PHP Developer

PHP Developer jobs in Delhi at CryptoMize are open on a rolling, always-hiring basis — we staff platform capacity ahead of the next engagement, not after it lands. This is a full-time, permanent PHP Developer position with immediate joining, based at our New Delhi HQ, sitting inside the platform team that builds and maintains the backend services powering the firm's intelligence platforms across 18 countries. Below is the complete PHP Developer job description: the responsibilities you will own from day one, the requirements, the seniority path, and the selection process. Experienced PHP developers who want their code to feed real intelligence decisions — services that the analyst and OSINT cells run on every morning — should read to the end.

01The actual work

What will you actually do as a PHP Developer at CryptoMize?

01

Own the PHP backend services powering the intelligence platforms end-to-end — data pipelines, dashboard APIs, OSINT ingestion services, the operational backbone the cells run on

02

Set and enforce the platform's PHP engineering standards — code review discipline, test coverage, observability, the engineering hygiene the cells depend on

03

Design the service architecture for new platform capabilities — ingestion services, dashboard APIs, optimization passes — before implementation begins

04

Deliver the recurring platform products: weekly reliability reviews, monthly performance audits, quarter-scale platform narratives for leadership

05

Mentor platform interns and junior developers attached to your services (intern-to-platform conversion is a hiring channel you directly strengthen)

06

Sit in platform reviews as the PHP engineering authority — when leadership asks "can we ship this engagement support," you answer with the architecture and capacity analysis

07

Work at the backend center of an operation whose platform decisions feed political, reputational, and security work across 18 countries — your code becomes the operational backbone the analysts build on

ROLE RESPONSIBILITIES

As a PHP Developer at CryptoMize you will own backend services powering the intelligence platforms — data pipelines, dashboard APIs, OSINT ingestion services, the operational backbone the cells run on. The role applies rigorous engineering discipline before any service ships, because an unshipped capability is worse than no capability at all.

Code review and test coverage are standing duties rather than occasional tasks: most organizations discover engineering gaps when a service has already broken in production, but here platform engineers intercept them upstream — in the PR review, the test coverage gate, and the observability hook. You will maintain the documentation that lets any service we ship be reconstructed line by line, on demand, in front of the cells.
