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
