Vila Nova de Gaia, Porto, Portugal Curiouz Tempo inteiro

At 
Curiouz
, we're building the tech backbone of the vintage furniture world – a platform that connects the best dealers on the planet with design lovers and trade buyers, while making circular design easier, smarter, and more transparent.

We're now looking for a 
Back End Developer
 to help us scale our marketplace, integrate with key tools (like Shopify), and power logistics and verification systems that sit behind the scenes of every beautiful piece that goes live on Curiouz.

If you love clean, reliable code 
and
 the idea of giving second (and third) lives to design icons, keep reading.

What you'll work on

You will be responsible for building and maintaining the "invisible" side of Curiouz – the APIs, integrations, and services that make the platform feel simple for our users:

  • Develop and maintain back-end services in 
    PHP (Laravel)
  • Design and optimise 
    MySQL
     data models, complex queries, and performance
  • Build and consume 
    REST APIs
     used by our front end, internal tools, and partners
  • Implement and maintain 
    system integrations
     (internal tools, logistics, payments, etc.)
  • Work with 
    GraphQL
     and 
    Shopify integrations
     to support our marketplace and B2B flows
  • Contribute to and maintain 
    automated tests
     to keep our platform stable as we grow
  • Support deployment and hosting workflows (
    Cloudways
    , 
    Vercel
    ) and help improve our CI/CD practices
  • Collaborate closely with our product, front-end, and operations teams to turn real marketplace needs into robust technical solutions

What we're looking for (hard skills)

You'll be a great fit technically if you have:

  • Solid experience with 
    PHP
     and the 
    Laravel framework
  • Strong 
    SQL/MySQL
     skills: data modeling, complex queries, and query optimisation
  • Experience with 
    REST API
     development and integration
  • Experience with 
    system integrations
     (third-party services, internal APIs, etc.)
  • A strong foundation in 
    logic and algorithms
  • Experience with 
    GraphQL
     and 
    Shopify integrations
  • Familiarity with 
    Cloudways
  • Knowledge of 
    automated testing
     (e.g. PHPUnit, Pest or similar)
  • Experience with deployment and hosting on 
    Vercel
     (or similar platforms)

What we'd love (soft stuff)

  • You're curious by nature – you like understanding the "why" behind a feature, not just the "what".
  • You care about 
    code quality
     and long-term maintainability, not just quick fixes.
  • You're comfortable working in a fast-moving, early-stage environment with changing priorities.
  • You communicate clearly and proactively with non-technical teammates.
  • You're excited by design, culture, and/or sustainability (or at least a bit intrigued)

Why join Curiouz?

  • Help build the go-to platform for vintage furniture
  • Work closely with founders and have a real say in technical and product decisions
  • Be part of a small, ambitious, and very human team
  • Join a mission that blends technology, design heritage, and circular economy

How to apply

Send us:

  • Your CV
  • Links to GitHub or any relevant code samples (if available)

Stay curious – and if this sounds like you, we'd love to hear from you
