The Role

We’re looking for a Software Engineer (WordPress) with strong PHP and WordPress experience to help us build, scale, and maintain high‑performance publisher sites and WordPress‑based products that integrate with our ad tech stack.

• Build REST APIs and integrations with internal services and third‑party platforms (analytics, ad tech, SSO, etc.).
• Optimize performance (Core Web Vitals), security, and reliability across high‑traffic sites.
• Implement CI/CD pipelines, automated tests, and code quality tooling.
• Diagnose and resolve production issues; participate in an on‑call rotation (reasonable schedule, follow‑the‑sun).
• Partner with stakeholders to estimate effort, break down work, and deliver iterative value.
• Contribute to engineering standards, documentation, and knowledge sharing.

You’ll Thrive Here If You

• Enjoy owning features from design to deployment.
• Communicate clearly in an async, remote‑first culture (Slack, docs, PRs).
• Care about developer experience, code quality, and maintainability.

Qualifications

• Strong WordPress expertise: hooks/filters, custom post types, WP‑CLI, multisite, Gutenberg/Block Editor.
• Frontend proficiency: HTML5, CSS/Sass, JavaScript/TypeScript, React for Gutenberg blocks.
• Experience with MySQL/MariaDB, query optimization, and caching (Object Cache/Redis, page caching).
• Git/GitHub (PR reviews, trunk‑based or GitFlow), CI/CD fundamentals.
• Performance and security best practices (Core Web Vitals, CWEs/OWASP, nonces/capabilities).
• Comfortable working across time zones in a remote team.

Nice‑to‑Haves

• Experience with ad tech (Google Ad Manager, Prebid, header bidding) or analytics (GA4, Looker Studio).
• Infrastructure experience: Docker, Nginx/Apache, Varnish, Cloudflare, AWS/GCP.

• Experience with telemetry/observability (Logrocket/Sentry, OpenTelemetry, Datadog/New Relic).

Example Projects You Might Own

• Build a privacy‑aware custom plugin that injects ad placements conditionally based on consent signals (TCF/US Privacy) and viewability.
• Migrate legacy shortcodes to Gutenberg blocks with React and server‑side rendering for performance.
• Implement an edge‑cache strategy and object caching to reduce TTFB and improve LCP across high‑traffic pages.
• Create a small service that syncs WP content with internal APIs; expose a hardened REST endpoint for partners.
