Job description

Weâre also expanding what we build. Alongside WordPress and Statamic, weâre growing our capability in Webflow and Framer, and leaning into AI tools to work faster without sacrificing quality. We want someone excited to build with us as we move into new areas, not just execute whatâs already well-defined.
