Lendha is a fast-growing fintech company dedicated to empowering SMEs through accessible

credit and financial management tools. We don’t just build apps; we build the infrastructure that

helps businesses thrive. We are looking for a Laravel Developer who treats code like a craft

and believes that quality is not an afterthought—it’s the foundation.

We are looking for a disciplined Backend Developer who lives and breathes clean code. At

Lendha, we don't "test later." You are someone whose default workflow begins with a failing test

(TDD). You should be a firm advocate for SOLID principles and DRY (Don't Repeat Yourself)

architecture, ensuring our codebase remains scalable, maintainable, and elegant.

While your primary focus is the backend, you understand that a great API is only as good as its

integration. Familiarity with modern frontend workflows allows you to build better contracts

between the server and the UI.

Key Responsibilities

● Architect & Develop: Design and maintain robust, scalable backend services using

Laravel.

● TDD Mandate: Write unit, integration, and feature tests as a primary part of the

development process.

● Clean Code: Apply SOLID principles to decouple logic and ensure the codebase is easy

to refactor.

● API Design: Build and document RESTful APIs that power our React-based frontend

applications.

● Optimization: Identify and fix bottlenecks, ensuring high performance and

responsiveness of the application.

● Collaboration: Partner with frontend engineers to ensure API responses align with

component needs.

Technical Requirements

Core Requirements (The "Must-Haves")● PHP Mastery: 3+ years of professional experience with PHP and the Laravel

framework.

● Testing Pro: Mastery of PHPUnit or Pest. You should be comfortable explaining why

TDD saves time in the long run.

● Design Patterns: Deep understanding of SOLID principles, Dependency Injection, and

Repository patterns.

● Database Mastery: Advanced knowledge of MySQL/PostgreSQL, including query

optimization and schema design.

● Tooling: Experience with Git, Docker, and CI/CD pipelines.

Bonus Points (The "Nice-to-Haves")

We don't expect you to build the UI, but we value "Frontend Empathy." Experience with the

following is a huge plus:

● React & TypeScript: Understanding how state management and types work on the

frontend to build better API contracts.

● Component-Driven Development (CDD): Familiarity with building UIs in isolation (e.g.,

Storybook) to understand how data is consumed at the atom/molecule level.

Soft Skills

● The "Lendha" Mindset: A proactive problem-solver who doesn't wait for permission to

improve a legacy module.

● Full-Stack Communication: The ability to speak the same language as frontend

developers to minimize friction during integration.

● Detail-Oriented: You care about the "small things" like naming conventions and

consistent API response structures.

Why Join Us?

● Opportunity to build impactful fintech products used by thousands of businesses.

● A culture that values technical excellence over "moving fast and breaking things."

● Competitive salary and growth opportunities.

● Flexible working environment.
