Why Work Here?

The Position
We are looking to hire multiple experienced Laravel Developers that will work remotely via GitHub. This is a part-time position from 5 to 20 hours per week for the next 4 months and there will likely be opportunities to work with us longer. We are an escape room company that has a monolith repository which is a Laravel Ecommerce application. In the next few development sprints, we want to break the codebase out into Laravel Packages and add a number of new features.
The company has 4 other Laravel developers that you will be working and communicating with during the project and we would like to bring on 10+ part-time developers with a variety of expertise to have multiple eyes reviewing the packages and allow each person to have autonomy in developing specific features. The packages will be open source and you will be able to demonstrate your work publicly as part of your resume. Due to company constraints, we can only hire US-based individuals.
