About the role
Build Next-Level Web Experiences for Local Brands That Drive Real Results
At Nexvel, we believe local businesses deserve better: better websites, better tools, better strategy. For over 10 years, we’ve brought the latest technology to the local level, helping small businesses compete and win in a digital-first world.
We serve some of the Greater Philadelphia region’s most recognized local brands across industries like home services, healthcare, and legal, building modern websites, web apps, and digital experiences that actually move the needle.
We’re looking for a web developer who’s excited about where the web is going. Not just someone who can build front-end experiences, but someone who can think like an architect, solve problems like an engineer, and adapt quickly as the tech evolves. You’ll work primarily on the front end using React, WordPress, and headless builds, but we care more about how you think than what your title says. The future of development isn’t about front-end or back-end. It’s about building flexible, scalable platforms that solve real problems for real businesses.
This is an in-office position based in Elkins Park, PA. We’re collaborative by nature and believe the best work happens when we can connect face-to-face. If you're looking to grow in a supportive environment where your work directly impacts real businesses, we’d love to meet you.
