Web Development Specialist

We're on the hunt for an experienced Web Development Specialist to build, maintain, and optimize the branded marketing and e-commerce websites that anchor our clients' digital presence. As we continue growing our agency, we need a developer who's as comfortable diagnosing a broken checkout flow on a Shopify store as they are scoping a full Word Press build from a Figma file — and who can move between the two without losing a step.

Expect the work to split roughly down the middle: about half keeping existing sites fast, secure, accessible, and reliable, and about half building new sites, features, and enhancements.

This is a multi-client agency environment, which means you'll move between several projects in a single day. Priorities shift, interruptions happen, and the person who thrives here is the one who can switch gears quickly without dropping quality. In this role, the Senior Web Specialist will demonstrate ownership over their work. We don't want someone who waits to be told what to do;

we're looking for an individual with initiative — someone who can pull from the project queue, judge what matters most, and keep work moving toward the finish line.

You'll also be the technical voice in the room. That means serving as the go-to resource when a build gets complicated, setting the standards and workflows the rest of the team develops against, and mentoring other developers through code review and knowledge sharing. Just as importantly, it means translating: this role works shoulder-to-shoulder with design, copy, digital, account management, and leadership, so you'll need to explain technical tradeoffs to non-technical audiences clearly enough that everyone can make a good decision together.
