Company: Payzer
Website: https://payzerware.com

As a Senior Application Developer, you will be responsible for designing, coding, testing, and perfecting a variety of web applications that service our customers. Our technical stack is traditionally LAMP, but we are moving toward a microservices architecture that allows a mix of “best tool for the job” technologies. As a growing company, we have many opportunities to create/enhance our product offerings, and as such you will have the chance to work both individually as well as with teammates to utilize your technical talents. Our Application Developers also assist with production support needs, although only as a second or third tier. You will be asked to help solve production problems, but it will not be an overwhelming task time-wise.

Benefits

What we offer

Though we develop products delivered over the Internet, as a nearly 10 year-old profitable company, we're not quite a startup anymore.
