DocuSign PHP Developer Jobs

DocuSign integration roles for PHP developers involve connecting web applications with the DocuSign eSignature API to manage and automate document signing workflows. These positions are crucial for businesses in sectors like real estate, finance, and legal services that rely on secure and legally binding electronic signatures. A developer in this role will build the bridge between a company's internal systems, often built with PHP, and DocuSign's powerful platform.

Responsibilities in DocuSign Integration

The primary responsibility is to design, develop, and maintain seamless integrations. This includes creating user interfaces for sending documents, tracking their status, and securely storing the completed, signed documents. Developers often work with the DocuSign eSignature REST API to manage envelopes, recipients, and templates programmatically. A key part of the job is handling webhooks (DocuSign Connect) to receive real-time updates on a document's lifecycle, such as when it's viewed, signed, or completed.

Essential Skills and Technologies

To succeed in a DocuSign-focused PHP role, a developer needs a strong skill set beyond core PHP. Key competencies include:

• Proficiency with consuming RESTful APIs and handling JSON or XML data payloads.
• A deep understanding of authentication and authorization protocols, specifically OAuth 2.0 JWT Grant, which is used to securely obtain access tokens.
• Experience with the official docusign/esign-client PHP SDK to simplify API interactions.
• Familiarity with modern PHP frameworks like Laravel or Symfony, as integrations are typically built within larger applications.
• Knowledge of secure coding practices to handle sensitive documents and user data.
