Responsibilities

- Design and develop scalable Laravel backend services

(PHP 8.x, Laravel 10/11).

- Build inventory & reservation flows

(seat/zone inventory, hold windows, anti-oversell logic).

- Implement and maintain payment workflows

(webhooks, reconciliation, refunds, idempotency).

- Own performance, reliability, and observability

: caching, queues, metrics, logs, alerts.

- Model and optimize databases for high read/write

(indexes, transactions, locking, query tuning).

- Collaborate with front-end/devops and participate in architecture decisions and code reviews.

- Write automated tests (unit/integration), ensure secure coding practices.

Must-have skills (non-negotiable for this project)

- Strong Laravel backend expertise (service layer, events/listeners, queues, jobs, policies).

- Deep understanding of transactions, locking, concurrency

, and preventing race conditions.

- Practical experience with

Redis

(cache + locks + rate limiting) and queues

(Horizon).

- Solid database skills (MySQL/Postgres): indexing, query optimization, schema design.

- Robust API design: REST best practices,



validation, versioning, auth (JWT/OAuth/Sanctum).

- Clean code, testing discipline, Git workflows, strong debugging skills.

Strongly preferred (big plus for ticketing)

- Real-time features:

WebSockets

(Laravel Echo/Pusher/Soketi) or SSE.

- Payments: Stripe integrations with webhook reliability

.

- Search / filtering at scale (Meilisearch/Elastic), CDN usage, image/ticket PDF generation.

- Experience with high-traffic launches / flash sales and traffic spikes.

- Familiarity with microservices or modular monolith architecture.

Nice to have

- Experience delivering AI/ML-adjacent projects (not required).

- DevOps comfort: Docker, CI/CD, basic AWS/GCP knowledge.

What success looks like (first 60–90 days)

- Stabilize/ship core flows

Reserve → Pay → Confirm → Issue ticket

.

- Reduce oversells to ~0 via correct locking/idempotency.

- Improve p95 latency and checkout reliability under simulated spike load.
