What our clients say

Why hire Laravel developers through Match.dev?

PHP powers over 75% of the web, from WordPress and WooCommerce to enterprise Laravel and Symfony applications. Our vetted Laravel developers build scalable REST APIs, content management systems, e-commerce platforms, and SaaS backends. They work with modern PHP 8+ features, Composer, PHPUnit, and integrate seamlessly with MySQL, PostgreSQL, Redis, and cloud infrastructure.

Match.dev Laravel engineers are not just coders — they architect maintainable systems with clean MVC patterns, automated testing, and CI/CD pipelines. Whether you need a Laravel specialist to build your API, a WordPress expert for a custom plugin, or a legacy PHP codebase modernized to current standards, our 10-hour vetting ensures production-ready quality from week one.

Laravel developer rates in 2026

PHP has the widest talent pool and the widest rate spread: $30–100/hr covers most of the market, with strong Laravel seniors at the top of that band. We list vetted seniors at a published $50–80/hr.

Experience levelTypical market rateVia Match.dev
Junior (0–2 yrs)$20–50/hr
Mid-level (2–5 yrs)$50–90/hr
Senior (5+ yrs)$30–100/hr$50–80/hr, published

Two kinds of PHP work dominate: new product development on Laravel or Symfony, and modernizing legacy codebases that still run real businesses. Our assessment covers both muscles — clean greenfield architecture and the discipline to refactor without breaking production.

How it works: you describe the role, we hand-pick candidates from the vetted pool, and you get first profiles within 48 hours. Every engineer has already passed a 10-hour paid assessment on a real-world project. There are no fees until you hire — and you get a $150 credit just for attending the intro call. Request a match.
