PHP Developer

Job Description The University is in the middle of a major Student Information System (SIS) implementation targeted for the upcoming fall quarter. This is a high‑priority initiative with significant development activity leading into September. The PHP Developer will play a critical role in ensuring the existing business applications continue to function by remediating, reconnecting, and validating integrations as systems transition to the new SIS. This role is heavily backend‑focused and centered on PHP remediation work—repointing data sources, updating business logic where needed, and ensuring student‑ and staff‑facing applications remain reliable during and after the SIS cutover. We are a company committed to creating diverse and inclusive environments where people can bring their full, authentic selves to work every day. We are an equal opportunity/affirmative action employer that believes everyone matters. Qualified candidates will receive consideration for employment regardless of their race, color, ethnicity, religion, sex (including pregnancy), sexual orientation, gender identity and expression, marital status, national origin, ancestry, genetic factors, age, disability, protected veteran status, military or uniformed service member status, or any other status or characteristic protected by applicable laws, regulations, and ordinances.
