Résumé du poste

Tenna is seeking a Web Developer to own the WordPress back end for our marketing site, focusing on stability, performance, security, and measurable health. You will manage hosting, plugins, security, uptime, and the HubSpot integration, while setting standards and documentation for a fast-moving marketing stack.

You will partner with the Front-End Designer & Developer, implement robust tracking and privacy controls, and drive technical SEO and site health across environments.

Qualifications

• 5+ years of professional back-end web development with substantial WordPress experience.
• Bachelor’s degree in computer science or related field, or equivalent experience.
• Experience supporting a B2B SaaS marketing site is a plus.
• Strong PHP, MySQL, and WordPress API expertise.
• Proficient JavaScript for backend-frontend interactions.

Responsabilités

• Owns the WordPress back end, including custom post types, taxonomies, custom fields, template logic, and custom plugin/theme functionality in PHP, along with gated content, dynamic and personalized content, form logic, and campaign infrastructure.
• Maintains a disciplined plugin strategy and a defined upgrade cadence for PHP, WordPress core, themes, and plugins, tested on staging before production release, and maintains Elementor at the platform level, including custom widgets and controlling the performance and markup overhead a page builder introduces.
• Maintains local, staging, and production environments with version control and a repeatable, documented deployment process.
• Owns site reliability and infrastructure end to end: uptime and error monitoring with automated alerting, server-side performance (caching, CDN, database and query optimization, image delivery), Core Web Vitals (LCP, INP, CLS), hosting/DNS/SSL, and automated backups with a tested disaster recovery plan.
• Owns website security end to end: hardening against common attack vectors, vulnerability scanning and patching, least-privilege access with MFA/SSO, and an incident response runbook you lead when something goes wrong.
• Maintains web privacy compliance (GDPR, CCPA/CPRA, and consent-mode configuration) and supports accessibility compliance by remediating barriers identified in WCAG 2.2 AA audits.
• Owns technical SEO execution and site health, including crawlability, sitemaps, schema markup, SEMrush monitoring, backlink remediation, and Google Search Console diagnostics, partnering with Tenna's Content SEO specialist on keyword and content strategy.
• Owns the tracking layer, including GA4, Google Tag Manager, HubSpot tracking, and server-side tagging where appropriate, ensuring marketing data is accurate and trusted.
• Builds and maintains integrations between WordPress, HubSpot, and other marketing and sales systems via APIs and webhooks, ensuring form submissions, lead routing, UTM and attribution data, and gated content flows work reliably end to end, and troubleshoots discrepancies as they arise.
• Documents architecture, integrations, credentials management, processes, and runbooks, and establishes QA standards and pre-release checklists, including automated or visual regression testing where it pays off.
• Partners daily with the Front-End Designer & Developer and supports marketing stakeholders with technical scoping, realistic estimates, and plain-language explanations of risk and tradeoffs.
• Uses Tenna-approved AI tools to accelerate debugging, code review, log triage, test generation, and documentation, with all AI-assisted code reviewed, tested, and security-checked before it reaches production.
