Software Engineer (Laravel

About the role

This role centers on server-side implementation for digital products. The engineer delivers secure, scalable backend solutions while partnering with cross-functional teams to meet product objectives.

Software engineers turn product ideas into working code. Engineers work in small teams, review each other's work, and ship in small batches. Most teams follow agile practices such as sprints and daily standups. Engineers also write tests, fix bugs, and improve performance. The field values clear communication as much as technical skill. Engineers spend part of every week on planning, code review, and debugging, not just writing new code. The ability to explain a technical decision in plain words separates strong engineers from the rest.

Key facts

What you'll do

Server-side logic is implemented through Laravel and related PHP tools to power product features.

Digital workflows are enabled by building and maintaining RESTful APIs and backend services that connect databases, external services, and frontend interfaces.

Structured data handling is ensured by designing and optimizing relational schemas, writing efficient queries, and managing migrations with MySQL or PostgreSQL.

Reliable releases are supported by writing clean, maintainable, documented code and implementing unit and integration tests.

Laravel features such as queues, caching, and scheduling are used when integrating with third-party APIs, payment gateways, and internal services.

Requirements

The posting states a minimum of 3 years of experience.

Immediate or short-notice availability is prioritized for this role.

A Bachelor degree in Computer Science, Software Engineering, or a related field is required as the baseline education.

Professional backend experience with Laravel and modern PHP is expected to apply complex patterns.

Daily work requires strong understanding of MVC architecture, RESTful API design, and object-oriented principles.

Past projects should include hands-on experience with Eloquent ORM, query builder, migrations, and database optimization in MySQL or PostgreSQL.

Experience with authentication and authorization using Laravel Breeze, Passport, Sanctum, or similar tools is required.

The Laravel ecosystem must be understood well in terms of caching, queues, job scheduling, and event-driven development.

Beneficial skills include familiarity with frontend integration using HTML, CSS, JavaScript, and modern frameworks such as Vue or React.

Deployment and operations are supported by experience with Git, CI/CD pipelines, Docker, and cloud platforms such as AWS, Azure, or similar.

Efficient delivery relies on a strong grasp of software design patterns, clean code principles, and agile practices.

Issue resolution and collaboration depend on strong problem-solving skills, debugging ability, and communication.

Practical notes

On-site work is required across Bangladesh.

The schedule follows Sunday to Thursday.

Typical interview steps

Hiring for engineering roles usually starts with a recruiter screen, followed by one or two technical rounds. Candidates often solve a coding problem, discuss past projects, and answer system design questions. Some loops include a take-home task. Final rounds typically cover team fit and give candidates a chance to ask questions. Interviewers look for how you break down an unfamiliar problem, not just whether you reach the answer. Practicing a few problems aloud and reviewing your own past projects are the best preparation.

Good to know

Backend development in this role relies on server-side logic, database interactions, and API integrations.

PHP frameworks like Laravel promote rapid development through expressive syntax and built-in services.

Relational databases and query optimization are central to handling structured data at scale.

Modern web workflows often involve collaboration between backend, frontend, and DevOps teams.

Automated testing and continuous integration help maintain code quality and deployment stability.
