About the role
Media Captain is a digital marketing agency looking for an advanced WordPress developer to join our development team.
We need a strong technical resource who can work independently on challenging projects and develop creative solutions for complex client needs. While you'll work on a mix of projects, we're specifically looking for someone with the expertise to handle our most technical and customized website work.
This is a part-time position for 5-10 hours per week at $65/hour, fully remote. You'll report to our Head of Development and Development Manager, who will assign projects from our queue with specific deadlines.
What You'll Be Doing:
Building custom WordPress sites from Illustrator
Architecting database structures and optimizing MySQL queries for performance
Developing and integrating APIs and third-party systems (CRM, ERP, etc.)
Handling highly technical customizations and backend logic
Developing creative solutions for complex client requirements
Collaborating with the dev team while working independently on assigned projects
Troubleshooting, debugging, and maintaining custom plugins and backend functionality
Required Skills:
Advanced WordPress development expertise
WooCommerce proficiency
PHP/MySQL
JavaScript/jQuery
Experience with WP Bakery (or similar page builders)
Strong communication skills and reliable deadline management
Creative problem-solving ability - many client requests require innovative approaches rather than out-of-the-box solutions
What Makes This Role Different: We need someone who can handle routine projects efficiently but also gets excited about complex technical challenges and can architect solutions when the path isn't clear.
If you're an experienced developer who enjoys tackling difficult problems and can work independently on technical projects, please apply with your resume. We'll schedule interviews via Google Meet.
Job Type: Part-time
Pay: $65.00 per hour
Application Question(s):
Please send the links to 3 WordPress sites you've built. Please explain any custom functionality or technical requirements that were needed to complete these.
