We’re looking for an Intermediate Developer to join our passionate team! In this role, you’ll work on a system that enables businesses to seamlessly connect with their customers through appointments, lobby queuing, and third-party integrations.
At Coconut Software, Intermediate Developers are independent, resourceful, and thrive in a collaborative environment—learning, mentoring, and continuously seeking ways to improve our software. You’ll take initiative in discussions on design, code reviews, and best practices, helping to shape the development process. Beyond writing high-quality code, you’ll also support Junior Developers, sharing knowledge and fostering a learning culture across all levels of development. As you grow in this role, you’ll gain deeper insights into how development outputs align with Coconut’s broader business goals and strategy.
We don’t expect you to be an expert in PHP (Laravel) or React, but we do expect a curious mindset, a willingness to learn, and a passion for building great software. If you're eager to grow within a fast-moving team, you’ll have our full support on this journey.
Engineering @ Coconut:
- We innovate on top of a modern solution stack consisting of web technologies (such as React and Laravel) utilizing a RESTful architecture, and backed by relational DBs (MariaDB and PostgreSQL) and deployed using Docker in an AWS environment.
- You don’t need to be an expert in our specific stack: we’re great at teaching good developers how to use our modern SaaS stack (but a good foundation in OOP and Web Components definitely helps!)
- We don't follow rigid Scrum, but we do work in an agile, iterative way, and try to continuously improve and implement what works for us
- We work in a blameless culture and have a continuous improvement mindset
