Flightradar24 is looking for a Full-stack Developer who is equally happy to work with back-end code as with front-end code. You will play an important role in modernizing and developing the Flightradar24 website, and your work will improve the experience of millions of users every day.

What you’ll do

• Collaborate with a small team of developers and product owners on developing new features for the Flightradar24 website and related services

• Participate in knowledge sharing and mentoring for other developers in your team

Who you are

• At least 4 years experience of modern web development
• Extensive experience with back-end web development in PHP7 and also REST API development and integrations
• Strong plus for experience developing public REST APIs leveraging OpenAPI 3.x and modern versions of frameworks like Laravel, Symfony, Lumen, and Slim
• Knowledge of current web technologies including JavaScript frameworks like Vue.js, ES6, HTML5, CSS3, and tools like Webpack
• Knowledge of responsive design practices, delivered cleanly and consistently across a wide variety of platforms, browsers and devices
• Natural focus on high standards and quality, automated testing, unit tests, and CI/CD practices
• Experience with high-performance web delivery, caching, and/or cloud (AWS) and DevOps practices is a strong plus
• Strong written and spoken English

Note that this is a remote position or hybrid remote (for candidates in Stockholm, Sweden), but we would like you to be located within a 3-hour time difference from Central European Time (CET/CEST) to align your working hours with the rest of the team.
