    • Build and maintain integrations that bring subscribers in from other platforms

    What they're looking for

    • 6+ years building production web applications, with strong PHP and Laravel experience

    • Experience designing and maintaining REST APIs and working with third-party APIs and OAuth
    • Good relational database skills (PostgreSQL preferred) and experience with background jobs and queues
    • A product mindset: comfortable joining customer research, challenging requirements and measuring results after launch
    • Excellent written and spoken English
    • Based within the EMEA region

    Nice to have

    • Building drag-and-drop editors or page builders
    • Integrations with social platforms (e.g. Meta APIs) or WordPress plugin development
    • Understanding of consent and opt-in requirements such as GDPR and double opt-in
    • Bot and abuse protection for public forms
    • Shipping AI-powered features, or using AI-assisted development tools in your daily work

    The hot takeJeff's read on Mailerlite

    MailerLite has downloaded my brain, extracted everything we know about creating a perfect careers page that emphasizes taking an employee-first approach, and published it. Seriously, everything is perfect. Oh, and of course they have an employee map, which really fires me up. We recommend that every company publishes the perks and benefits they offer employees - MailerLite has published an entire page dedicated to their P&Bs. You're over-delivering, big time. There are so many great policies in here that we want to share, but honestly I would have to copy/paste the entire page.
