We pick from a large pool of developers we know personally, not from a bench. You see 2 to 4 candidates who already fit your stack and your codebase, and you choose. If instead you want us to build or rebuild an application for a fixed price, see Laravel development. If you need a whole group with its own PM, a dedicated team fits better.
Hire Laravel & PHP Developers
Your Laravel application needs another pair of hands, or someone to replace the developer who built it, and a local hire would take months. We find a Laravel or PHP developer who joins your team: works in your repository, your tracker and your sprints, reports to your tech lead, full time or part time, and is paid by the hour.
$45 to $65 an hour
What our Laravel developers do
-
01.
Laravel back ends
Eloquent models and relations, queues on Redis with Horizon, events, scheduled jobs and notifications, in service layers the next developer can read.

Pricing
$45 to $65 an hour
The rate depends on seniority (middle, senior or lead), on full time or part time work, and on niche skills such as large legacy migrations or heavy integration work. Compared with a local hire in the US or Western Europe, the cost is usually 40 to 60% lower.
You pay by the hour for the hours actually worked, on one monthly invoice. The rate covers selection, contracts, equipment, HR support, replacements and monthly reports. Hosting, Forge, Nova and your other tools and licences stay on your side.

FAQ
Which seniority do we need?
For upkeep and features in a codebase with clear rules, a middle developer is often enough. With no tests, no documentation or a risky upgrade ahead, a senior or lead pays off faster. We advise, you choose.
Can the developer work with our old Laravel version or plain PHP?
Yes. Tell us the versions and the main packages, and we shortlist people who have worked with similar legacy code.
Can they also handle the front end?
Many Laravel developers are comfortable with Blade, Livewire and Inertia with Vue. For a separate React or Vue application with a lot of work, a front end specialist is usually better.
What about time zones and hours?
Our developers are in Ukraine and Eastern Europe: 3 to 5 hours of overlap with Western Europe and 2 to 4 hours with the US East Coast. Most are flexible with hours and work well async.
What if the developer does not fit?
Tell us. We replace the specialist, organise the handover ourselves, and the tasks in your backlog keep moving.
Can we hire the developer in-house later?
Ask us. We discuss it case by case.
