WordPress Developer (Backend & CMS Architecture)

We have the vision and the designs—now we need the architect to bring them to life. We are seeking a WordPress Developer to translate our completed designs into a high-performance, responsive, and easily manageable website. The goal isn't just a static site; we need a robust CMS setup that allows our team to seamlessly input and update product details, descriptions, and media through a structured backend.

The Mission:

Design-to-Code Translation:

Convert ready-made designs into pixel-perfect, responsive web pages using clean CSS, HTML, and PHP.

Custom CMS Architecture:

Build out the backend (utilizing Custom Post Types and Fields) so that product data is organized and easy for non-technical team members to manage.

Performance Optimization:

Ensure the site is lightweight, "lag-free," and optimized for speed and core web vitals.

SEO Foundations:

Implement best practices for search engine visibility and clean site structure.

Cross-Browser Integrity:

Ensure a flawless experience across all modern browsers and mobile devices.

Technical Requirements:

WordPress Mastery:

Deep experience with the WordPress ecosystem, including theme development and database structure.

The Languages:

Expert-level proficiency in

PHP, CSS3

(including Flexbox/Grid), and HTML5.

Backend Logic:

Experience setting up Custom Post Types (CPT) and Advanced Custom Fields (ACF) to create a tailored editing experience.

Responsiveness:

A "mobile-first" mindset with a focus on fluid, responsive layouts.

Performance Tools:

Familiarity with caching, image optimization, and code minification to ensure top-tier site speed.

What We're Looking For:

Local Presence:

You must be based in the Bayarea for in-person collaboration.

Efficiency:

You know how to build lean. No bloated plugins or unnecessary code.

Independence:

You can take a design file and a brief and return with a fully functional staging site.

Strategic Thinking:

You don't just follow instructions; you suggest "fresh ideas" for better UX or technical workflows.

Detail Obsession:

You care about the padding, the hover states, and the site's behavior on a 13-inch laptop vs. a 30-inch monitor.

Bonus Skills:

• Experience with product catalog management.
• Knowledge of modern JavaScript frameworks.
• Experience with API integrations or third-party service connections.
