About Us

We're a 4-person UX and web development team creating exceptional digital experiences for clients who value strategy and craftsmanship. Founded in 2008, we've built our reputation on delivering custom WordPress and Shopify solutions that combine beautiful design with solid technical execution. Our collaborative environment means you'll work directly with UX designers, strategists, and clients to bring ideas to life.

The Role

We're looking for an experienced WordPress developer who can transform Figma designs into clean, responsive websites. You'll build custom themes from the ground up using core WordPress functionality—no page builders or drag-and-drop tools. We need someone who writes code, not someone who configures Elementor widgets.

You'll develop custom WooCommerce solutions, create Shopify stores, and build websites that perform beautifully across all devices. While you won't be speaking directly with clients, you'll be implementing solutions for our direct client relationships and working closely with our team to deliver exceptional results.

Your typical week includes hand-coding WordPress themes, building WooCommerce functionality, optimizing site performance, and collaborating with UX designers to ensure seamless design-to-development workflows.

What You'll Need

Required Qualifications:

• Degree in Computer Science, Web Development, or related field
• Absolutely must have 5+ years experience building custom WordPress themes from the ground up
• Advanced Custom Fields (ACF) proficiency
• Experience with WooCommerce development and customization
• Shopify theme development and Liquid templating experience
• Strong ability to convert Figma designs to responsive, clean code
• Knowledge of accessibility standards (WCAG 2.1)
• Understanding of analytics and tag management
• Version control experience with Git
• Understanding of performance optimization and SEO best practices
• Excellent communication skills for team collaboration

Preferred Qualifications:

• Experience with build tools (Vite, Webpack, Gulp, or similar)
• Understanding of headless WordPress implementations
• Experience with testing frameworks

What We Offer

• Competitive Salary ($55K-$80K based on experience)
• Performance bonus (on top of salary)
• Generous PTO policy (15+ days to start)
• Modern equipment and software licenses provided
• Retirement Plan

Professional Growth:

• Direct mentorship from experienced team members
• Conference attendance and training opportunities
• Clear path for skill advancement and increased responsibilities
• Small team environment where your contributions are immediately visible
• Collaborative team that values both technical excellence and creative problem-solving
• Modern development workflow with proper staging environments
• Regular team retrospectives and process improvements
• Orlando location with easy commute and great local tech community

Our Process

• Portfolio Review: Submit your resume, portfolio, and 2-3 examples of WordPress sites you've built from Figma designs
• Initial Interview: 30-minute conversation about your experience and our team culture
• Technical Assessment: Practical coding exercises and more
• Final Interview: Meet the team and discuss specific projects and growth opportunities

Ready to Apply?

While some applications submitted from Linkedin might get a response, we need you to submit at https://boldist.co/join-the-team/ to be considered. Send us your resume, portfolio link, and a brief note about why you're interested in joining our team. In your note, include links to 3 WordPress sites you've built using custom code (please, no page builder examples).

We're excited to meet a developer who shares our passion for creating exceptional web experiences and wants to grow with a team that values both technical excellence and collaborative creativity.
