Job Description

Build Real Things. Grow Fast. Make an Impact.Junior Full Stack Developer — GiftogramWe're Giftogram

Since 2012, we've been quietly building something people actually love: a profitable B2B rewards and gifting platform trusted by everyone from scrappy nonprofits to Fortune 500 brands. We've put hundreds of millions of dollars into the hands of grateful recipients — and we're accelerating.

We're a team that runs on creativity, optimism, and integrity. If you're someone who's curious by default, motivated by ownership, and energized by the idea of shipping code that real people use every day — keep reading.

The Opportunity

This isn't a "make coffee and close tickets" junior role. You'll write production code, work across the full stack, and be taken seriously from day one. You'll work directly with experienced engineers who are invested in your growth, and you'll have a clear path to becoming a well-rounded, confident full stack developer.

You'll report to the Director of Engineering and collaborate closely with product designers and fellow developers on features that ship.

What You'll Work On

• Writing, testing, and debugging frontend and backend code in React & PHP
• Contributing to real features — not just bug fixes — across the full stack
• Troubleshooting issues and iterating on existing systems with senior engineers by your side
• Participating in standups, code reviews, and team discussions
• Maintaining technical documentation as the product evolves
• Learning and applying best practices around code quality, testing, and clean architecture

What You BringRequired:

• A degree in Computer Science, IT, or a related field — or equivalent hands-on experience (bootcamp, self-taught, side projects all count)
• 0–2 years of professional experience or meaningful project work
• Comfort with modern JavaScript and frontend development concepts
• Some experience with React or a comparable JS framework
• Basic exposure to backend development — PHP, SQL, or similar
• A working understanding of REST APIs and how the two sides of the stack talk to each other
• Familiarity with object-oriented programming
• A growth mindset: you take feedback well, ask good questions, and want to keep getting better
• Clear communication and genuine team-player energy

Bonus points for:

• Experience with Laravel or another MVC framework
• Any exposure to testing — QA, unit tests, integration tests, or all of the above
