Job Description

Full Stack Software Developer
\\n
We are looking for a developer to join our team at Courier Express. Software products you build will reach all the way from the backbone architecture of the Courier Express headquarters to our furthest facility, directly affecting the capabilities and future direction of the company. From real-time ops management tools to customer portals, to large-scale business-to-business data transmission, you will learn to write software for many different needs of many different types of users. We are looking for someone who is willing to engage with users, uncover the root causes of problems, and then own the solution from planning through implementation.
\\n
While the bulk of the codebase is PHP, you will help choose the best technologies for each project from a deep toolbox. A mix of project sizes will keep things interesting; some will be small and self-contained, with little start-up friction and a rapid release, while others will be larger scale, carefully planned with many iterations. Many projects will involve modifying an existing system. The ability to debug code that someone else wrote is critical.
