This is a remote position. Dignotion is looking for an experienced and detail-oriented Word Press 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 Word Press 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 Word Press websites (themes, plugins, custom features)

• 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 Woo Commerce 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 Word Press 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
