Senior Backend Engineer, Partner Integrations, PHP Symfony

£55k - £70k per annum
Full-time

Senior Backend Engineer, Partner Integrations, PHP Symfony

A fantastic opportunity for a Senior Backend Engineer to join a growing, integration-led SaaS company. This is a hands-on role for a true integration engineer who has repeatedly built and maintained connections with different external partners, rather than a general product engineer who has only occasionally connected third-party services. You will use PHP and Symfony to develop a portfolio of production integrations while also contributing to the company’s AWS infrastructure.

Location: Fully remote within the UK, although ideally you will be based near London. You must be available to travel to London for occasional team meetings and start work at 8:30am UK time.

Salary: £55,000 - £70,000 per annum. Additional paid weekend on-call rota, performance bonus and share options.

Requirements for Senior Backend Engineer, Partner Integrations:

  • Strong commercial experience developing production backend systems using PHP
  • Commercial Symfony experience within production applications or services
  • Proven experience personally building and maintaining multiple integrations with different external partners
  • Experience taking integrations through development, testing, launch and ongoing production support
  • Strong understanding of REST APIs, webhooks, OAuth, rate limiting, retries, idempotency, queues and asynchronous processing
  • Experience building connectors, adapters or transformation layers between different external systems
  • Experience monitoring production integrations and investigating failures involving both internal and partner systems
  • Meaningful production AWS experience, including containers, monitoring, infrastructure as code and incident response
  • Strong understanding of automated testing, code quality and CI/CD practices
  • Comfortable adapting integrations when partners change their APIs, schemas, credentials or platform behaviour
  • Experience working autonomously within a startup, scale-up, SME or small product engineering team
  • A pragmatic approach to engineering, with the ability to balance technical quality against commercial delivery requirements
  • Comfortable taking long-term ownership of integrations after launch
  • Experience within payments, travel technology, marketplaces, hospitality, accounting software, logistics, e-commerce, martech or another integration-heavy SaaS environment would be beneficial
  • Must be based in the UK with existing right to work. Visa sponsorship is not available

Responsibilities for Senior Backend Engineer, Partner Integrations:

  • Design, build and maintain a portfolio of integrations with external software platforms
  • Develop partner-specific connectors using PHP and Symfony
  • Translate different external data structures and behaviours into reliable internal formats
  • Take integrations through development, sandbox testing, launch and ongoing support
  • Maintain existing integrations as external APIs, schemas and authentication requirements change
  • Investigate production failures across internal services and third-party platforms
  • Build reliable integration workflows using webhooks, queues and asynchronous processing
  • Develop backend platform and API features across a microservices-based environment
  • Improve automated testing, observability and CI/CD quality gates
  • Contribute to the operation and development of the company’s AWS infrastructure
  • Participate in a paid weekend on-call rota supporting urgent integration issues
  • Contribute informed opinions to technical and architectural decisions as the platform grows

What this role offers:

  • Ownership of business-critical partner integrations within a growing SaaS company
  • The opportunity to influence integration architecture, engineering practices and the future direction of the platform
  • Excellent longer-term scope to take on wider technical and management responsibilities as the company expands
