If Magento 2 is an architecture you master rather than just a platform you configure, we need to talk.
eCommerce is in our DNA, and our Magento client portfolio keeps growing. That is why we are looking for a Magento Backend Developer to join WAM from wherever they choose: we work 100% remotely.
We are looking for a mid-level, highly hands-on profile with 2-3 years coding Magento 2 / Adobe Commerce in production, who already operates autonomously and wants to continue leveling up. You will not just be watching here: you will develop shoulder-to-shoulder with architects, frontend, QA, and project managers on real stores, with real traffic, and clients whose businesses depend on online sales.
What you will do (for real):
Development
- Develop and maintain backend features in eCommerce projects on Magento 2 / Adobe Commerce.
- Create and extend REST and GraphQL endpoints, and design custom features.
- Implement integrations with external systems (ERP, CRM, payment gateways...).
Quality
- Write unit and integration tests, and collaborate on joint testing with QA.
- Comply with practice quality standards and review code with sound criteria.
- Diagnose technical incidents using Xdebug and logs, identify the root cause, and propose solutions.
Team
- Collaborate with frontend, QA, and project managers to make everything fit together.
- Participate in technical requirement analysis alongside architects and project managers.
- Document your developments in a clear and updated manner.
- Lend a hand to junior profiles with their technical questions.
We grow with you, we take care of you:
- Flexible schedule: Work-life balance.
- 100% remote work, but if you feel like it at any point, we have offices available in Madrid, Valencia, and Barcelona (yes, there is coffee and fruit too).
- Salary band: €30K–€40K gross per year.
- Day off on your birthday, as well as December 24 and 31.
- Equality Plan.
- Flexible compensation with Cobee.
- Professional development plan.
- Intensive working hours: Fridays until 3:00 PM; summer (06/22–09/11) and Christmas (12/21–01/08) from 8:00 AM to 3:00 PM.
Essential (if it does not fit your profile, this is not your role):
- Between 2 and 3 years developing in Magento 2 / Adobe Commerce on real production projects.
- Intermediate English: reading technical documentation, participating in technical meetings, and communicating in writing (tickets, PRs, Slack) with international teams or clients.
- PHP 8.x, with strong command of object-oriented programming, common design patterns, and PSR standards.
- Magento 2 architecture: dependency injection, plugins (interceptors), observers, preferences, service contracts and repositories, EAV model, declarative schema, data/schema patches, cron, and message queues.
- Magento APIs: creating and extending REST and GraphQL endpoints.
- MySQL: complex queries, basic optimization, and understanding the Magento data model.
- Performance layer: Varnish, Redis, OpenSearch/Elasticsearch, and RabbitMQ.
- Automated testing with PHPUnit (unit and integration) and PHPCS with the Magento Coding Standard.
- Composer, Git (branching workflow and pull requests), Magento CLI, and Docker environments (Warden or similar).
- Debugging with Xdebug and log reading to diagnose issues autonomously.
Bonus points if you have:
- Adobe Certified Professional / Expert – Adobe Commerce Developer certification.
- Experience with Adobe Commerce Cloud or own infrastructure (AWS, DigitalOcean).
- Experience with CI/CD pipelines and zero-downtime deployments.
- Knowledge of Hyvä frontend, sufficient to collaborate with the frontend team.
- Experience in migrations from Magento 1 to Magento 2 or major version upgrades.
