Job Description

Remote CMS Developer (WordPress/Drupal)

Shape the Future of Digital Experiences—From Anywhere

Have you ever visited a website and immediately recognized how seamless and intuitive the user experience feels? That’s not luck—it’s the result of developers who know that actual digital impact is more than just code. As our next Remote CMS Developer, you’ll transform ideas into experiences people love, using WordPress and Drupal to build, scale, and refine the sites that define our brand. Here, you’ll do more than ship tickets—you’ll craft the backbone for engaging, accessible, and high-performing digital platforms.

Why This Role Matters

Every click, every scroll, and every seamless integration tells a story. Your work won’t just power websites—it will empower teams, connect users globally, and support the digital strategies that drive real growth. You’ll lead custom theme development, plugin integration, and module building, ensuring that each solution you create functions not only effectively but also genuinely enhances the user experience. And because we trust you to shape workflows, your technical choices and creative decisions will have a visible, lasting impact.

What You’ll Achieve

  • Design and launch WordPress and Drupal solutions that seamlessly handle high-traffic, content-rich environments. Your builds will help thousands of users find information faster and interact effortlessly.
  • Streamline complex backend logic into clean, maintainable code. Your refactoring and custom module work will simplify processes for both users and editors, making updates a breeze.
  • Elevate accessibility and SEO by weaving in best practices from the start—your sites will look great, load fast, and rank high, whether it’s schema markup, optimized media, or responsive design.
  • Guide non-technical stakeholders to clarity—translating requirements into technical specs and technical solutions into business value.
  • Champion secure, scalable infrastructure using proven hosting and CI/CD tools. You’ll keep sites robust and resilient, so downtime is never a worry.
  • Mentor and collaborate across teams. Designers, writers, project managers—your technical vision brings everyone together for unified launches.

Who Thrives Here

You love the thrill of new releases but also find satisfaction in streamlining what already exists. It’s not just about solving problems but about anticipating needs and building for the future. You’ll fit right in if you:

  • Simplify complex ideas—whether it’s over Zoom or Slack, your explanations make sense to everyone in the room.
  • See WordPress and Drupal not just as platforms but as blank canvases for digital storytelling.
  • Enjoy both heads-down coding and energetic team sprints.
  • Approach each build with empathy—always thinking about the editor’s workflow, the end user’s journey, and the brand’s voice.

Your Toolkit

You’ll have the freedom to choose the best tech for the job, but you’re comfortable with:

  • PHP, MySQL, HTML5, CSS3, JavaScript (React, Vue, or jQuery)
  • Gutenberg and block editor development, Advanced Custom Fields, Drupal module/plugin ecosystems
  • CI/CD workflows (GitHub Actions, GitLab, Bitbucket Pipelines)
  • Cloud hosting platforms (Kinsta, WP Engine, Pantheon, Acquia)
  • Performance optimization, advanced caching, and accessibility auditing tools

Our Remote Work Philosophy

We move quickly, but you’ll always have space to focus intensely. Our async workflows give you control over your day. You’ll never be micromanaged. You’ll partner with design, engineering, and support to build unified solutions that shape our next chapter. Meetings are purposeful, documentation is clear, and outcomes matter more than hours clocked. We celebrate launches, but we also value iteration—nothing is ever truly finished, and feedback is always welcome.

Qualifications & What Sets You Apart

  • Demonstrated expertise in both WordPress and Drupal development—show us your portfolio of custom themes, modules, or plugins.
  • Firm grasp of API integrations, RESTful endpoints, and third-party tools that make CMSs more powerful.
  • You anticipate issues before they surface, proactively shaping both technical and editorial roadmaps.
  • You’re comfortable mentoring junior developers or jumping into architecture discussions with technical leads.
  • Passion for accessibility, performance, and user-centric design. Your sites don’t just function—they delight.
  • Written and spoken fluency in English is required. If you’ve led remote code reviews or presented in virtual stand-ups, that’s a plus.
