In this role, you’ll design and build custom plugins using modern PHP and React, craft powerful Gutenberg blocks, and integrate with REST APIs and third-party services. You’ll work closely with cross-functional teams to deliver high-impact internal tools, all while following best practices in performance, security, and scalable architecture.

If you have 5+ years of experience in WordPress development, love clean, maintainable code, and enjoy working in a collaborative remote environment — we’d love to hear from you!

What You’ll Do

  • Design and develop custom WordPress plugins using modern Object-Oriented PHP and WordPress APIs.
  • Build interactive, scalable admin interfaces using React JS and the WordPress Block Editor (Gutenberg).
  • Architect plugin features that integrate with REST APIs, third-party services, and internal platforms.
  • Ensure plugins follow WordPress coding standards, performance best practices, and security guidelines.
  • Maintain and improve existing plugins, fixing bugs, optimizing performance, and enhancing features.
  • Collaborate with design, front-end, and DevOps teams to ship features quickly and efficiently.
  • Write comprehensive documentation and maintain clean, well-commented code.
  • Participate in code reviews, architectural discussions, and long-term product planning.

Requirements

  • 5+ years of professional WordPress development experience, with a focus on plugin development.
  • Strong expertise in Object-Oriented PHP and familiarity with SOLID principles.
  • Proficiency in JavaScript (ES6+) and React JS, especially within the context of the Block Editor (Gutenberg).
  • Deep understanding of WordPress core, hooks, filters, shortcodes, custom post types, taxonomies, REST API, and plugin architecture.
  • Experience building Gutenberg blocks using React and JSX.
  • Familiarity with WP-CLI, custom cron jobs, caching strategies, and WordPress multisite.
  • Experience using Git in a team development environment.
  • Strong focus on performance optimization, security best practices, and maintainable architecture.
  • Experience with automated testing (e.g., PHPUnit, Playwright, or Cypress) is a big plus.
  • Comfortable working in a remote, asynchronous team environment.

Bonus Points

  • Experience building SaaS integrations with WordPress.
  • Familiarity with tools like Composer, Webpack, Vite, or Laravel Mix.
  • Prior work on plugins available in the WordPress.org repo or as premium products.
  • Experience with continuous integration tools (e.g., GitHub Actions, Bitbucket Pipelines).
  • Contributions to WordPress Core, themes, or plugins.

Why Join Us?

  • Work on high-impact internal tools that empower an entire production team.
  • Be part of a tight-knit, passionate team that values innovation, craftsmanship, and developer happiness.
  • Work with modern tooling and standards in an environment that supports learning and growth.
  • Help shape the future of scalable WordPress development in a fast-paced digital agency.
  • Competitive pay, flexible hours, and a remote-first culture.
