Job Description

We are looking for an experienced WordPress Developer who can build high-quality, performance-focused websites using modern, block-based workflows. This role requires strong front-end fundamentals, a solid design sense, and the ability to translate layouts into clean, scalable WordPress builds.

You will work on business websites, landing pages, and content-driven platforms where speed, structure, and usability matter more than flashy effects.

Key Responsibilities

  • Build and customize WordPress websites using block-based architecture (Gutenberg-style workflows)
  • Convert design concepts or references into pixel-accurate, responsive WordPress layouts
  • Create reusable sections, patterns, and layout systems for long-term scalability
  • Design and develop landing pages focused on conversion and clarity
  • Ensure websites are fast-loading, SEO-friendly, and mobile-optimized
  • Work with existing themes and extend them without bloating the site
  • Maintain clean, well-structured HTML and CSS
  • Collaborate with SEO and content teams to implement best practices
  • Fix layout, responsiveness, and front-end issues across browsers and devices

Required Skills & Experience

  • 5+ years of hands-on WordPress development experience
  • Strong experience building sites using modern WordPress block editors
  • Solid understanding of HTML5, CSS3, and basic JavaScript
  • Strong eye for layout, spacing, typography, and color balance
  • Ability to create professional-looking websites without relying on heavy page builders
  • Experience designing and implementing landing pages
  • Working knowledge of performance optimization basics (Core Web Vitals, clean DOM, minimal bloat)
  • Good understanding of written English for instructions and documentation

Nice to Have (Not Mandatory)

Experience working with lightweight WordPress themes and modular layouts

Basic understanding of on-page SEO and schema implementation

Familiarity with Figma or design handoff files

Experience creating reusable design systems or style guides in WordPress

What We Value

Clean, structured work over shortcuts

Performance and maintainability over visual gimmicks

Ability to think in systems, not just single pages

Ownership of output and attention to detail

Important Note (Implicit Filter)

This role is not for developers who rely entirely on heavy visual page builders. We're looking for someone comfortable with native WordPress blocks and structured layouts.
