SFox Model is looking for the PHP Developer to join our Swedish client team in Ukraine.

Our customer’s company was founded 2018 as a spin-off from a Swedish research project at Lund University, which began in 2015. The challenge of working with open source and still being secure was brought up as an issue. To solve this, our client offer our own tool for managing vulnerabilities in dependencies.

You will be working alongside a mixed group of designers, front-end, full-stack and back-end developers. Team members collaborate closely, reviewing and helping each other throughout the development process, and implement modern best practices, e.g. test-driven development, consistent code-style etc.

They use the latest tools and technologies such as PHP 8.0 and Symfony 5.3 for the backend, and Vue.js for the frontend. Because they are a startup, each employee has a lot of personal freedom and responsibility, with the possibility of influencing the product development.

This is a full time long-term cooperation.

- 30 days of paid vacation

As a back-end developer, you will be working with large datasets covering all aspects of Open Source Software, ranging from vulnerability definitions to GitHub star scores.

You could be working on extending and improving one of our existing products, such as:

- an automation engine that allows the creation of highly custom rules that are then used to make assertions on every commit a developer pushes to their project
- an open database containing data on every repository on GitHub, including metrics such as popularity and contributions
- a tool that analyses call graphs from a project and identifies the usage of specific methods that have been implicated in security issues for a dependency

Or you could be creating an entirely new part of the service. Either way, you will have a big impact on our team and product.

**Required skills:**
- PHP
- Experience with a MVC framework such as Symfony or Laravel
- Git
- Comfortable with SQL

If you have any of these, some things will be more familiar, but either way we provide friendly onboarding to bring you up to speed.
