Hi, I'm Daniele, VP of Engineering at Airalo!
Engineering drives Airalo’s eSIM platform. We build the product that lets millions of people connect instantly across the globe. The challenges are exciting: high-scale systems, carrier integrations, and products spanning both B2C and B2B. What matters most to us is creating an environment where engineers can do their best work. Real ownership, autonomy, and a direct link between what you ship and business outcomes are key. You’ll work with smart, motivated people who take their craft seriously. If you want to build things that matter at global scale, this is where you do it.
Airalo’s fully remote Engineering team is growing. In this role, you'll tackle complex technical challenges across our product ecosystem, helping build, innovate, and scale the platform that keeps millions of travellers connected worldwide.
Are you a seasoned engineer who thrives on solving complex architectural puzzles in PHP? Join our team as a Senior Backend Engineer where you will lead the evolution of our global platform with more then 20 million users. We value deep technical mastery, a mentor mindset, and the ability to balance rapid innovation with system stability. While we use Laravel, we highly value the architectural rigor of seasoned Symfony experts ready to pick up Laravel and apply their skills to our ecosystem.
