They replace outdated systems with smart hardware and provide full onboarding and training. Their platform powers operations, integrates with NHS services, and supports robotics. Overview Our client is looking for a Principal PHP Software Engineer to take a leading role in their engineering team. You’ll be hands‑on with their Laravel‑based backend, while also guiding architectural decisions, mentoring engineers, and driving technical excellence. You’ll collaborate closely with company directors (technical and non‑technical), support staff, and key partners like NHS England and NHS Digital to deliver mission‑critical features, integrate with complex healthcare protocols, and help mature the company’s engineering practices. Beyond development, you’ll play a vital leadership role, supporting junior team members, championing testing and automation, and introducing robust DevOps and CI/CD processes. Key Responsibilities Lead backend development in our Laravel PHP monolith, owning major projects end‑to‑end. Upgrade and modernise somewhat out‑of‑date PHP framework codebases. Introduce best practices and modern tooling. Mentor and coach junior developers, helping grow the team.
