Laravel developer for Denmark

Laravel developer for Denmark: senior engineering for Danish SaaS and product teams

You are a Danish SaaS founder or product team who needs a senior Laravel engineer for an MVP, subscription billing, dashboards, or integrations, without the day rate and hiring timeline of a permanent Copenhagen engineer. I work remotely from Spain, in the same timezone as Denmark, with a full working-day overlap.

A good fit for Copenhagen and Aarhus startups and established Danish product teams who need senior Laravel work delivered reliably, whether that is a new build, augmenting an existing team, or taking over a stalled project.

Where I help most for Denmark-based teams

Senior Laravel talent in Copenhagen is scarce and expensive

Danish flexicurity means high salaries, a 37-hour week, and five to six weeks of holiday, so a permanent senior hire is costly and slow to fill. I offer the same level of engineering as a fixed-scope remote engagement, without the local hiring premium.

An MVP needs to ship before funding runway runs out

Danish founders often have a fixed window to reach a working product. I build the MVP core, not a prototype that needs rebuilding once real users arrive.

Stripe billing and subscriptions are not holding up

Danish SaaS products commonly bill through Stripe, often alongside MobilePay and EU VAT (moms at 25%). I build subscription logic with Laravel Cashier that handles trials, plan changes, VAT, and failed renewals correctly, not just the happy path.

You need to augment an existing team, not replace it

Your in-house team is stretched on one workstream. I plug in as a senior Laravel engineer on a defined piece of work, coordinate with your team, and hand back clean, documented code.

GDPR and Datatilsynet questions slow down decisions

Product and infrastructure decisions need to account for GDPR and Danish data protection expectations from Datatilsynet. I build with EU data residency and GDPR requirements in mind from the start, not retrofitted later.

A previous contractor left the codebase unclear

No tests, no documentation, decisions nobody can explain. I take over an existing Laravel project, document what exists, and make it safe for your team to build on again.

What working with a Laravel developer for Denmark includes

Senior Laravel engineering, not a junior placeholder

MVP builds, API and dashboard development, and integrations delivered by one senior engineer who owns the outcome, not a rotating team.

Stripe subscriptions built for Danish SaaS

Plans, trials, proration, VAT, and dunning with Laravel Cashier, plus MobilePay where you need it, tested against real webhook events rather than only the demo purchase.

Team augmentation on your terms

Join an existing sprint cadence, work against your backlog, and communicate through your existing tools, whether that is Slack, Linear, or Jira.

EU-to-EU delivery with no visa friction

Spain and Denmark are both EU member states, so there is no work permit or visa process to manage before work starts.

Documentation and clean handover

Tests on the paths that matter and written documentation, so your team is never dependent on one contractor to keep moving.

How a Denmark engagement runs

Each stage is scoped before it starts, whether you need a one-off build or ongoing capacity alongside your team.

  1. Discovery call

    We cover your product, your Stripe or MobilePay billing model if relevant, and whether you need a new build, team augmentation, or a takeover of existing code.

  2. Scoped audit or build plan

    For a new engagement, I map the work into a fixed first phase. For a takeover, I audit the existing codebase before committing to changes.

  3. Delivery with full working-day overlap

    Work happens on a branch or in your sprint cadence. Spain and Denmark share the same CET/CEST timezone, so my working day matches yours in full.

  4. Handover or ongoing capacity

    You get documentation and a clean handover, or we continue with a monthly capacity arrangement if you need ongoing senior Laravel work.

Frequently asked questions

Are you based in Denmark, or remote?

I work remotely from Spain, not from a Danish office. Spain and Denmark are in the same timezone, so we share a full working day. For a product team working through Git, video calls, and a shared backlog, this makes no practical difference to delivery.

How does this compare to a permanent senior hire in Copenhagen?

Danish flexicurity means high salaries, a 37-hour week, and five to six weeks of holiday, which makes a permanent senior Laravel hire expensive and slow to fill, especially since local senior talent is scarce. Working remotely from Spain on a fixed scope, I can offer the same level of senior engineering without that ongoing cost.

Is this an EU-to-EU engagement? Do we need a work permit?

Yes, this is EU-to-EU. Spain and Denmark are both EU member states, so there is no visa or work permit process for either side to manage. Contracting works the same way as hiring any other EU-based service provider.

Do you have experience with Stripe, MobilePay, and subscription billing?

Yes. Stripe is the common billing choice for Danish SaaS products, often alongside MobilePay, and I build subscription logic with Laravel Cashier that handles plans, trials, proration, EU VAT, and failed renewals, not just the demo checkout.

Who owns the code and the intellectual property?

You do. Code lives in your repository from day one, and everything is documented and handed over. There is no dependency on me continuing beyond the engagement you choose.

Can you augment our existing engineering team rather than run a standalone project?

Yes. A lot of this work is joining an existing Danish team on a defined piece of work: a feature, a billing rebuild, or an integration, working inside your sprint cadence and tools rather than as a separate silo. Danish teams tend to be flat and trust-based, and that direct, fast way of working suits me well.

What is the actual overlap with Danish working hours?

Spain and Denmark both run on CET/CEST, so we are in the same timezone all year. In practice that means a normal Danish working day overlaps entirely with mine, so standups, reviews, and pairing sessions happen live rather than across a time difference.
