About the company
Fynd is working with a heavy hitting globally recognised digital solutions agency specialising in WordPress publishing for mid-sized to enterprise media businesses. They focus on simplifying complex digital challenges, helping clients build, operate, and monetise publishing platforms with tailored solutions that prioritise functionality and business goals.
They provide seamless collaboration and personalised service, valuing relationships as much as technical expertise.
Building beautifully designed, neat but complex digital solutions that attracts multi-million monthly visitors is just another day in the office for this team - and with new projects pouring in off the back of accolades of historical work, the team are looking for another solid Senior WordPress Developer to help continue delivering the quality and standard they've set and are known for.
About the role
As a Full Stack WordPress Engineer you’ll have the opportunity to contribute to a wide variety of projects in various capacities, from working autonomously on new features or maintenance for their existing clients or as an integral part of the project teams bringing enterprise-level projects to life for some of Australia’s (and the world's) most recognisable brands.
As such, Full Stack Engineers are expected to be able to work both autonomously (with direction from their project manager) or as part of a larger team while reporting to the project's tech lead while taking part in agile ceremonies such as daily standups, sprint planning and sprint showcases.
About you
We're looking for someone with 3+ years of experience as a WordPress developer while practising both object oriented PHP (ideally utilising an MVC approach) and ES6 Javascript and React (as it pertains to Gutenberg).
You will have a thorough understanding of the WordPress request lifecycle and be equally comfortable working on backend tasks such as data migrations, custom plugin development and the REST API as implementing front-end build tools, extending and creating Gutenberg blocks and utilising CSS frameworks like Tailwind.
Ideally you’ll have experience within agency or product development teams within an agile environment and are accustomed to relevant tools such as Jira and Confluence from a project management perspective and GitHub/BitBucket ecosystems including code reviews, pull/merge requests, actions and deployment/pipeline systems.
