At Avenga, we believe that human creativity empowers technology that matters. Operating globally, our 6000+ specialists provide a full spectrum of services, including business and tech advisory, enterprise solutions, CX, UX and Ul design, managed services, product development, and software development.

This is you

• 4+ years of professional experience as a PHP Developer (PHP 7.x preferred)

• Strong understanding of PHP fundamentals, including PSR-4 autoloading and general project structure

• Comfortable working with large legacy codebases, including procedural code and mixed coding styles

• Confident in debugging, tracing execution flow, and investigating issues in poorly documented systems

• Experience working in Linux environments:

  • Using SSH

  • Basic shell commands

  • Running PHP scripts via CLI

• Able to read and understand code written in other languages (especially Java) for workflow tracing purposes

• Familiar with cron jobs and background task execution

• Good command of English, at least at an upper-intermediate level

This is your role

• Maintain, debug, and extend a large PHP 7.4 codebase built without modern frameworks

• Investigate production and non-production issues by tracing logic through legacy and inconsistently structured code

• Execute, test, and validate application logic triggered by cron jobs, Camunda workflows, and PHP CLI scripts

• Collaborate closely with business teams, analysts, and developers to understand system behavior and undocumented logic

• Perform root-cause analysis and implement stable, reliable fixes

• Review logs, analyze system behavior, and resolve issues in a timely manner

• Follow and understand existing workflows implemented in Camunda (Java-based) processes (read-only, no Java coding required)

• Work together with team leads to gradually improve code quality and reduce technical debt
