Viva IT is an innovative and exciting fintech. We specialise in creating mobile app and web-based financial software. Although we have a fully remote workforce, we are centred in the East Midlands, UK.

We take an hybrid-agile approach to product development, forgoing the traditional vertical structure of management, meaning that even our newest developers will be given opportunities and encouraged to lead and learn.
We’re looking for software engineers who share our passion for code. We’re primarily a PHP team, but we’re strong believers that language doesn’t matter – the kind of software engineer we’re looking for will be able to create magic, regardless of the language however previous experience in our tools will be a bonus.
We use an array of tools, technologies and frameworks including:
PHP 7.4 and 8.x
Symfony 3.4, 4.4 and 5.x
MySQL
React
Javascript
PHPUnit
Git & GitHub
YouTrack
TeamCity
PHPStorm
Exposure to these tools is always favourable, but as an engineer we’re sure you’ll relish the opportunity to learn new technology and use new tools. We release multiple times a day through a fully automated release pipeline, this is development in the fast lane and there is no room to dawdle.
Ultimately, we want people who have a compulsion to solve problems, that thrive at being challenged, crave knowledge, aspire to be the best, a desire to deliver value, and most of all, people who have a real passion for the work. People just like us.

We consider all skill levels – hobbyists, graduates and experienced developers. It’s your attitude, potential and passion that matter.

Remote Work
The COVID-19 lockdowns accelerated our plans to become a remote-first company. Our team has transitioned fully to work-from-home and there are no plans to return to the office.

You can work typical office times 09:00 to 17:30 (we’ve not yet transitioned to full flexible working)
