Today we are building a culture where AI-driven development is the standard. Currently we are seeking a PHP Software Engineer with hands-on experience using AI tools.

In this role, you will be responsible for developing and improving high-load edtech applications with a strong focus on leveraging AI tools and AI-assisted workflows. We are actively integrating AI into our development, testing, documentation, and product processes — and we expect you to be a key driver of this transformation. You will actively use modern AI instruments to increase development speed, improve code quality, automate routine tasks, and optimize product decisions.

Responsibilities:

• Develop and maintain scalable web applications.

• Use AI tools for code generation, refactoring, debugging, test creation, and documentation.
• Research and implement AI-based solutions to improve internal processes and product functionality.
• Collaborate with the team to integrate AI tools into CI/CD, QA, analytics, and support workflows.
• Contribute to building AI expertise within the company (share knowledge, experiment, propose improvements).

Requirements:

• 1–3 years of experience in software development with PHP & Symfony.
• Strong understanding of backend development principles and web application architecture.
• Practical experience using AI tools in software development workflows.
• Ability to effectively formulate prompts and evaluate AI-generated outputs.
• Experience integrating third-party APIs (including AI APIs) into applications.
• Understanding of software quality practices (testing, code review, documentation).
• English level: Intermediate or higher (ability to quickly read and understand documentation).
• You strive to be proactive and responsible for your tasks, lead discussions and contribute your ideas, without waiting for instructions.

Nice to have:

• Experience building features powered by LLM APIs (OpenAI, Anthropic, etc.).
• Experience with cloud platforms (AWS or similar).
• Experience with containerization (Docker).
• Understanding of prompt engineering techniques.
• Experience automating workflows using AI tools.

Working with us means:

• Supportive and professional team environment that encourages innovation, knowledge sharing, and the use of cutting-edge technologies including AI.

• Hybrid work format (Minsk office, 5 minutes from the subway).

• Enjoying a dynamic work environment, where you'll be empowered with diverse tasks and the freedom to make decisions.
• Taking part in corporate events that bring the team together and strengthen team spirit.
• Accessing select corporate perks and discounts.
• Working hours 11:00-20:00.
