Software Engineer II - Laravel/Vue

Hi, we’re TechnologyAdvice.

At TechnologyAdvice, we pride ourselves on helping B2B tech buyers manage the complexity and risk of the buying process. We are a trusted source of information for tech buyers, delivering advice and facilitating connections between our buyers and the world’s leading sellers of business technology. 

Headquartered in Nashville, Tennessee, we are a remote-first company with more than 20 digital publications and over 500 global team members in the US, UK, Singapore, Australia, and the Philippines. We’re proud to have been repeatedly recognized as one of America’s fastest growing private companies by Inc., as well as a Tennessee top workplace. We work hard each day and have fun, too, with monthly virtual events, recreational slack channels, and the occasional costumed dance from our CEO.

All positions are open to remote work unless otherwise specified in the requirements below. 

The opportunity

Are you looking for a great career with a growing company where you can make an impact and be part of an exciting team? If building proprietary software that integrates with our 30+ high traffic websites sounds like an ideal job for you, you've found the right place.  TechnologyAdvice has grown rapidly over the past 3 years and is projected to continue growing throughout 2024.  We’re looking for a Software Engineer II who can support our software development and architecture as we build new solutions to scale with our company’s growth.  

As a Software Engineer II, you’ll write code, and review the code of others to maintain software that our engineers and users love.  You’ll be expected to be a strong contributor on the team while helping to enhance the talent of your teammates.  You’ll work under the technical leadership of senior and staff engineers to help develop new software projects following industry and team best practices.

We are looking for people who love creating software, who dream in JavaScript, who enjoy pushing Python and PHP to its limits, and who will constantly make our technology better.  We have an “always learning” culture driven to improve as both individuals and as a team. When you’re not creating or maintaining business-critical software systems,  you might be in a technical book club, or possibly playing a game or two of ping-pong. We are a Scrum-based Agile team that strives to deliver business value quickly. Our ideal candidate must maintain a high level of ownership and see assignments through to completion.
