This company is looking for an aspiring and talented LAMP stack web developer to help us extend and maintain our global commerce and logistics platform.

What they Do

We give small businesses the logistics resources of big businesses. We have built a unique and open platform that brings together international retailers, warehouses, suppliers, and shippers, and puts this global network at our customers' disposal, all from within a browser.

Our Ideal Candidate

You're an up-and-coming software engineer who loves what they do and enjoys solving novel, tricky problems.

You're eager to learn, not satisfied with the status quo, and self-motivated. You sweat the details.

Skills-wise, you're familiar with the LAMP stack, with an emphasis on OO PHP. Experience in web operations is a plus.

You'll make an impact by helping us maintain and extend our platform, toward making our customers and internal teams more successful and efficient. Your role will involve a combination of:

•Support engineering/triage
•Application maintenance and development
•Tools development

Here are some of the values that we think have made our team successful:

•Writing code that Simply Just Works
•Not being content with code just because it works
•Thinking big
•Planning big
•Planning for the worst case
•Keeping it simple as long as possible
•Keeping it fun
•Iteration
•Intellectual curiosity
•Persistence
•Customer commitment
•Team commitment
•Team input
•Candor
•Respect
•A desire to leave everything a little better than we find it

If these are your values, we'd like to hear from you.
