Level 1 Full Stack Developer (WordPress, Shopify/HubSpot) - AI-Forward Agency

• Develop and maintain client sites and e-commerce storefronts, primarily on WordPress with secondary work in Shopify or HubSpot CMS.
• Execute custom integrations under senior direction - you write the code; senior leadership reviews the architecture.
• Implement tracking, forms, automations, and conversion-focused UX changes that drive measurable client outcomes.

• Break/Fix and Troubleshooting:

• Assist in diagnosing, troubleshooting, and routing website break/fix tickets to keep client sites running smoothly.
• Flag risks and edge cases to senior leadership early - your job is to surface issues, not solve critical ones solo.

• AI-Native Development Workflows:

• Use AI coding tools (Claude Code and similar) to plan, build, and QA work efficiently.
• Contribute to how PIC uses AI to deliver more for clients without compromising quality.
• Document what you build so account managers and strategists can hand it off cleanly to clients.

• Collaboration and Communication:

• Partner directly with strategists and account managers to understand client goals and translate them into technical solutions.
• Participate in code review and development practices that keep our work ship-ready.
• Communicate clearly about what you're building, why, and any blockers or risks along the way., * Trajectory over track record. We'd rather invest in a developer climbing toward great than hire one who's already settled into good.

• Core values fit. PIC runs on a defined set of values - we'll talk about them in the interview, and we'll be looking for evidence you live them.
• Attitude. Hungry, humble, and coachable. You take feedback well and you give it honestly.
• Curiosity about AI tooling. You don't need to be an expert - you need to be the kind of person who'd spend a Saturday afternoon figuring out Claude Code on your own.

Do you have experience in JavaScript?, * 2-4 years of hands-on development experience (can include freelance, agency, or in-house projects).

• Strong working knowledge of WordPress (PHP, custom themes, plugin basics, and site maintenance).
• Working experience with either Shopify (Liquid, theme development) or HubSpot CMS (HubL, workflows, custom objects).
• Comfort with HTML, CSS, JavaScript, and at least one server-side language (PHP, Node, or Python).
• Experience with version control and standard development practices, including Git branching, pull requests, and participating in code review.
• A disciplined approach to testing and validating your own work before handing it off.
• Experience reading and consuming REST APIs (HubSpot, Shopify, Stripe, or similar third-party integrations).
• Strong written communication - you can explain what you built and why in clear, accessible language.
• Located in or near the Greater Pittsburgh region (Morgantown to Erie, Pittsburgh to State College).
