Description

About the Role

We are hiring a front-end WordPress developer. This is a remote contractor position to start, with potential for a long-term ongoing role based on fit and performance.

We prefer candidates based in LATAM for timezone alignment. You’ll work directly with our small team on new builds, maintenance, and optimizations, always balancing conversion-first principles with good user experience (UX).

We are looking for someone who is resourceful, self-directed, and thinks critically — not just someone who executes tasks, but someone who makes good decisions and brings ideas forward.

Build custom WordPress themes and templates (no page builders unless necessary)
Prioritize conversion best practices (clear CTAs, fast load times, mobile-first) while keeping clean, simple UX
Work with ACF (Advanced Custom Fields), WooCommerce, and Elementor (if required)
Optimize sites for speed, responsiveness, and engagement
Follow best practices for SEO, accessibility, and mobile optimization
Problem-solve issues independently before asking for help
Collaborate via Slack, Asana, and Git

Requirements

2+ years of WordPress front-end development experience
Strong skills in HTML, CSS, JavaScript, and basic PHP
Experience with Gutenberg, ACF, or similar
Strong critical thinking and independent problem-solving skills
Ability to manage deadlines without heavy supervision
Good written communication in English

Nice to Have

Familiarity with Shopify or other CMS
Knowledge of Tailwind CSS, React basics, or Figma-to-HTML skills
