Comfortable working with Python (for scripts, services, automation)
Strong understanding of REST and GraphQL APIs
Experience with Docker, Git, and CI/CD workflows
Familiarity with Unix/Linux environments
Comfortable working in Agile teams (Scrum or Kanban)
You use or are eager to use AI tools like GitHub Copilot, ChatGPT, Cursor, or n8n to speed up development
Independent mindset, but collaborative by nature

Bonus points:
Experience with Shopify, HubSpot, or other CMS/backend integrations
Experience integrating tools like FluentCRM, Moloni API, or Stripe / RevenueCat
Knowledge of caching, performance tuning, or serverless functions

A stack you’ll enjoy: Laravel, Python, React, WordPress, Tailwind, Next.js
Room to learn, grow, and propose new ideas
Yearly team meetups and monthly dev talks
A flat structure where your voice matters
We’re fast, friendly, and focused on building great things with great people
Why Buzzvel?
We believe in clean architecture, meaningful automation, and using AI to amplify human talent — not replace it.

We’re fast, focused, and fun to work with.
