    Default job background
    Description

    We engage the most inspired minds to do their best work wherever they work best-powering the freedom to create worldwide.

    WP Engine is the most trusted WordPress technology company, powering over 1.5M digital experiences in 150+ countries for businesses of all sizes. WP Engine's all-in-one platform enables customers to design, build, power, and manage extraordinary WordPress, eCommerce, and headless sites-all thanks to a nonstop commitment to innovation, award-winning WordPress expertise, and a set of core values that guides us every day.

    The Role in a Nutshell

    We need a capable web developer skilled in modern WordPress development and React to join the team reshaping the public face of WP Engine. This developer will work with other developers, designers, and partners across our Marketing department to build the high-traffic, high-performance, high-visibility sites we are responsible for, running on both headless and traditional WordPress.

    What's cool about this job

    Web Developers in WP Engine's Marketing department work remotely for a well-known, growing WordPress company. They use some of the very latest technologies in a friendly and supportive team of expert developers. The development team works alongside our internal partners to build our company's public presence. We also support our company internally by sharing our expertise and knowledge with other parts of the business. We are working to improve our sites and technology because we believe "Design Matters" and that we should be "Built for Growth" (check out the "Core Values" section of ).

    We are constantly improving our web experience, from our primary website (a headless WordPress application built on top of the WP Engine Atlas platform), to our other branded sites using traditional WordPress.
