We are seeking a WordPress Developer to translate our completed designs into a high-performance, responsive, and easily manageable website. The goal isn't just a static site; we need a robust CMS setup that allows our team to seamlessly input and update product details, descriptions, and media through a structured backend. The Mission: Design-to-Code Translation: Convert ready-made designs into pixel-perfect, responsive web pages using clean CSS, HTML, and PHP. Custom CMS Architecture: Build out the backend (utilizing Custom Post Types and Fields) so that product data is organized and easy for non-technical team members to manage. Performance Optimization: Ensure the site is lightweight, "lag-free," and optimized for speed and core web vitals. SEO Foundations: Implement best practices for search engine visibility and clean site structure. Cross-Browser Integrity: Ensure a flawless experience across all modern browsers and mobile devices. Technical Requirements: WordPress Mastery: Deep experience with the WordPress ecosystem, including theme development and database structure. The Languages: Expert-level proficiency in PHP, CSS3 (including Flexbox/Grid), and HTML5.

Responsiveness: A "mobile-first" mindset with a focus on fluid, responsive layouts. Performance Tools: Familiarity with caching, image optimization, and code minification to ensure top-tier site speed. What We're Looking For: Local Presence: You must be based in the Bayarea for in-person collaboration. Efficiency: You know how to build lean. No bloated plugins or unnecessary code. Independence: You can take a design file and a brief and return with a fully functional staging site. Strategic Thinking: You don't just follow instructions; you suggest "fresh ideas" for better UX or technical workflows. Detail Obsession: You care about the padding, the hover states, and the site's behavior on a 13-inch laptop vs. a 30-inch monitor. Bonus Skills:

• Experience with product catalog management.
• Knowledge of modern JavaScript frameworks.
• Experience with API integrations or third-party service connections.
