AISG-0425 PHP Developer

Aachen, Germany

Who we are:

We are ABAKUS IT-Solutions – a down-to-earth, international IT services company that has been supporting businesses in Germany, Belgium, and Luxembourg for over 30 years. We believe IT should make people’s lives easier, and that’s exactly what we work on every day.

And yes, we’re looking for real team players who want to make things better. No rockstars. No ninjas. No gurus. Just developers who know their craft and enjoy what they do.

Why we need you:

You will be permanently employed by us, but your main mission will be to support our clients. You won’t just develop and maintain internal applications and intranet systems used daily by hundreds of employees—you will also help take our clients’ digital platforms to the next level.

We need you because these projects require reliable, clean, and solution-oriented development. Because the client needs someone who thinks, not just executes. And because we’re looking for someone who thrives in a long-term, stable project environment and is ready to take on real responsibility.

In short:

You strengthen our team—and at the same time move our client’s systems forward, both technically and functionally.

What you’ll do:

  • Develop, maintain, and modernize web and database applications
  • Bring the client’s intranet and internal tools to the next level
  • Handle administrative tasks in the development environment
  • Think ahead, build solutions, document, and test to ensure long-term reliability
  • Work closely with colleagues across different disciplines
  • And ideally, think outside the box from time to time

Your toolkit:

Must-haves:

  • PHP 7/8
  • Object-Oriented Programming (OOP)
  • HTML5, CSS3
  • MySQL/MariaDB
  • Basic knowledge of JavaScript
  • Interest in clean architecture and long-term code quality
  • Good working proficiency in German
  • Degree in Computer Science, vocational training (e.g. Fachinformatiker AE), or equivalent experience

Nice-to-haves:

  • Symfony or Laravel
  • Git, CI/CD
  • Linux
  • Experience with CMS systems
  • Ability to work independently with enthusiasm

What we offer (no exaggeration):

  • A permanent home at ABAKUS – with exciting client projects
  • A long-term, stable work environment with real responsibility
  • A team that is technically strong but remains human
  • The opportunity to modernize systems instead of just keeping them alive
  • Training that you actually need - not just what looks good on paper

We’re not perfect, and neither are you:

  • Because we believe great solutions come from asking questions—not from pretending to be perfect
  • Because we value responsibility, but don’t expect flawlessness
  • Because we’re looking for colleagues who are willing to take ownership
  • Because we want motivated talents from the Aachen region to grow with us—step by step, not overnight

Sounds like you?

Then just send us your CV - no novel, no motivational poetry.
