About Edconic

Edconic is a leading player in the alternative, experiential education space. We partner with the world's largest and most well-known brands to create and run schools that capture the legacy and value of each brand. Our students get truly unique, once-in-a-lifetime experiences that help shape their future and give them the skills they need to reach their goals.

The Role

We're looking for an experienced Front-End Developer to join our web team, which owns every Edconic digital property – from our school websites to landing pages and email templates. You'll work alongside designers, IT, and MarTech to build solutions that serve real business needs while protecting each brand's unique identity.

You'll be one of two developers on the team, working directly with our lead developer. That means real ownership of your work, a genuine voice in how we build, very little process overhead, and a codebase that is actively moving toward a modern, standardized WordPress stack. We value craft: fast pages and code that the next developer can read.

What You'll Do

• Build and maintain public-facing websites, micro-sites, and landing pages in collaboration with our lead developer, IT, and MarTech.
• Work with UX/UI designers to confirm the technical feasibility of designs, then translate them into polished, responsive pages that stay true to each brand.
• Build and maintain custom WordPress themes across both of our stacks: modern block-based builds (ACF Blocks, core blocks, block patterns, theme.json) and established classic themes built on PHP templates, Advanced Custom Fields, and Sass.
• Collaborate with our lead developer to shape the team's coding standards, tooling, and workflow, and help migrate our existing sites toward our new modern stack.
• Stay current on emerging web standards and bring ideas to the table where they genuinely fit.

What You Bring

• The ability to build a custom WordPress theme from scratch using PHP templates and Advanced Custom Fields.
• Comfort working in Git/GitHub with pull requests and code reviews, and with npm-based build tools and the command line.
• Experience building and testing HTML emails.
• Strong UX/UI sensibilities and a desire to sweat the small stuff.
• A proactive, self-directed working style – you can run with a project independently and prioritize across several at once.
• Excellent written and verbal communication – you're positive, collaborative, objective, and solution-oriented.

Bonus Experience

• Modern WordPress block development: ACF Blocks, block.json, theme.json, and block patterns.
