Overview

Are you an experienced professional in PHP, MySQL, and Laravel,and able to effectively share your knowledge with colleagues?Are you looking to join a team where the focus isn't on where or when you work, but rather on the impact you make on our clients' success?

Responsibilities

What you’ll do

At Radancy, a typical day doesn't exist. Here’s a snapshot: You arrive, grab a coffee, and join the back-end development team, greeted by the scenic Hollandsche IJssel and friendly colleagues. 
 
You'll begin by detailing some Asana tasks for a teammate adjusting a job importer, then switch to PHPStorm (or your preferred IDE) to work on feedback for a merge request for WerkenbijDefensie.nl.
 
By lunchtime, you're ready for a break. Our chef has lunch waiting in the Radancy café. Post-lunch, you'll discuss a new API integration with an external partner and refine roadmap projects with UK and US colleagues.
 
The day ends with GitLab code reviews, but not for long - there's a team gaming and pizza night!
