Life at Drimify

We asked our team what behaviours and motivations they thought helped them and future teammates thrive at Drimify:

Be heard - Employees' feedback indicated that the team values the fact that their ideas and opinions will always be heard, and everyone has a voice.

Figure it out - As an early-stage scaleup life at Drimify comes with limited structure. Our teammates thrive in this environment and enjoy the fact that each role comes with a wide scope, where you will frequently face new problems to solve.

Push the limits - More than a job, scaleup life can be tough, our teammates each have their own motivations for being here, but they share the fact that they are bought into the big picture, eager to learn lots along the way to help us get there.

Make an impact - We want to deliver WOW. Our team is full of individuals who love to go above and beyond in the pursuit of excellence both in and out of the workplace.

The role

Drimify are looking for a talented Software Developer to join our team, who will be responsible for building all Drimify experiences, ensuring they are intuitive and beautiful.

This is an exciting opportunity for a Full-Stack Developer to join the platform team where you will be focused on back-end work 70% of the time, and front-end work roughly 30% of the time. We are looking for a candidate with strong back-end skills, particularly in PHP (frameworks such as Laravel or Symfony) and WordPress (working with Advanced Custom Fields – ACF).

Additionally, the candidate should possess solid front-end skills, including the ability to implement UI mockups and designs using CSS (native, Bootstrap, Tailwind CSS). This role requires more than just the ability to work with pre-made templates, as custom development is a key aspect of the job. You will be working on the Drimify platform, integrating new experiences and features, as well as the Drimify dashboard. This role is perfect for someone confident in development work across the whole stack, who can work closely with our co-founder and CTO, and the existing Software Engineers and Product Teams.

Role Responsibilities:

  • Confident and proficient in modern PHP 7+ development
  • Experience with Laravel or Symfony
  • Experience with WordPress including the ACF plugin
  • Experience with GIT and Bitbucket
  • Experience with RESTful API’s
  • A good working knowledge of front-end build tools, including: npm, SASS
  • Able to work with raw HTML, CSS, and JavaScript
  • Excellent verbal and written communication skills
  • Experience with project management tools (Jira) and web-based applications (Gmail, Google Docs, Dropbox…etc)

Drimify is committed to being an inclusive and diverse place to work. The excellent work produced at Drimify would not be possible without bringing together all of the different backgrounds, experiences and skills that our team has. We treat every employee equally, and fairly regardless of age, disability, gender, marital status, race, religion, or sexual orientation. It is vitally important that each of our team members feels confident, comfortable, and empowered.
