About the Role:

We're looking for a senior front-end developer who cares about clean code, loves solving complex puzzles, and has a great eye for design. This role is for a full redesign of our website — not client work, not multiple sites.

You’ll turn our Figma design into a custom WordPress site — no page builders, just a thoughtful, performant, hand-coded theme. We'll launch the new design component-by-component to the live site, so you’ll work closely with our team to build and ship each part with care.

We use GitHub for version control. You should be confident in CSS, Tailwind CSS, PHP, JavaScript, and HTML. If you have an eye for detail and care about helping people through your work, we’d love to meet you.

(Note: We don't need/use JS frameworks like React, Vue.js, etc.)

What does the work look like?

We’re looking for a front-end developer to work in between our design & tech teams. Our current project is a major redesign, which still has a lot of logic to code. After that, you could be working on any number of projects, from interactive tools built from scratch (ex: an Operating Agreement generator) to internal tools for the content team.

As a first step, you’ll get a full walkthrough of what’s been built so far. You might review or audit the code, and you’ll be part of the brainstorming and problem-solving process. You’ll also help us figure out exactly what work still needs to be done.

Key Responsibilities:

Turn detailed Figma designs into a responsive, accessible, and fully functional WordPress site
Write clean, efficient, and maintainable code using CSS, PHP, JavaScript and HTML.
Make sure everything works across browsers and runs fast
Work closely with our designer, back-end developer, founder, and SEO strategist to get every detail right — we care deeply about doing great work
Help improve how we build things by refining our process and sharing ideas

Required Skills & Qualifications:

10+ years of front-end WordPress experience
Expert at turning Figma designs into custom WordPress themes
Strong in CSS, PHP, JavaScript and HTML.
Vast experience using Tailwind CSS in real-world projects
Strong proficiency in CSS and modern layout techniques (Flexbox, Grid, etc.)
Deep understanding of responsive and adaptive design
3+ years using Git for version control
Clear and thoughtful communication in English — written and spoken
Willing to have honest, open, even though conversations when needed — we care about trust and doing great work together
A strong culture fit — we're a kind, friendly team that cares about details, good communication, and helping each other do our best work

Personal Traits:

You have a growth mindset and love learning new things to keep improving your craft
You bring a positive attitude, take initiative, and enjoy solving tough problems
You’re comfortable working as part of a team and independently — we work on the Eastern Time zone.
Note: We do lots of video calls and screensharing for brainstorming and troubleshooting.

Why Join Us?

Collaborate on high-impact projects with a passionate, supportive team.
Embrace a culture that values positivity, growth, and professional excellence.
Enjoy flexibility, autonomy, and opportunities to grow your skillset.
