Senior PHP Laravel Backend Engineer / ERP Architect – Scalable ERP & Microservices

About the Role

We are looking for highly experienced and technically strong PHP Laravel professionals who have hands-on experience developing large, highly scalable ERP systems and microservices-based applications.

For this position, we are not primarily evaluating candidates based on the number of years of experience. Our primary focus is on the quality, scale, complexity, architecture, and ownership of the projects the candidate has actually developed.

The ideal candidate should have worked on multiple enterprise-grade ERP projects, preferably 7–8 or more substantial ERP implementations/products, and should have hands-on experience in designing and developing scalable Laravel applications and microservices architectures.

This is a hands-on technical role. We are looking for someone who can understand complex business processes, design the backend architecture, develop scalable APIs, optimize databases, and contribute to the technical architecture of large ERP systems.

What We Are Looking For-

  • Must-Have Project Experience
  • Strong hands-on experience in developing large-scale and highly scalable ERP systems.
  • Candidate should have worked on multiple ERP projects/products, ideally 7–8 or more substantial ERP implementations.

  • Strong experience in Microservices Architecture and distributed application development.
  • Hands-on experience developing Microservices using PHP Laravel / Laravel ecosystem.
  • Strong experience in designing and developing RESTful APIs and backend services.
  • Experience in developing modular, scalable and maintainable ERP architectures.
  • Strong understanding of complex ERP business workflows, role-based systems, approvals, transactions, reporting, inventory, finance, HR, procurement, sales, etc.
  • Experience working with high-volume data, multiple users, multiple branches/sites/stores/business units, or similarly complex enterprise environments.

Technical Skills — Mandatory

  • Background jobs, queues, caching and asynchronous processing
  • Error handling, logging and monitoring
  • Understanding of application security and secure API development

Strongly Preferred

  • Experience breaking a monolithic ERP/application into microservices.
  • Experience designing service-to-service communication and API-based architectures.
  • Experience with Redis, queues, caching and event-driven processing.
  • Experience with Docker / containerized deployments.
  • Experience with AWS / Azure / GCP or similar cloud environments.
  • Experience with CI/CD and deployment pipelines.
  • Experience handling large datasets and performance-intensive ERP modules.
  • Experience working with distributed systems and third-party integrations.
  • Familiarity with React.js, Vue.js or another modern frontend framework is an added advantage.
  • ERP Experience Is the Primary Evaluation Criteria

We are particularly interested in candidates who have worked on ERP systems involving areas such as:

Finance & Accounting | Procurement | Inventory | Purchase | Sales | Warehouse | HRMS | Payroll | CRM | Projects | Manufacturing | Supply Chain | Multi-branch Operations | Multi-company Operations | Approval Workflows

Experience in Retail ERP, Manufacturing ERP, Construction/Project ERP, Supply Chain ERP, HRMS/Payroll ERP or other enterprise ERP platforms will be highly relevant.

What We Will Evaluate

Instead of evaluating candidates only based on their CV or total years of experience, we will primarily evaluate:

  • ERP Projects Delivered- How many significant ERP systems/products have you actually designed or developed?
  • Scale of the ERP- Number of users, branches, stores, sites, transactions, modules, integrations and overall system complexity.
  • Your Actual Contribution- Which parts of the project did you personally architect, develop and own?
  • Microservices Experience- Which projects were built using microservices? What services did you design/develop? How did those services communicate?
  • Laravel Expertise- How deeply have you worked with Laravel beyond basic CRUD development?
  • Architecture & Scalability- How have you designed the system to support increasing users, transactions, modules and business units?
  • API Development- What type of APIs and integrations have you developed and maintained?
