We are seeking an experienced PHP/Symfony developer to help maintain and incrementally improve an existing Transportation Management System (TMS) used in the logistics industry.
This is a stable, production application that has supported our business for many years. We are not looking for a complete rewrite or migration to another framework. Instead, we are seeking a long-term technical partner who values pragmatic engineering and incremental improvements.
Current environment includes:
• PHP 7.2 • Symfony • MySQL 5.7 • nginx • Node.js • Linux / AWS
Initial priorities include:
• Upgrading and securing PHP and MySQL • Improving overall system stability and security • Addressing bugs and technical debt • Continuing gradual improvements to the platform
• Completing 1-3 desired integrations (API)
We highly value experience working with legacy PHP applications and older Symfony environments.
Ideal candidates:
• 8+ years of PHP experience • Comfortable working with mature codebases • Strong understanding of MySQL and Linux environments • Independent and proactive • Pragmatic problem solver • Excellent communication skills
Experience with logistics, transportation, SaaS platforms, or other operational software is a plus.
This is intended to be a long-term, part-time relationship rather than a short-term project. We value stability, maintainability, and thoughtful engineering over large-scale rewrites.
