About XANALIFE Pharmacy & Supermarket
XANALIFE Pharmacy & Supermarket is building a technology-enabled retail health platform that integrates pharmaceutical services, FMCG retail, and operational analytics into one cohesive ecosystem. We are engineering a connected retail engine where inventory, finance, procurement, POS, and customer intelligence operate in real time with accuracy and discipline.
The Opportunity
We are seeking a Senior Software Developer with deep Laravel and PHP expertise to architect and scale the systems that power our multi-branch operations. The role requires technical maturity, architectural clarity, and enterprise integration experience; particularly across ERP platforms and core operational systems.
What You Will Own
Core Platform Architecture
- Lead backend engineering using Laravel as the primary framework.
- Architect modular, service-oriented systems designed for scale.
- Design database structures that support operational accuracy and financial integrity.
- Make principled decisions balancing performance, cost, and maintainability.
ERP & Enterprise Integrations
- Architect and manage integration with ERP systems (inventory, finance, procurement).
- Design secure APIs that synchronize POS, accounting, supply chain, CRM, and third-party services.
- Ensure transactional consistency and reconciliation across systems.
- Implement real-time and scheduled synchronization logic.
- Establish structured data governance and validation protocols.
Performance & Reliability Engineering
- Optimize query performance and indexing strategies (PostgreSQL/MySQL).
- Implement intelligent caching strategies (Redis, in-memory, queue workers).
- Design systems for predictable uptime and graceful failure handling.
- Embed logging, monitoring, and performance telemetry into production systems.
DevOps & Delivery Discipline
- Operate within Dockerized environments.
- Contribute to structured CI/CD pipelines.
- Maintain strict environment segregation (development, staging, production).
- Support stable, frequent releases with rollback and observability safeguards.
Technical Leadership
- Mentor engineers and elevate coding standards.
- Translate operational complexity into structured engineering execution plans.
- Partner with operations and finance leaders to design systems aligned to real business workflows.
- Drive engineering discipline, documentation clarity, and architectural consistency.
Technical Profile
Core Requirements
- 5–8+ years building production-grade systems.
- Advanced proficiency in Laravel and PHP (core stack requirement).
- Demonstrated experience integrating ERP and enterprise platforms.
- Strong relational database design experience (PostgreSQL/MySQL).
- RESTful API architecture and secure authentication patterns.
- CI/CD pipelines and containerization (Docker).
- Cloud infrastructure experience (AWS, Azure, or GCP).
Advantageous Experience
- High-transaction retail or health-tech platforms.
- Payment gateway and financial system integrations.
- Event-driven architectures or distributed system design.
- Multi-branch operational systems with inventory synchronization logic.
- Lead backend engineering using Laravel as the primary framework.
