About the team

Kiloverse is the operational force that helps ventures grow — building the systems, teams, and infrastructure that turn ideas into scalable businesses. Behind every fast-growing product, there’s a group of people who think like owners, act fast, and execute with precision.

Here, you’ll find people who want to break big in their careers — working side by side with entrepreneurs and founders to build ventures that redefine the health, wellness, beauty, or travel industries.

Get ready to

• Work with modern backend tech and help shape a scalable, secure, and reliable e-commerce platform

• Build high-quality backend systems using PHP (Laravel or Symfony) - but we're open to strong engineers with other backgrounds

• Take ownership, make architectural decisions, and influence how our backend evolves

• Design clean APIs and work closely with the frontend team (React/Next.js)

• Optimize performance, security, and infrastructure reliability

• Collaborate with product, operations, and frontend engineers

• Mentor others, delegate tasks, and help grow our backend team

• Improve development processes and engineering standards across the platform

We expect you to

• Bring strong backend engineering fundamentals - clean architecture, design patterns, testing

• Have solid experience with PHP, ideally Laravel or Symfony (or be confident you can pick them up fast)

• Be comfortable working beyond your “exact role” and taking initiative across the stack

• Be able to navigate and design complex business/domain logic

• Write reliable tests and follow best engineering practices

• Work autonomously - from system design to deployment and optimization

• Have a curious, open-minded approach and willingness to explore better solutions, not just follow existing ones
