A Day in the Life of a PHP Laravel Developer Imagine starting your day with a freshly brewed coffee and a team huddle that’s buzzing with energy, ideas, and ambition. It’s Monday, and as always, you’re at the heart of innovation in our office. As a Full Stack Developer in our talented team, your role reaches far beyond writing code - you’re building the architecture that powers unforgettable digital experiences for users across the UK. You’re part of a company leading the digital entertainment evolution. Here, your work has real impact. Every line of code you commit helps shape a platform that brings daily engagement, thrill, and value to thousands. You’re involved in the full lifecycle of development - from idea to implementation - ensuring every feature is both robust and elegant. Why You’ll Love This Role: You’ve been searching for a role where you can fully own your craft. Here, you’ll work across the entire tech stack, from sleek front-end components to powerful back-end systems. You’ll collaborate closely with designers, product leads, and other engineers to build features that don’t just function - they impress. Key Responsibilities:

• Develop, maintain, and optimise scalable, high-performance web applications using Laravel and the wider PHP/LAMP stack.
• Implement intuitive, responsive front-end interfaces using HTML, CSS, and JavaScript frameworks.
• Architect and integrate APIs and services that power dynamic, data-driven features.
• Write clean, testable code and contribute to continuous deployment and CI/CD workflows.
• Work closely with cross-functional teams to understand user needs and turn them into elegant technical solutions.
• Participate in regular code reviews, stand-ups, and collaborative planning sessions to keep the team aligned and moving fast. What We’re Looking For:
• A seasoned PHP Developer with solid commercial experience across both front-end and back-end disciplines.
• Proven expertise in Laravel and modern PHP development, with strong understanding of MVC architecture and RESTful APIs.
• Competent with front-end tech such as HTML5, CSS3, JavaScript (and ideally frameworks like Vue.js or React).
• Familiarity with MySQL, version control (Git), and cloud platforms or deployment pipelines.
• A natural collaborator who enjoys problem-solving, learning new tools, and contributing to a supportive team environment. Additional Perks:
• Hybrid working - in the office every Monday plus two other days of your choice, giving you the right balance of focus and collaboration.
• 22 days holiday bank holidays, with a generous benefits package that includes performance bonuses, share options, and access to our company-wide rewards scheme.
