Your future contribution

As a Software Engineer (PHP), you will join the team behind HomeToGo's revenue platform, which sits at the centre of the company's financial operations, from the revenue earned across its brands to the money exchanged with its partners. The platform is deeply integrated with Salesforce, SAP and partner systems. Teams throughout the company depend on its output, which makes understanding the business processes a part of your job. You will work with rich domain logic, enterprise integrations and the engineering discipline that keeps a critical platform reliable, observable and easy to evolve. You will take ownership of features and see them through to production, in direct collaboration with business and technical stakeholders across the company. The team is experienced and values solid engineering, effective feedback and honest conversations about trade-offs.

What you'll tackle first

How you’ll add value

• Implement and evolve the rules that determine what the company earns and what it owes its partners, based on requirements from business stakeholders
• Build and maintain the API- and event-based integrations that keep the platform consistent with Salesforce, SAP, payment systems and booking providers, in close collaboration with engineering teams across HomeToGo
• Extend the platform with LLM-based tooling, from MCP servers that expose its data safely to business teams and AI agents, to agent workflows that automate operational work.
• Deliver trustworthy data to Finance and Business Intelligence, from the exports that feed the data warehouse to the alerting and quality checks around them
• Replace manual financial workflows with automated, tested processes, in collaboration with the teams who run them today
• Keep the platform reliable and observable, using Grafana, Prometheus and Kibana to monitor it in production, respond to incidents, find root causes and turn recurring problems into lasting fixes
• Work across a set of applications written in modern PHP on Symfony 7 and 8, backed by MySQL, Redis and RabbitMQ, deployed on Kubernetes alongside AWS managed services
• Take part in the platform's technical evolution, including completing its move to Kubernetes, regular framework and dependency upgrades as well as the retirement of legacy components
• Take ownership of your features from refinement to production, and take an active part in code review, planning and retrospectives

You’ll be successful in this role if you

• Have 2+ years of professional backend development, in PHP and Symfony or in another object-oriented language with the willingness to make PHP your main one.
• Have solid knowledge of relational databases: schema design, transactions, indexes and the ability to reason about a query plan.
• Have practical experience with LLM-based tools, both as a user in your daily engineering work and as a builder: MCP servers, agent frameworks such as Google ADK, or comparable projects of your own.
• Write tests as part of your normal workflow, and a serious attitude to static analysis and code review.
• Are willing to work directly with business stakeholders and to invest time in understanding their processes as thoroughly as the code that supports them.
• Are able to explain technical decisions to people outside engineering, and to ask precise questions when a requirement is unclear.
• Feel interested in continuous learning as a habit, whether that means a new tool, a new part of the business or a better way of working the team has agreed on.
• Are fluent in English, spoken and written. The team works daily with colleagues across Europe and beyond. 

• Experience building and consuming APIs, and some exposure to asynchronous or message-based processing with RabbitMQ, Kinesis, SQS or similar.
• Hands-on experience with Docker, Kubernetes and AWS managed services.
• Familiarity with Grafana, Prometheus, Kibana or a comparable monitoring stack.

What we offer

• Career of growth opportunities and promotions, 360 feedback, performance evaluation system, and mentoring from an international and distinguished team
• Culture of empowerment, trust, recognition, autonomy and quarterly transparency about company goals. A focus on work-life balance, combined with consistent collaboration and support from a team of 30+ nationalities
• Compensation of attractive salary, health insurance, additional holidays, flexible working hours, language courses, employee-led workshops, office perks, frequent team building and company events, business trips to Berlin
