[Hiring] Senior Full Stack PHP Developer @Restaurant Supply

Role Description

We are looking for a Senior Full Stack PHP Developer to own the architecture and development of our product catalogue and quoting platform. This is an opportunity to build a new product from the ground up, establish its technical foundations, and shape how we manage and present complex product information at scale. The platform will power our product catalogue and quoting capabilities, bringing together product information from manufacturers and other sources into a structured, reliable, and scalable system.

Your primary focus will be product information management (PIM), data modeling, large-scale data ingestion, and building a maintainable, monitorable, and scalable application. You'll design systems that can ingest, normalize, validate, and manage millions of product records while supporting accurate product information and flexible quoting functionality.

You'll work primarily with PHP and Symfony on the backend, using caching, queues, and asynchronous processing to support reliable performance at scale. You'll also build web crawling and scraping capabilities, develop REST APIs, and contribute to a modern JavaScript frontend using React. This is a hands-on engineering role. You'll own both architecture and implementation, working alongside our existing developers and collaborating with colleagues responsible for reviewing product data.

We're looking for someone who combines strong technical judgment with attention to detail, curiosity, and a sense of ownership.

Qualifications

• At least 5 years of professional software development experience.
• Expert-level hands-on experience with PHP 8 and Symfony.
• Proven experience building or maintaining product information management (PIM) systems, product catalogue platforms, or comparable product data platforms.
• Experience designing and operating large-scale data ingestion pipelines, ideally involving 1 million or more records.
• Strong data modeling skills and deep experience with relational databases such as PostgreSQL and ORM frameworks such as Doctrine.
• Hands-on experience with asynchronous processing, message queues, and background jobs.
• Strong knowledge of caching systems such as Redis.
• Experience building reliable web crawling and scraping systems.
• Solid experience designing and consuming REST APIs.
• Practical experience with production monitoring, logging, error tracking, and troubleshooting.
• Strong problem-solving skills and the ability to take ownership of complex technical challenges.

Requirements

• Experience building quoting, CPQ (configure, price, quote), or product configuration software.
• Experience working with complex ecommerce product catalogues, manufacturer data, or product feeds.
• Experience with React and modern JavaScript development.
• Experience with automated testing and CI/CD pipelines.
• Familiarity with AI-assisted product data enrichment or classification.
• Knowledge of commercial kitchen equipment, foodservice supplies, or the broader equipment distribution industry.
• Comfortable using AI coding tools to improve development productivity.

Personal Qualities

• Exceptional attention to detail, particularly when working with complex product data.
• Analytical and systems-oriented thinking.
• Creative problem-solving and a willingness to challenge inefficient approaches.
• Strong sense of ownership and accountability.
• Ability to learn new systems and business domains quickly.
• Collaborative working style and openness to feedback.
