Jobs in Firenze, Italy

As a WordPress Developer at WPForms, you'll work on a diverse team that builds & supports a wide-range of websites. We’re looking for someone with experience in eCommerce and multiple payment gateways, with a mind for troubleshooting payment and subscription issues.

At WPForms, it’s not just our products that stand out. Our websites are the engines that power our customer experience and many of our products' extended features. We’re looking for a qualified full-stack WordPress Developer to join that team.

Our sites don’t just power sales, they extend product functionality using a variety of cloud technologies based in PHP and JavaScript. We need curiosity-driven developers to help us build the next generation of features. You’ll share the ownership and success of website projects with the team, where everyone shares ideas on the technical details of achieving those goals.

Your responsibilities will occasionally expand beyond WordPress to support a wide variety of ancillary installations and technologies. We’ve got a lot going on, and we want your help. This includes maintaining and extending existing functionality, optimizing for performance, and securing our codebase. You’ll be responsible for testing your own work and contributing to the reviews of your peers' work as well. We believe in a collaborative environment where your ideas are valued and your growth is supported.

This role is perfect for a developer with a strong understanding of WordPress architecture and a desire to build scalable, secure, and high-performing websites. If you're a problem-solver who thrives in a fast-paced environment and is passionate about writing clean, efficient code, we encourage you to apply!

Clearly include the following in your cover letter

• Tell us a bit about yourself and why you should be considered. Details about your experience, qualifications, personality, etc are very helpful.
• What is your favorite WordPress hook/function and why.
• What’s something you recently learned that got you excited?
• Also note, don't forget to proofread before submitting. Check spelling, capitalization, etc. This is your chance to make your application stand out :)

Awesome Motive is AI first and we welcome the use of AI - however, our core value of “Paying Attention To Details” means you must proofread everything and take extra care to ensure all sentiments are indeed your own.

We won’t be able to individually respond to all applications, but if we feel you’re a strong match, someone will be in touch shortly.

Thanks and we look forward to hearing from you!
