Build dedicated engineering capacity with deep PHP and Laravel expertise. Every GBF engineer is assessed across 6 disciplines: Technical Fundamentals, AI Development Skills, Architecture & Design, Quality & Testing, DevOps & Delivery, and Communication, before joining your team. They bring strong PHP ecosystem experience but are validated as complete engineers, not just framework specialists. As AI now writes most of the code, their real work is directing it, reviewing and testing every change, and owning the result you ship.

How we build now: AI-directed, engineer-owned

AI now writes the majority of production code. Our engineers direct it, review and test every change, own the architecture and security, and stay accountable for the result.

The stack is where they have depth. The value is judgment and ownership of AI-generated output, validated across our 6 screening disciplines: fundamentals, AI skills, architecture, quality, DevOps, and communication.
