Web Developer / UI-UX Designer

We are seeking a talented and proactive WordPress Developer to take ownership of our WordPress-based websites and digital platforms. In this role, you will be responsible for both front-end presentation and back-end development, including the implementation of custom themes, plugin architecture, and site integrations.

• Ensure Peak Performance: Optimize site architecture for maximum loading speed, core web vitals, and seamless mobile responsiveness.

• Maintain Site Integrity: Manage platform security, uptime, backup strategies, and database health to prevent vulnerabilities or data loss.

• Empower Content Creators: Configure clean, intuitive back-end editing experiences (such as custom Gutenberg blocks or structured fields) for non-technical team members.

Core Responsibilities

• Design and implement front-end user interfaces using responsive HTML5, CSS3/SASS, and JavaScript that match design wireframes.

• Develop, test, and deploy custom WordPress plugins and themes to extend core functionality.

• Manage complex third-party integrations, including payment gateways, CRM syncing, marketing automation tools, and REST APIs.

• Conduct website performance audits to troubleshoot slow load times, optimizing caching, asset delivery, and database queries.

• Oversee regular maintenance updates for WordPress core, parent themes, and active plugins, ensuring zero downtime during deployment.

• Collaborate with SEO teams to implement technical schema, semantic markup, and proper URL architectures.
