WordPress Engineer

Employment Type: Contract
Location: Remote
Compensation: Hourly, based on experience

In this role, you will work on custom Word Press platforms while using tools like Claude Code to accelerate development, improve quality, and automate repetitive work. You will operate in an environment where context, systems, and structured workflows matter as much as code itself.

You will collaborate with our engineering, design, and project teams to deliver scalable, high-performance digital experiences. At the same time, you will continuously refine how work gets done by improving prompts, structuring context, and leveraging AI to increase output and consistency.

This is not traditional Word Press development. It is suited for engineers who are curious, fast-moving, and comfortable working at the intersection of development and AI.

Build high-quality Word Press experiences using AI-assisted development workflows (Claude Code, etc.)

Translate Figma designs into production-ready implementations with AI acceleration

Continuously refine prompts, context, and workflows to improve output quality

Ship faster by leveraging AI for scaffolding, debugging, and iteration

Ensure all output meets standards for performance, accessibility, and scalability

Collaborate with engineers and PMs while maintaining strong ownership

Document decisions and structure context so others (and AI) can build on your work

Strong experience with Word Press development (custom themes, plugins, block editor/FSE)

Proven ability to use AI tools (Claude Code, ChatGPT, Codex, etc.) in production workflows

Experience working in Git-based, collaborative environments

Strong grasp of performance optimization and accessibility (WCAG)

Ability to structure problems clearly so AI can execute effectively

Experience building internal tools, agents, or automation systems

Familiarity with context engineering, prompt systems, or multi-agent workflows

Experience integrating AI into real production pipelines
