Hire PHP Developers
A CV Tells You Less Than A Codebase
Anyone can list Laravel, Symfony and MySQL. What matters is why they chose one over the other, what it cost and what they did the day it broke in production. That's what we screen for before you ever meet them.

What You Get When You Hire Through Us
Hiring a PHP developer yourself means sourcing, screening and hoping. We've done that part already, so the engineers you meet have been through the same technical review our own projects go through.
Vetted on real work
Every engineer works through a scenario from a live codebase, not a whiteboard puzzle. We look for a method: reproduce, narrow, fix, verify.
Senior enough to argue
You want someone who'll tell you an index is missing before they add a cache. We hire for judgment first and frameworks second.
Productive in days, not months
They join your board, your standups and your review rules from week one, so the ramp up happens inside your process rather than beside it.
Cover for when it goes wrong
Timeouts, duplicate charges, stale caches and a 3am error rate spike. Production experience is part of the bar, not a bonus.
Services
What Our PHP Developers Handle
From building new applications to modernizing legacy systems, our PHP developers can step in wherever your project needs them.
Greenfield applications in Laravel or Symfony, designed around your domain rather than a starter template.
Version jumps, framework migrations and the slow retirement of code nobody wants to touch, done without freezing your roadmap.
REST and GraphQL services, queue backed jobs, webhooks and the retry logic that keeps a slow third party from taking you down.
Query plans, indexes, N+1 hunting, caching layers and the profiling that tells you which one you actually need.
Magento, Drupal and WordPress work where catalogue, checkout or editorial workflow is the product.
Dockerised environments, CI/CD pipelines, logging, metrics and rollbacks you can trust at the worst moment.
Built Around Your Needs
Ways To Hire
Dedicated teams
Need a whole PHP team, not one hire?
We stand up a team that owns your platform end to end and stays with it. One point of contact, one delivery plan and engineers who remember why last quarter's decision was made.
Software outsourcing
Would you rather hand over the whole project?
We take the build from scope to launch and give it back documented and deployable. You keep direction while we carry delivery.
Staff Augmentation
Just need to plug a gap on your team?
One or two senior PHP engineers inside your existing process, reporting to your leads. Scale up when the roadmap grows and back down when it doesn't.
Frequently Asked Questions
It depends on the seniority and the shape of the role. Tell us the date you need someone working and we'll show you who is genuinely available then, rather than who looks best on paper.
Yes, and we'd rather you did. We shortlist and screen, you run your own technical conversation and you make the call. Nobody joins your team without your yes.
No. Tell us what the system has to do, who maintains it and how long it needs to live. We'll recommend Laravel, Symfony or staying on what you already have, then explain the tradeoff.
