We are looking for an experienced Full Stack Developer to build and ship features end-to-end using Laravel and Flutter. You will work on a live SaaS platform used by businesses across India, owning everything from database design to mobile app release.

About the Company

Dhanode is a lead-to-revenue platform used by businesses across India. It integrates CRM, lead pipeline management, WhatsApp and email automation, ads automation, and reporting. The company is headquartered in Pune with a small, focused team building products that go live in front of paying customers every month.

Role Overview

We are looking for a Senior Full Stack Developer (5-7 years experience) to work on both sides of our stack: the Laravel backend and the Flutter mobile app. This is not a maintenance job. Whatever you build will go live in front of real users within the same month. You will work directly with the founder and own features from a short brief to production release.

Key Responsibilities

1. Take a feature from a short brief to live — you decide the database design, the API structure and the app flow, then build it.
2. Build and ship new Laravel modules — lead pipeline, automation flows, reports, roles and permissions.
3. Write clean REST APIs for the app — token auth (Sanctum/Passport), validation, versioning, proper error responses.
4. Build the same features on the Flutter side — screens, state management, API integration, offline and slow-network handling.
5. Handle queues, cron jobs and background workers (Redis / Horizon) for bulk sends and heavy reports.
6. Push notifications with FCM — token handling, deep links, delivery status.
7. Third-party integrations: WhatsApp Business API, Meta Graph API, payment gateway (Razorpay / Cashfree), Google APIs.
8. Fix slow queries — indexing, eager loading, optimising tables that have lakhs of rows.
9. Release builds on Play Store and App Store, handle store rejections and version updates.
10. Review the junior developer's code before it goes live, and give your own timelines and hold them.

Tech Stack

• Backend: Laravel 13, PHP 8.5
• Database: MySQL 9.6
• Mobile: Flutter (Dart) — Android and iOS
• Other: Node.js 22, Redis queues, REST APIs, Git
• Server: Ubuntu + Nginx, behind Cloudflare
• State Management: Provider, Riverpod or Bloc
• Local Storage: Hive, SQLite, SharedPreferences
• Push: Firebase Cloud Messaging (FCM)
• Payments: Razorpay / Cashfree
• CI/CD: Basic deployment on Ubuntu

Must Have (We Will Test This)

• 4 to 5 years hands-on Laravel — Eloquent relations, queues, events, middleware, service classes. Not only CRUD. You should be able to tell us about one thing you made faster and how.
• A live Flutter app on Play Store that you built AND kept updating over versions. One-time build with someone else maintaining it is not enough.
• Strong MySQL — joins, indexing, transactions, and the ability to say why a query is slow before checking.
• REST API design and security — auth tokens, rate limiting, input validation, handling failed and repeated requests.
• Flutter state management (Provider, Riverpod or Bloc) plus local storage (Hive / SQLite / SharedPreferences) and API caching.
• Git — branches, pull requests, handling merge conflicts.
• Comfortable on a Linux server — read logs, deploy, restart services.
• Able to work without daily hand-holding, and ask the right question when the brief is short.

Good to Have

• Multi-tenant SaaS experience
• WhatsApp Cloud API or Meta Ads API
• Node.js
• Docker
• Real-time features (WebSockets / Pusher)
• Basic AWS or DigitalOcean

Please Do NOT Apply If

• Your PHP work is mostly WordPress or plugin work.
• Your Flutter work was only UI screens with dummy data, no API layer.
• You cannot show live projects or code.
• You have 5 years on paper but the same 1 year repeated five times.

• Own full features end to end, backend to app, not small tickets.
• Direct work with the founder. Decisions happen the same day.
• Real users, real data, real load — not a demo project.
• Competitive salary with performance-based growth.
