What you'll own

This role is not limited to maintaining WordPress pages.

We are looking for someone who can own the website as an engineering product - understand how it works, identify what can be improved, make technical decisions, and continuously improve its performance, scalability, reliability, and user experience.

If you've worked on a high-traffic SaaS or technology website and enjoy taking ownership of the entire web experience, we'd love to hear from you.

## Description

* Own the development, maintenance, and continuous improvement of Emitrr's WordPress website.
 * Build and optimize high-quality landing pages, product pages, and website experiences.
 * Develop and customize WordPress themes, templates, plugins, and components.
 * Work closely with Design, Content, Marketing, and Engineering teams to turn ideas into scalable web experiences.
 * Optimize websites for performance, SEO, accessibility, security, and scalability.
 * Build and maintain integrations with third-party tools, APIs, analytics platforms, and marketing automation systems.
 * Improve website architecture and development processes as the website and traffic scale.
 * Monitor website performance and identify opportunities to improve speed, conversion, SEO, and user experience.
 * Troubleshoot and resolve production issues independently.
 * Take end-to-end ownership of web projects - from understanding the requirement and choosing the right approach to development, deployment, and ongoing optimization.
 * Contribute to making the website reliable and scalable as traffic and content grow.
