About the role

We’re currently looking for a Next.js + WordPress Developer who can take ownership of both front-end and backend performance across our sites. You'll be key in building high-performance pages, streamlining our WordPress architecture, and integrating clean APIs between systems.

• Optimize performance with Cloudflare edge functions, CDN, and caching

• Implement and maintain CI/CD pipelines

• Troubleshoot performance issues and suggest structural improvements

• Work with RESTful APIs or GraphQL where needed

• Write clean, scalable, maintainable code and contribute to reviews

About you

You should have:

• Strong experience in WordPress + Next.js development

• Solid knowledge of PHP, JavaScript, HTML/CSS, and Tailwind CSS

• Experience using the WordPress REST API or custom endpoints

• Familiarity with state management tools like Redux or Context
