ShipMonk is the world's largest 3PL for high-growth e-commerce and DTC brands. Since our inception in 2014, we've operated with a singular guiding principle: to help small and medium-sized e-commerce businesses scale by offering technology-driven fulfillment solutions that enable business founders to devote more time to the things that matter most in their businesses. Put simply, ShipMonk helps e-commerce companies stress less and grow more.

Headquartered in Fort Lauderdale, FL, ShipMonk has more than 2,500 employees across facilities in Fort Lauderdale, FL, Pittston, PA, Los Angeles, CA, Bay Shore, NY, Las Vegas, NV, Louisville, KY, Fort Worth, TX, Mississauga, Ontario, Canada, Tecate, Mexico, the United Kingdom, and Prague, Czech Republic.

We are ShipMonk, and we provide logistics services in order fulfillment. Our main business is in the USA, but our modern platform is built by the Product Development team in Prague.

Here at ShipMonk, we process up to 100,000 orders per day in our peak season. Our book of business has more than 1,500 clients which are small and medium e-shops, mostly based in the US. We offer the ShipMonk platform as the solution for the whole process. It covers everything from stocking the items to shipping the ready packages to all corners of the world!

Job Overview

We are looking for a skilled PHP Developer to join ShipMonk! This is an exciting opportunity to join our Product Development Team.

Tech Stack:

  • PHP 8.3

Our teams:

  • In addition to static analysis, we also do a two-round review and the operation is also verified by the QA team and E2E cypress tests.
  • We have more than 15,000 database integration tests with independent datasets for each test.
  • We directly automate the agreed coding-rules and have written dozens of custom phpstan rules.
  • We consider concurrency and design the application to withstand race conditions.
