IFGlobal works with ecommerce brands across the UK, Europe, and the US, helping them manage fulfilment across multiple sales channels including Shopify, Amazon, eBay, WooCommerce, and retail.
Our internal platform, BladePRO, powers the operation behind the scenes. It handles everything from order routing and warehouse workflows to stock management, reporting, integrations, and customer tools.
Because the platform is built and maintained in‑house, engineers here have real influence over how things are designed and improved. There’s plenty of scope to shape systems, contribute ideas, and work on problems that are more interesting than standard feature delivery.
The role
You’ll work across both backend and frontend development, helping us improve and expand the platform as the business grows.
The work is varied and often quite complex. You could be working on real‑time inventory syncing between warehouses, improving integrations with couriers and marketplaces, building internal operational tools, or helping scale systems during peak trading periods.
We’re looking for someone who’s comfortable taking ownership, contributing to technical discussions, and working closely with the wider team to deliver reliable software.
You’ll also support mid‑level and junior developers through code reviews and day‑to‑day collaboration.
What you’ll be doing
* Building and maintaining features across our Laravel backend and Angular/TypeScript frontend
* Taking ownership of work from planning through to deployment and support
* Working on integration‑heavy systems with real operational complexity
* Collaborating with product, operations, and data teams to solve practical problems
* Reviewing code and contributing to engineering standards across the team
* Mentoring and supporting other developers
* Improving testing, deployment processes, monitoring, and platform reliability
* Contributing to architecture discussions and technical documentation
What we’re looking for
Essential
* Around 7+ years of commercial software engineering experience
* Strong experience with PHP and Laravel
* Strong frontend experience using Angular and TypeScript
* Solid understanding of modern JavaScript development
* Experience designing and working with REST APIs
* Good understanding of relational databases, particularly MySQL
* Experience working on systems with complexity around integrations, concurrency, or large volumes of data
* Comfortable communicating with both technical and non‑technical stakeholders
* Previous experience mentoring or supporting other developers
Desirable
* Experience with Go
* Experience with Google Cloud Platform
* Background in ecommerce, logistics, fulfilment, or supply chain systems
* Experience with event‑driven systems or message queues
Tech stack
Backend: PHP (Laravel), Node.js, Go
Frontend: Angular, TypeScript, Electron, PWAs
Data: MySQL, Redis, Elasticsearch, BigQuery
Infrastructure: GCP, Kubernetes, Cloud Pub/Sub
Monitoring & Analytics: New Relic, PostHog
Hybrid Work Setup
We work in a hybrid setup with two days per week in our Bournemouth office. Our engineering team is spread across the UK and offshore locations, so we collaborate regularly across different time zones and work closely as a distributed team.
