Location: New York City (Manhattan)

Summary

Vector Media Group is looking for a full-time PHP web developer in the New York City area to join our team immediately. We’re a growing interactive agency near Union Square in Manhattan with great clients (like The Economist, Nielsen, New York City, and Woot.com) and an incredible roadmap.

Our development projects are typically built on PHP (the LAMP stack) and are often CodeIgniter-based. You don’t need to know CodeIgniter to join our team, as long as you're experienced with another MVC framework (such as Laravel, CakePHP, or Zend). And given the range of work you'll be doing, you'll never get bored. We need someone who loves keeping up-to-date on the newest advancements in the field and can figure out when to start applying those advancements to client work. (For example, on a recent project one of our developers realized that MongoDB woul! d be a perfect fit â€" so he learned MongoDB and implemented it into the project.)

You’ll be a member of our backend development team, working closely with our other fantastic front-end and backend developers during every phase of your projects. You’ll also be communicating directly with clients to understand their requirements and present your work. Your job will be fun, challenging, and interesting.

You’ll be working on 2-3 projects at any time; typically one large project and a few smaller projects so you don’t get burned out. And you’ll work on the perfect development system: a huge monitor and a new computer of your choice.

Responsibilities Will Include:

• Implementing and improving websites built on PHP/MySQL-based CMSes and frame! works.
• Working with CSS/HTML layouts and templates. Yo! u don’t need to be a designer.
• Working closely with our front-end development team on site projects. We’ll want and expect your input on the best ways to structure the build â€" from start to finish.
• Building internal products and tools.
• Staying up-to-date on the latest development technologies and methodologies.

Benefits

• Flexible hours and paid vacation policy
• Lunch paid for by the company, every day, via your own Seamless account
• Health, Dental, and Vision insurance
• Retirement plan with matching
