Start with the work

Hire PHP experience that fits your application

Match the framework and the work

A Laravel product, a Symfony API and a WordPress commerce site call for different experience. Share your current stack and the changes you need. We build the shortlist around the application and delivery responsibilities, not a list of every PHP framework.

Protect the workflows customers use

For commerce or customer portals, discuss checkout, authentication, integrations and data changes. Review regression testing and staged releases. Ask candidates how they would verify an important workflow before and after a change.

Include the work behind the interface

Queues, scheduled jobs, database queries and deployments can matter as much as visible features. Include those responsibilities in the brief. Review how candidates monitor failed jobs, investigate slow requests and keep the application maintainable.
