A technical guide for CTOs and founders on vetting, interviewing, and integrating senior Laravel engineers.
Hiring a Laravel developer is easy; hiring an experienced Laravel engineer who writes scalable, maintainable code for a multi-year product roadmap requires rigorous architectural evaluation.
When evaluating Laravel developers, look beyond basic CRUD comprehension. Test for deep knowledge of database query optimization, queue workers, job serialization, and dependency injection patterns.
Ask candidates how they manage complex business logic that doesn't belong in Eloquent models or controllers. Top engineers will articulate the use of Action classes, Services, and Domain-Driven Design principles.
A senior developer knows when NOT to use Eloquent. In high-volume data ingestion or reporting pipelines, raw queries or chunks with database cursors prevent out-of-memory crashes.
