Are you an awesome WordPress developer with proficiency in English?
Do you know your way around WordPress, and love solving problems? Does working with a fun globalized team sound awesome to you? If you’ve wanted the freedom to work from wherever you want, you have a home at Saucal. We work on some of the largest WooCommerce stores on the internet from all around the globe.
We’re looking to fill a full-time position. The tasks would include:
- Creating solutions for customer problems
- Responding to customer requests during implementation and/or when bugs arise
- Documenting code, and using version control in Git
- Making contributions to open source projects, like WooCommerce core
- Debugging site issues
- Creating custom plugins
- Making large WooCommerce installs more performant
You must be proficient in WordPress. This includes being up to date with the coding standards (functions, hooks, performance recommendations, etc) of the community behind WordPress. The above implies that your PHP and MySQL skills are good enough to work with WP.
Also it’s important that you have experience with JS, HTML & CSS if you’re going to do frontend work (of course if you’re applying for a frontend developer position, you must master these).
Knowledge of preprocessing tools like SASS, LESS, CoffeeScript, or similar is not exclusive, but definitely a plus. We use these very often during our workflow, so if you don’t know them yet, you should consider learning them soon.
Time spent working would be around 5-8 hours per day. We’re focused on Eastern Standard Time (EST) from 11am-7pm. You can work in other parts of the world and during times you wish. However, you will need excellent time management skills, as the team meets once per day to discuss deliverables, and are available from certain time periods for customer collaboration. This means you must be present, and regularly check-in to provide us with your status. Over-communication will be key to your success. People that have great habits in place for time tracking, organization, and self-management are an ideal fit for us.
If you’re reliable, consistent and trust worthy, please apply. Any applicants who pad their resume will quickly be discovered and discarded. Our learning curve can be steep.
All applications must BYOD – bring your own device.
There are perks to the job, but we only share those once you’re on the inside (ever want to travel the world? – if you prove yourself, you will). Another is amazing, cool, funny and sweet team mates. 😉
To apply, please fill out the fields below. The following steps of the application require you to answer a set of question with a video response. You can save the form, and return at any time within 30 days.
