Descrição da oferta de emprego

Full Stack Engineer (WordPress/PHP, Python, React)

Location: Remote – LATAM

Contract: Full-Time Vendor

Overview

Our client’s Platform Team is seeking a Mid Full Stack Engineer with strong hands‑on experience in PHP and WordPress, focused on maintaining, extending, and evolving existing CMS‑based solutions in production environments.

This role is ideal for an engineer with solid foundations in WordPress customization and backend development who is comfortable working with existing codebases, implementing new features incrementally, and learning new technologies as the platform evolves. While WordPress and PHP are the primary focus today, the stack is expected to gradually incorporate more Python, React, and AI‑related components over time.

What You’ll Do

• Develop and maintain custom WordPress solutions (plugins, themes, and integrations), working primarily on existing codebases and feature enhancements rather than greenfield architecture.
  Implement and extend PHP‑based functionality following established WordPress patterns, including hooks, actions, filters, and basic OOP principles.
• Integrate WordPress with external systems using REST or GraphQL APIs, supporting content delivery, data synchronization, and backend workflows.
  Support headless or partially headless setups by collaborating with frontend engineers working in React, assisting with data exposure and backend changes as needed.
• Troubleshoot and fix bugs in production environments, addressing performance, reliability, and functional issues in a timely manner.
• Contribute to improvements in code quality, maintainability, and performance through refactoring and incremental optimizations.
• Work within CI/CD workflows and version control processes, following team standards for code reviews and deployments.
• Collaborate closely with engineers, QA, and product stakeholders in a distributed, agile environment.
• Gradually expand responsibilities into Python‑based tooling, automation, or backend services as the platform evolves.
• Participate in knowledge sharing and continuous improvement initiatives within the engineering team.

What You Bring

• 5+ years of professional experience developing web applications with a strong emphasis on PHP and WordPress.
• Hands‑on experience customizing WordPress through plugins, themes, and integrations, with exposure to production CMS environments.
• Solid understanding of WordPress Core concepts, including hooks, actions, filters, and basic security practices.
• Experience consuming or implementing REST APIs and/or GraphQL APIs in real projects.
• Working knowledge of JavaScript and basic familiarity with React, or strong willingness to learn and support frontend‑related tasks.
• Basic experience or exposure to Python, particularly for scripts, tooling, or automation, with interest in growing in this area.
• Experience using Git and collaborating in team‑based development workflows.
• Familiarity with monitoring or debugging production systems, with exposure to tools such as Datadog, logs, or similar observability platforms.
• Strong problem‑solving skills and ability to work effectively on existing systems and evolving requirements.
• Good communication skills and ability to collaborate with cross‑functional, international teams.
• Fluent English (B2 minimum) — able to participate in technical discussions and day‑to‑day collaboration.

Nice to Have

• Experience with AWS services such as S3 or CloudFront.
• Exposure to Infrastructure as Code tools like Terraform.
• Understanding of SEO principles and performance considerations for content‑heavy platforms.
• Experience with testing practices for backend or frontend components.
• Interest in AI‑assisted development or early experience integrating AI tools into engineering workflows.
• Prior experience working in agile, distributed engineering teams.
