We’re looking for a WordPress Developer with 3+ years of experience  to join our team. More specifically, we’re looking for someone comfortable taking design mockups and replicating them with code. Often, this code is in the form of a custom WordPress theme. This position requires a combination of programming skills (namely PHP, HTML5, CSS3, and JavaScript) and aesthetics (understanding element arrangements on the screen, the color and font choices, and so on).

You’ll be working closely with our production team, including design staff and developers, to build cool stuff for our clients.

• The ability to build custom WordPress themes and strong familiarity with concepts such as custom post types and custom fields
• Ability to manage multiple projects at once, while accurately setting and meeting deadlines
• Flexible and willing to accept a change in priorities as necessary
• Ability to work independently and multi-task effectively
• Strong attention to detail

 
2-+ Years in:

• WordPress
• PHP development.
• MySQL experience.
• Front-end web development including HTML5, CSS, JavaScript and jQuery.

 
Here’s the kind of stuff you’ll do:

• Use your knowledge of front and back-end development and WordPress to develop high-quality, high-functioning and beautiful websites for our internal projects and for our clients
• Collaborate with design and copy teams to translate campaigns and activations into optimized web elements - including websites, microsites, landing pages, integrations, systems, and forms
• Build reusable code and libraries for future use
• Ensure the technical feasibility of UI/UX designs
• Optimize code for maximum speed and scalability
• Provide strategic recommendations for design implementation
