The Role

About this position

Opportunity

The Context

About a year ago, we started a small, independent team inside ILIAS Solutions.

No big legacy. No heavy structure. Just a few people, a lot of ideas, and the freedom to build things the right way.

That team is still small. Still young. And that’s exactly why this role matters.

Your mission

The Kind of Person We’re Looking For

You don’t need 5+ years of corporate experience. But you do need to have spent a lot of time actually building things.

We’re looking for someone who:

  • Has built projects outside of school or work (and can show them)
  • Has some real-world experience (internship, freelance, first job…)
  • Gets energy from turning ideas into working software
  • Cares about doing things well, not just making them work

If your GitHub tells a better story than your CV, you’re exactly who we want to talk to.

What You’ll Be Doing

You’ll be working on real products, used by real users, at real scale.

  • Building applications in Laravel (Filament = big plus)
  • Thinking about performance from day one (fast queries, clean APIs, scalable structures)
  • Contributing to how we design and structure systems
  • Improving UX, not as a designer, but as someone who cares how things feel
  • Working closely with a small team where decisions happen quickly

This is not a ticket-factory role.

You’ll have space to think, suggest, and shape.

Your capabilities

What Helps You Stand Out

  • You’ve built multiple projects (side projects > school projects)
  • You’re comfortable with:
  • Laravel & PHP
  • APIs and databases
  • You’ve experimented with:
  • React (nice to have)
  • Docker
  • You think about:
  • Performance
  • Clean structure
  • User experience

And most importantly: You like figuring things out, even when it’s messy.

What You’ll Grow Into

This role will stretch you.

You’ll learn how to:

  • Build systems that actually scale
  • Think beyond code (architecture, users, trade-offs)
  • Work in a high-trust, low-bureaucracy environment
  • Take ownership earlier than most junior roles allow

Why This Is Different

You’ll join a small, real team, not a big machine We’re still shaping how we work. You’ll be part of that.

You’ll build, not maintain legacy Modern stack, clean thinking, no unnecessary baggage.

You’ll have impact early Your work won’t disappear in a backlog, it will be used.

You get the best of both worlds Startup energy, backed by a stable company that’s been building for 30+ years.

Shape your own career path within a truly international company. Meet many cultures, chances to travel the world and constant learning.

How to Apply

A CV is a good start, but we care more about:

  • Projects you’ve built
  • Code you’re proud of
  • Things you’ve tried, failed at, improved

This isn’t just another dev job.

Our software supports missions where failure is not an option, people’s lives depend on it.

While other developers fear AI replacing them, you’ll learn to stay ahead and grow into someone who directs it
