Copilot, or Cursor will be considered a strong plus.

Key Responsibilities

• Lead development, enhancement, maintenance, and support of web applications used in real estate, title, settlement, signing, notary scheduling, and order management workflows.
• Architect scalable and secure backend solutions using Laravel, CodeIgniter, custom PHP frameworks, MVC patterns, service layers, queues, schedulers, events, jobs, and reusable modules.
• Build responsive frontend modules using Vue.js/React.js, JavaScript/TypeScript, HTML5, CSS3, API-driven UI patterns, and modern UX standards.

• Integrate with third-party systems such as title production platforms, CRM systems, notary/vendor networks, email/SMS providers, accounting systems, payment gateways, document management systems, and analytics tools.
• Take ownership of production support issues independently, including investigation, debugging, fixing, testing, deployment coordination, and closure validation.
• Perform root cause analysis for recurring issues and implement long-term corrective actions instead of temporary fixes.
• Improve platform reliability, scalability, maintainability, security, performance, and observability through structured engineering practices.
• Manage Docker-based development environments, Git branching, CI/CD pipelines, release notes, deployment validation, and post-release monitoring.
• Use AI-assisted development tools responsibly for code review, development acceleration, documentation, test generation, debugging, and knowledge discovery while ensuring all AI-generated output is reviewed before use.
• Collaborate with project managers, business analysts, QA teams, operations teams, and client stakeholders to convert business workflows into reliable technical solutions.
• Mentor developers, conduct code reviews, enforce standards, prepare technical documentation, and contribute to support runbooks and knowledge base articles.
