What You’ll Be Doing:

  • Building custom WordPress sites from Illustrator
  • Architecting database structures and optimizing MySQL queries for performance
  • Developing and integrating APIs and third-party systems (CRM, ERP, etc.)
  • Handling highly technical customizations and backend logic
  • Developing creative solutions for complex client requirements
  • Collaborating with the dev team while working independently on assigned projects
  • Troubleshooting, debugging, and maintaining custom plugins and backend functionality

Requirements

Do you have experience in WordPress?, We need a strong technical resource who can work independently on challenging projects and develop creative solutions for complex client needs. While you’ll work on a mix of projects, we’re specifically looking for someone with the expertise to handle our most technical and customized website work., * Advanced WordPress development expertise

  • WooCommerce proficiency
  • PHP/MySQL
  • JavaScript/jQuery
  • Experience with WP Bakery (or similar page builders)
  • Strong communication skills and reliable deadline management
  • Creative problem-solving ability - many client requests require innovative approaches rather than out-of-the-box solutions
