Full Job Description

We are seeking a Senior Laravel Developer to work On Site in Bloomfield Hills with a minimum of 5+ years of professional experience building, maintaining, and scaling production web applications. This role requires deep expertise in Laravel, API design and integration, database architecture, and system-level thinking. The ideal candidate will be capable of owning projects end-to-end, mentoring junior developers, and collaborating closely with DevOps, product, and security teams.

This is a senior role for someone who understands not just how to write code, but why architectural decisions matter in real-world, production environments.

Key Responsibilities

Application Development & Architecture

Design, develop, and maintain high-performance Laravel applications in production environments
Architect scalable, maintainable systems using Laravel best practices
Write clean, testable, well-documented, and maintainable code
Lead architectural decisions around application structure, service layers, and data flow
Refactor legacy systems and optimize existing codebases for performance and scalability

API Development & Integrations

Design and implement RESTful APIs and/or GraphQL APIs
Integrate with third-party APIs (OAuth, webhooks, rate-limited APIs, signed requests, etc.)
Build secure API authentication and authorization mechanisms (JWT, OAuth2, API keys)
Ensure API reliability, versioning, error handling, and documentation

Database Design & Data Modeling

Design and maintain relational database schemas (MySQL / PostgreSQL)
Create efficient data models, migrations, indexes, and relationships
Optimize complex queries and improve database performance
Understand transactional integrity, locking, and concurrency concerns
Experience with large datasets and production-scale databases

DevOps & Deployment (Plus)

Assist in or own deployment workflows (CI/CD pipelines)
Work with Docker, Docker Compose, and containerized environments
Experience with Linux servers and cloud infrastructure (AWS, DigitalOcean, Azure, etc.)
Configure and maintain environment-specific application settings
Understand application monitoring, logging, and alerting
Collaborate with infrastructure and security teams to ensure uptime and reliability

Security & Best Practices

Implement secure coding practices and follow OWASP guidelines
Manage authentication, authorization, and role-based access control
Secure APIs, user data, and sensitive configuration values
Participate in security reviews and remediation efforts

Leadership & Collaboration

Mentor junior and mid-level developers
Perform code reviews and enforce coding standards
Collaborate with product owners, designers, and stakeholders
Participate in technical planning, estimations, and roadmap discussions
Take ownership of deliverables and deadlines

Required Qualifications

5+ years of professional Laravel development experience
Strong mastery of PHP 8+ and the Laravel ecosystem
Proven experience building production-grade APIs
Deep understanding of MVC architecture
Advanced experience with MySQL and/or PostgreSQL
Strong knowledge of:
Eloquent ORM
Queues & background jobs
Events & listeners
Caching (Redis, Memcached)
Authentication & authorization
Experience working with Git and collaborative workflows
Ability to troubleshoot complex production issues
Strong communication and documentation skills

Preferred / Bonus Skills

DevOps experience (CI/CD, Docker, cloud hosting)
Experience with Redis, RabbitMQ, or other message queues
Familiarity with Vue.js, React, or modern frontend stacks
Experience with microservices or service-oriented architectures
Knowledge of API security, rate limiting, and abuse prevention
Experience in regulated or security-sensitive environments
Background in cybersecurity or infrastructure-heavy systems

What We're Looking For

A senior-level engineer, not a junior or mid-level developer
Someone who can own systems, not just tickets
Strong problem-solver with real-world production experience
Detail-oriented with a focus on long-term maintainability
Comfortable working in fast-moving, technically demanding environments

Location & Work Environment

Location: Bloomfield Hills, Michigan
On-Site
Collaborative engineering environment with real ownership and impact

Compensation

Competitive salary based on experience
Performance-based growth opportunities
Opportunity to work on complex, real-world systems

Job Type: Full-time

Laravel: 5 years (Required)

Ability to Commute:
