Job Description

More than 2,000 organisations trust our comprehensive customer relationship management (CRM) tools, access control systems, online booking management and point of sale with deep payment platform integrations.

The Role

Xplor Gym are recruiting for a full stack software engineer with 3+ years of commercial experience in PHP and React. Are you a team-player, motivated to make a difference, and looking for your next exciting career move?  We are a provider of fitness club management software, supporting thousands of gyms and health clubs across Europe.

In your role you will develop backend (including secure APIs) and frontend solutions that support the UK growth of Resamania. You will design and implement features within our microservices-based PHP product that uses Symfony, event-based architectures and modern database technologies. We build our frontends in React and need someone with a good understanding of this technology.

You will get the opportunity to collaborate with other Xplorers across our Fitness and Wellbeing product range as well as in Xplor Pay, our global payment services platform.

You should have experience of working within an agile team, understand test-driven development, be at-least familiar with the concepts of CI/CD or DevOps, and be ready to support automated QA professionals.

As our headquarters for Resamania is in France, proficiency in French would be preferred but not essential.
