This is a white-label engagement - you'll be working under the NIMBL Studio name, and the role is client-facing, so strong communication and professionalism matter as much as the technical work. Development timeline is 2-4 weeks, so we need someone who can move quickly without cutting corners. This is a fixed-price project to start, but we're specifically looking for someone we can build an ongoing relationship with - if this goes well, there will be more projects., * 7-10+ years of professional web development experience * Comfortable collaborating directly and continuously with a front-end designer, not just executing a static handoff * Familiarity with Figma - able to work directly from Figma design files (inspect specs, pull assets/tokens, follow component structure) since that's how designs will be delivered * Available to complete development within a 2-4 week timeline * Proven experience configuring headless WordPress as a CMS (e.g., WPGraphQL or the WP REST API), and the judgment to recommend the right approach for a non-technical, client-side editorial team * Ability to explain CMS/content-model tradeoffs in plain language to a client - not just implement a stack someone else specified * Strong hands-on Next.js/React experience, including building from a defined design system rather than a generic template * Experience implementing web motion/animation (e.g., GSAP, Framer Motion, or similar) - scroll-triggered reveals, transitions, and video-driven heroes * Experience delivering pixel-accurate, responsive, cross-browser builds * Experience building and integrating web forms, including validation, spam protection, and submission handling (email and/or CRM integration) * Comfort running QA and performance passes and addressing findings * Experience deploying and handing off production sites, with clear documentation * Strong verbal and written communication - comfortable being client-facing and working under a white-label/consultant arrangement where you represent our company, not your own * A portfolio with examples of headless WordPress/Next.js or comparable JAMstack builds Nice to Have * Prior experience as a white-label or subcontracted consultant for an agency * Background in motion/interaction design, not just implementation * Familiarity with SEO and analytics setup on headless/JAMstack builds * Experience with Vercel or similar deployment platforms, * A brief note on your relevant experience with headless WordPress and Next.js builds * Links to 2-3 live sites you've built on a similar stack, ideally including any with motion/animation work * Confirmation you're comfortable with a white-label, client-facing arrangement * Confirmation you can commit to a 2-4 week development timeline starting soon * Your years of relevant experience, * WordPress Development: 7 years (Preferred) * Next.js: 5 years (Preferred) ## Description * Advise on and choose the right headless CMS configuration for the client's editorial team - the content model and editing experience need to be genuinely client-friendly, not just technically functional * Configure headless WordPress as the content CMS based on that recommendation * Work hand in hand with our front-end designer throughout the build - translating and iterating on the design system together rather than working from a handed-off, finished spec * Build a custom Next.js frontend from Figma design files provided by our designer * Build out motion and interaction: scroll reveals, page/section transitions, and a hero video * Deliver a fully responsive build across desktop and mobile * Build and wire up three forms - careers application, contact, and general inquiry - with proper validation and submission handling * Run a full QA pass across browsers and devices * Run a performance pass (load times, Core Web Vitals, image/asset optimization) * Handle deployment and provide a clean handoff (documentation, environment setup, and any necessary access/credential transfer) * Represent NIMBL Studio professionally in client calls and communication - this role is client-facing and white-label ## Related Videos - [GraphQL + Apollo + Next.js: A Lovely Trio](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/311-graphql-apollo-next-js-a-lovely-trio) - [Building Multi-Tenant ASP.NET Core Applications: Best Practices and Real-World Solutions](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/1552-building-multi-tenant-asp-net-core-applications-best-practices-and-real-world-solutions) - [Boost Productivity with AI: Figma & Playwright MCP Workflows - Aris Markogiannakis](https://www.wearedevelopers.com/videos/1768-boost-productivity-with-ai-figma-playwright-mcp-workflows-aris-markogiannakis) - [Kill Your WordPress.
