- Must be proficient in Adobe Photoshop and Illustrator for graphics, icons, illustrations, image editing, and final assets.
- Hands-on experience with HTML5, CSS3 (using SCSS or LESS), and basic JavaScript (ES6+) to build clean, responsive, pixel-perfect templates from designs.
- Proven ability to build and customize websites using WordPress: converting designs into functional sites with themes (classic or block-based), page builders (e.g., Elementor, Beaver Builder, or Gutenberg), custom CSS/JS tweaks, and basic theme/child theme modifications for pixel-perfect implementation and responsive layouts.
- Familiar with CSS tools like Tailwind CSS or Bootstrap for fast, cross-device layouts.
