Job description

Help Build the Future of Updraft WP Software Ltd.

If you’re a world-class WordPress developer with PHP and JavaScript experience looking to make an impact, then you’re probably who we’re looking for.

If you get excited working on innovative solutions to modern WordPress problems, AI, and Hosting, this could be the perfect job for you.

Ideally, you’ll know PHP like the back of your hand, be proficient in JavaScript, and confident with JQuery. You’ll be equally comfortable hooking up UI on the front end as working on complex problems in the backend.

We’re looking for someone who wants to work full-time hours; however, if you’re the superstar we’re looking for, we can be flexible.

We are a UK-based company (South Wales), but we offer roles to the right candidates worldwide. So, whether you’re local or remote, we’ve got roles to suit!

Here’s who we are:

At Team UpdraftPlus, our DNA is in world-leading software for WordPress that helps our customers backup, restore, clone, secure, and optimize their WordPress websites.

We’re a rapidly expanding, diverse, and creative team of developers. Our growth has mainly come from our incredible plugins that are among the highest rated in the WordPress ecosystem.

Job Description

Location: Global Remote

If you’re an ambitious and highly competent Web Developer with PHP, JS, JQuery, and WordPress experience, then keep reading.

We’re building UpdraftCentral, the platform that will empower millions of WordPress site owners.

UpdraftCentral is an all-in-one platform offering a range of features for anyone managing multiple WordPress websites.

It’s been around for a while, but we’re ready to level-up.

You will be working with a small, global team involved in the development and testing of the next iteration of UpdraftCentral.

The day-to-day role:

• Collaborate with others on our codebase to implement new features, bug fixes, and improvements
• Test and produce testing guides for your code
• Manage your own time to fulfill your tasks
• Research/debug problems on your own or in collaboration with other developers and our support team

Your exact responsibilities will depend on your experience, how this fits with other team members, and are subject to discussion and agreement.

You’ll definitely need experience with:

• PHP – the core language of WordPress; strong skills in this area are essential.
• WordPress plugin development or solutions built around WordPress.

It would be nice if you also have experience with:

• GitHub / GitLab / Git – nice to have, but can be learned quickly by good developers used to alternatives like SVN.
• Prefetching data and optimizing plugin performance

If we’ve captured your interest, we would love to hear from you.
