About the Role

We're looking for a Next.js + WordPress Developer to take ownership of both front-end and back-end performance across our portfolio of high-traffic, content-driven websites. In this role, you’ll be responsible for building fast, scalable interfaces, optimizing WordPress architecture, and designing clean integrations between systems.

This is a full-time, remote position with a focus on autonomy, problem-solving, and long-term impact.

What You’ll Do

• Develop high-performance user interfaces using Next.js and Tailwind CSS
• Customize and maintain the WordPress backend (themes, plugins, and REST APIs)
• Design clean, scalable APIs to connect frontend and backend systems
• Optimize performance using Cloudflare edge functions, CDNs, and caching strategies
• Implement and maintain CI/CD pipelines
• Troubleshoot performance issues and identify long-term architectural improvements
• Ensure accessibility, SEO, and mobile responsiveness are built in from day one
• Work with RESTful APIs or GraphQL as needed
• Write clean, maintainable, and well-documented code
• Participate in code reviews and contribute to continuous improvement

About You

You’re a resourceful, performance-minded developer who thrives on building scalable systems and solving technical challenges independently. You’re proactive, curious, and value clean architecture as much as end-user performance.

You should have:

• Strong experience with WordPress and Next.js
• Solid knowledge of PHP, JavaScript, HTML/CSS, and Tailwind CSS
• Familiarity with the WordPress REST API and custom endpoints
• Experience with state management (e.g., Redux or React Context)
• Understanding of CI/CD workflows and deployment pipelines
• A performance-first mindset: SEO, page speed, and scalability
• Excellent debugging skills and attention to detail

Bonus points for:

• Experience with PostgreSQL, MongoDB, or .NET

What’s in It for You?

💰 $25,000–$39,000 USD/year, based on experience
🌍 Fully remote, full-time
📈 Room to grow technically and professionally
🧠 Work on meaningful problems with real autonomy and impact
🤝 Join a collaborative team with asynchronous communication and a low-ego culture

If you're passionate about clean code, performance, and modern development practices, we’d love to hear from you.
