Backend Contract Opportunities

The Atlas

About us:
The Atlas (http://the-atlas.com/) is a free online community for state and local government officials who join to browse case studies, follow trending topics and post questions to crowdsource ideas and advice.

About the opportunities:
We have two remote open project-based contracts - both are integration related projects using our API and connecting to third parties.

Specifically, integration work between our Laravel 8 API, our parent company GEMG (https://govexec.com/), and a new CRM (salesforce, previously Hubspot).

The time frame to do the work is from mid/late February to end of March, with deliverables on 03/31.

Compensation will based on deliverables scoped and hourly rate.

Technical experience needed:
- Laravel framework
- MVC / CRUD
- PHP
- Connecting to and using APIs from within an API - auth, sending data, fetching
- An understanding of queues and async/cron jobs
- Email API and using dynamic templates (sending data to populate the email templates)
- Comfortable using terminal/setting up a local docker from documentation

Soft-skills required to be successful:
- Experience doing contracted work
- Good collaborative attitude and communication skills
- Ability to plan out tasks in more detail, gather some of the deeper requirements (like reading the documentation to connect to APIs)

More nerdy juicy bits:
We run on ubuntu, use nginx, php, mariadb, redis, hosting between AWS & Linode. We use Docker for local development; our FE is using nuxtJS, vueJS).
