TeamUpdraft is seeking an ambitious and highly competent Web Developer with experience in PHP, JS, JQuery, and WordPress.
The company is known for its plugins such as UpdraftPlus, WP-Optimize, and All-In-One-Security, which are used by over 6 million websites worldwide.
The role involves collaborating with others on the codebase to implement new features, bug fixes, and improvements.
Developers will work in JavaScript, PHP, and WordPress libraries to write clean, efficient, and secure code.
Responsibilities include writing inline documentation for code, testing, producing testing guides, managing time to fulfill tasks, and researching/debugging problems independently or in collaboration with other developers and the support team.
Exact responsibilities will depend on the candidate's experience and team dynamics.
Requirements:
Candidates must have experience with JavaScript and JQuery, which are essential for UpdraftCentral.
Strong skills in PHP are required, as it is the core language of WordPress.
Experience in WordPress plugin development or solutions built around WordPress is essential.
Familiarity with GitHub, GitLab, or Git is a nice-to-have, but candidates can learn quickly if they are accustomed to alternatives like SVN.
Experience in prefetching data and optimizing plugin performance is also a plus.
Benefits:
The position allows for remote work from anywhere, accommodating team members across every continent except Antarctica.
Candidates based in the United Kingdom have the option to join the team at a co-working space in Newport, Wales.
Opportunities to attend annual WordCamp events in Europe, Asia, or the US may be available.
