Full stack engineer

Please note: this position is remote: while we are based in Belgium, we are looking for candidates living and working in Europe (±2 hours CET).

Company Description

Prezly is a remote-first SaaS company building the platform that communication teams around the world use to tell their stories. Every day, millions of people read content powered by Prezly - and behind that is a product that combines thoughtful UX with a powerful backend.

We're looking for a Full-Stack Engineer to help us build and improve both the frontend experience and the backend systems that power it.

This role is ideal if you're a strong, hands-on engineer who enjoys seeing features through from idea to production - from UI to database.

What you'll do

You'll work across the stack on the core Prezly product, building features that our customers use every day.

That includes:

• Building user-facing features in React and TypeScript
• Implementing backend logic and APIs in PHP (Symfony)
• Improving performance, reliability, and developer experience across the stack
• Collaborating closely with product and design to turn ideas into shipped features
• Shipping code continuously through our CI/CD pipeline
• Improving existing parts of the product through refactoring, bug fixing, and iteration

You'll be involved in the full lifecycle of features - from understanding a customer problem to shipping and refining the solution.

What we're looking for

We're looking for someone who is already productive as a full-stack engineer and ready to grow in a product-driven team.

You should bring:

• Around 3+ years of experience as a Full-Stack or Web Developer
• Hands-on experience with React and modern JavaScript/TypeScript
• Hands-on experience with PHP, ideally with Symfony or a similar framework
• A good understanding of HTTP, APIs, and relational databases
• The ability to work independently and take ownership of your work
• Near-native English (written and spoken) and comfortable working in a fully remote team

You don't need to know every part of our stack on day one - we care more about solid fundamentals and the ability and willingness to learn.

We're also strong believers in using AI-powered coding tools like Claude Code and Cursor - let us know if they're a part of your dev environment.

Our tech stack

Prezly runs a large-scale web platform built around:

• React + TypeScript on the frontend
• PHP (Symfony-based) services on the backend
• PostgreSQL
• CI/CD pipelines and a Kubernetes-based infrastructure (hosted on AWS)

Some parts of the stack are battle-tested and mature; others are actively evolving. You'll help shape how it grows from here.

How we work

We're a remote-first, high-ownership team.

That means:

• We focus on results and impact
• We expect people to take initiative and raise the standard
• We ship early, learn from real usage, and iterate
• We care deeply about our customers and their success

What we offer

• Competitive salary
• Home office budget to set up a workspace that works for you
• Your choice of equipment
• Flexible working hours
• 35 paid days off
• Team gatherings at our head office in Belgium, and across Europe to connect, collaborate, and have fun together.
• A high-trust, high-impact environment where your work truly matters

If you want to own part of a real product, work with people who care, and make something used around the world better every day - we'd love to hear from you. Apply for the job here: https://tally.so/r/LZpa5G
