Do you want to love what you do at work? Make a real impact? Help shape experiences that transform how people connect, celebrate, and engage with events?

Are you excited to work with a team that challenges the status quo, breaks away from the ordinary, and builds what's next?

If yes, you're in the right place.

webook.com is one of the leading event ticketing and experience platforms, known for its innovation, agility, and ability to scale. We've powered some of the largest events in the region, with over 2 billion SAR in ticket sales and now we're expanding globally. 

Role Overview:

 As a Senior Full Stack Engineer, you will own features end-to-end across the stack from React/TypeScript consumer ticketing experiences through to the Laravel/PHP services and APIs that power them. You will work on high-traffic, production-grade systems where correctness on critical paths genuinely matters, while mentoring other engineers and contributing to technical direction. 

Key Responsibilities: 

  • Own features end-to-end across frontend and backend from design to production for consumer ticketing experiences: event discovery, seat selection, cart, and checkout flows. 
  • Build and maintain React + TypeScript frontends alongside Laravel / PHP backend services, including the REST APIs that connect them. 
  • Own high-risk paths payments, coupons, wallets, rewards, seat holds, OTP/auth with the testing, security, and error-handling rigor they demand. 
  • Develop shared domain libraries (ticketing, payments, auth) consumed across every app your changes ripple platform-wide. 
  • Architect and optimize database schemas, caching, and performance strategies across SQL/NoSQL and MongoDB. 
  • Design, secure, and scale RESTful APIs and backend workflows for high traffic. 
  • Contribute to the internal design system and component library, and ship white-label ticketing sites for partners (sports clubs, motorsport, venues) from shared templates. 
  • Troubleshoot production issues and improve system reliability and observability. 
  • Review code, mentor junior and mid-level engineers, and raise overall engineering quality. 
  • Contribute to technical documentation and architecture diagrams, and collaborate with Product, QA, and Operations on sprint and roadmap execution. 

Tech Stack 

Frontend: Modern React + TypeScript in a large monorepo, built primarily on Vite (with some Next.js apps). Tailwind CSS with a shared component library for UI, and i18next with full Arabic / RTL support. Testing with Vitest and React Testing Library. 

Backend: Laravel / PHP, MongoDB and other SQL/NoSQL databases, RESTful JSON APIs, and cloud platforms. Observability and analytics through standard industry tooling. 

Requirements

  • Bachelor’s degree 
  • 5+ years building production web applications, with substantial hands-on experience across both frontend and backend
  • Strong experience working in Agile/Scrum environments, with 5+ years delivering in agile teams, working closely with Product Owners and Delivery Leads 
  • Strong React + TypeScript skills, including solid server-state management caching, invalidation, optimistic updates. 
  • Strong PHP / Laravel skills with a deep understanding of REST API design and security
  • Experience with SQL and/or NoSQL databases, including designing schemas and data flows. 
  • Strong Tailwind CSS skills and comfort working within a component/design system rather than ad-hoc styling. 
  • A high-signal testing mindset: you write tests that catch real regressions in critical flows (checkout, cart, auth), not coverage padding. 
  • Proven experience owning features end-to-end on production-scale systems
  • Clean Git/PR habits and the ability to work within architectural constraints in a shared codebase. 
  • Strong written and verbal communication skills in English. 

Strongly Preferred 

  • Experience in a monorepo (Turborepo, Nx, or Yarn/PNPM workspaces). 
  • Internationalization and RTL (Arabic) experience. 
  • Familiarity with payments / e-commerce checkout complexity (payment methods, coupons, wallets, totals/VAT, refunds). 
  • Experience building or maintaining a shared component library and Storybook. 
  • Comfort with both Vite and Next.js patterns; awareness of framework-agnostic library design. 
  • Accessibility fundamentals (semantic HTML, ARIA, keyboard nav). 
  • Experience with caching, performance tuning, and scalability
  • Hands-on cloud experience (AWS, GCP, or Azure) and Docker / container-based deployments. 
  • Familiarity with CI/CD pipelines, automated testing, and deployment workflows. 
  • Familiarity with monitoring, logging, and alerting tools.
