- Custom Development: Write clean, documented PHP and JavaScript for custom WooCommerce features, checkout logic, and specialized form integrations.
- Design Implementation: Build and maintain high-performance layouts using Divi / Divi 5, ensuring mobile responsiveness and fast load times.
- Troubleshooting: Act as the "Tier 1" technical lead to diagnose and fix plugin conflicts, database errors, and hosting environment issues.
- Security & Compliance: Manage SSL certificates, automated backups, and proactive malware scanning.
Technical Requirements (The Stack)
- Hosting: Advanced proficiency in SiteGround (Site Tools) and Hostinger (hPanel).
- CMS: Expert-level WordPress and WooCommerce administration.
- Design Framework: Mastery of Divi (including the new Divi 5 foundation).
- Programming: Strong PHP, HTML5, CSS3, and JavaScript/jQuery skills.
- Database: Ability to manage and optimize MySQL databases via phpMyAdmin.
- Tools: Experience with SFTP, SSH, and ideally, centralized management tools (ManageWP, InfiniteWP, etc.).
- Additional skills in front-end development including JavaScript frameworks (React), CSS preprocessors, or UI/UX design principles are highly desirable. Join us to be part of a forward-thinking organization where your innovative ideas will shape the future of web technology!
