Due to exciting growth, our client are looking to recruit an experienced PHP developer to join their talented development team. Their team currently consists of a new developer who has recently joined them and two well-established employees who have a tenure of over 16 years combined! This is a fantastic time to join them as you will be working on a new project that is launching in January!

At Protect Line, they are not just a life insurance broker but an industry game-changer. Being independently owned, they have the freedom to blaze their own trail and innovate on their terms. They're looking for a dynamic and passionate developer who will not just follow their path, but help create it. They're transforming the life insurance space one line of code at a time, and they want you on board.

This role is predominantly remote, but with their other three Software Developers living in Edinburgh, you have opportunity to meet and collaborate on occasion. There will also be the occasional requirement to travel to their head office in Bournemouth on the South Coast.

As a Full Stack Developer, you will be:

  • Enhancing and developing our bespoke CRM, Office Line with exciting new features
  • Utilising your PHP experience to ensure strong back end functionality
  • Take on the task of server side development
  • Collaborating closely with the rest of the team as well as business stakeholders

Their current tech stack:

PHP 8, Symfony, Angular 18 / AngularJS, Bootstrap, Docker, MariaDB, RabbitMQ, Memcached

Don't have experience with all the technologies mentioned? No problem... as long as you have a strong desire to learn! As we are a relatively small IT and software development team, each member makes a real difference. There may be chances for you to put any experience with other programming languages, technologies or tools to good use alongside PHP development.
