Job Description

This is a remote position.

Dignotion is looking for an experienced and detail-oriented WordPress Developer to support a range of high-impact web projects. This is a remote, project-based opportunity with flexible hours, ideal for developers who are comfortable working independently and bringing custom, performance-optimized WordPress solutions to life.

In this role, you’ll work on both new builds and existing properties, including the development of feature-rich, fast-loading websites. Many of our projects involve complex content structures, dynamic listings, and third-party integrations—so strong experience with custom development beyond basic theming is essential.

Key Responsibilities

• Develop, customize, and maintain WordPress websites (themes, plugins, custom features)
  
• Build pages from scratch with and without page builders (e.g. Elementor)
  
• Optimize websites for performance, Web Core Vitals, and mobile responsiveness
  
• Manage and monitor bug tracking, QA, and ongoing maintenance
  
• Implement both backend and frontend features to spec
  
• Support WooCommerce development and optimization
  
• Improve site speed via caching, lazy loading, and optimized code
  
• Configure complex hosting setups, load balancers, and Git-based version control
  
• Integrate third-party APIs and dynamic content
  
• Translate project briefs into development roadmaps and deliverables
  
• Coordinate with internal teams and plugin/theme developers when needed

Requirements

• 3+ years of hands-on WordPress development experience
  
• Strong skills in HTML, CSS, PHP, MySQL, JavaScript, and related toolkits
  
• Experience working with REST APIs (advantage)
  
• Familiarity with Git workflows and version control (advantage)
  
• Understanding of cross-browser compatibility and responsive design
  
• Ability to plan structured, scalable builds and follow through independently
  
• Excellent communication and fluent written English
  
• Experience working remotely and managing tasks asynchronously
  
• Familiarity with page builders like Elementor (advantage)
  
• Experience with affiliate marketing tools or link tracking (advantage)
  

Additional Bonus Points If You Have:

• Prior work developing listing-based, comparison, or directory-style websites
  
• Comfort working with structured content, advanced filtering, and UX-driven data presentation
  
• Experience creating CMS-driven experiences tailored for performance and scalability
  

Benefits

• Fully remote or hybrid work (NYC-based optional)
  
• Flexible working hours and project scope
  
• Competitive rates, defined individually per project and experience level
  
• Opportunity to work on technically challenging, high-visibility builds with a skilled and collaborative team
