Full-stack Laravel and Vue.js Developer

Scalable Path is looking for a Full-stack Laravel and Vue.js Developer. This is a remote, part-time position (approximately 4 hours/day). The client is also open to candidates who are available full-time.

CLIENT COMPANY DESCRIPTION:
The client is a digital wellness companion for adults living with and recovering from cancer. They curate content, discussions and events for their community, and soon will release features that allow members' friends and family to invest in their healing through a socially responsible e-commerce marketplace.

Although our purpose is incredibly serious, our approach is not. You could say that memes are our love language, and our internal Slack channel is a reflection of the refreshing new product we're building to bring more joy to the cancer experience.

They are an early-stage startup -- created by a solo founder and 25-year cancer thriver -- that launched in February 2020. They are currently a small team, but already have strong advisors, investors, and partners on board and thousands of people who champion their mission.

DUTIES AND RESPONSIBILITIES:
As a full-stack software engineer, you will help the client to build high-quality, engaging, and empowering features that help cancer thrivers better cope with cancer through community support. Since July 2019, they have built four core features that will provide their community with content, conversation, a social tool, and a marketplace to serve as a companion to heal their mind and body in treatment and recovery. As they test and roll out these features, they'll iterate and improve the experience.

The client is looking for a developer who is adept at writing maintainable and reusable components using VueJS and writing backend APIs in Laravel with code that is reliable, readable, and uses best practices. You will be responsible for building and deploying the whole stack, outlined below. The initial project involves work refactoring and improving existing code built by a third-party team, to ensure the backend and front-end are secure and in optimal condition for users and admin to launch the community features, before building and releasing new features and improving community functionality.

They are looking for someone with Laravel experience (using Laravel 8). The frontend app is a Vue.js-based SPA so experience with Vue is a must.

There is a weekly standup call and daily standup on Slack.

RELATIONSHIPS - WHO YOU'LL BE WORKING WITH:
You will be working with and reporting to the founder and CEO who will be acting as the Product Owner and working alongside a U.S.-based senior developer. The client is in the America/Chicago (-05:00) CDT time zone.

START DATE:
As soon as possible.

EXPECTED CONTRACT DURATION:
The project is expected to last approximately 3 months (and could become longer term if things go well)
