PHP Developer - Senior/Middle
Help us expand our coverage of CMMS/EAM systems and step it up in unit testing
About Makini
Products of our customers solve real problems:
🤕 save workers on power plants from losing fingers.
🛢 prevent oil spills.
🏭 reduce fuel consumption on facilities to reduce emissions.
We exist to multiply their impact.
Before our customers can do business, their products need to interface with internal systems of their customers, most commonly EAMs - Enterprise AssetManagement systems. Building EAM integrations is hard: one will cost $30k -$500k and take up to 18 months to complete. As integrations are a part of onboarding, they make sales process slow and products expensive, ultimately limiting number of companies that can benefit from them.
Makini builds infrastructure that eliminates the need for individual EAM integrations altogether, and enables connections across systems –all via one, simple API. We make onboardings low-touch and entry price-points low, helping our customers get their products into hands of a much larger number of companies, and do it fast.
We exist to multiply the impact of our customers and take pride in solving complex infrastructure problems to free them up and concentrate on creating value, not building integrations.
About the role
You'll be the one helping us achieve this mission. As a Senior software engineer, you will be on the forefront of building systems into Makini API, expanding our footprint. You will own the full cycle, i.e. architectural decisions, API reliability, authentication, compatibility, performance, and maintenance. You will also contribute to the Company's operating principles and further scaling of the integration building. We've grown from 5 people to 50 over 2021 while growing ~100% MoM. Now is a great time to join Makini: we’ve hit PMF but are still somewhat small so people who join now still have an outsized impact on the business and the organization.
You will
• Produce quality and maintainable code while following best practices.
• Development and execution of unit testing scenarios between Makini’s backend and connected systems.
• Scaling scope of our API integrations.
• Support junior engineers and ensure adapters are delivered within specified timeline and as per the quality standards.
• Contribute to the Company's operating principles and further acceleration of integration building.
• Contribute performance metrics and project maintenance.
We are looking for
• Empathy towards users, Makini is a developer-centric product.
• A “Can-Do” Attitude: positive attitude and passion for learning in fast-paced environments.
• 3+ years of experience in PHP development (Laravel or similar framework).
• Experience with 3rd-party API integrations, excellent knowledge of REST and authentication protocols.
• Good knowledge of PHPUnit, Mockery and unit-testing methodologies.
• Experience with Node.js is a plus.
• Experience with AWS services (SQS, S3, Lambda) is a plus.
• English is a must.
