Spiral Media (Magento eCommerce Developers) | Lincoln, United Kingdom | Full Time | ONSITE

We're going through a period of fast growth, and looking for a full-time, on-site PHP developer to join our team of devs working on new-builds and with existing clients.

We specialise in Magento, so looking for someone with Magento experience, or at least an interest in learning and working with the platform.

The lesson here is you should always keep your own off-site backups - especially if you don't pay for a 'managed' server.

There will always be rare occasions such as this, but considering how many customers Namecheap handle, I don't think we should be seriously concerned. I'm pretty confident lessons will be learned.

Worth signing up for CloudFlare's free plan, and setting a page rule to 'Cache everything'. That should help you a lot!
