We are aThemes and we make awesome WordPress themes (and a few plugins). We are looking for a talented full-stack WordPress developer to join our small but growing team. Our flagship theme with thousands of customers is Sydney Pro (the free version is available on WordPress.org if you'd like to take a look at the code: https://wordpress.org/themes/sydney/).
We are looking for someone to join our team and help us improve what we are already doing but also develop new products and launch them.
We need help with updates, new plugins to extend the functionality of our themes (e.g. a plugin that extends a theme's WooCommerce capabilities), and developing new products (e.g. a new theme based on Gutenberg) from scratch.

What you will do:
- Contribute to work on new themes and plugins
- Updating existing themes with new features and code improvements
- Fixing bugs
- Maintaining and optimising athemes.com (including implementing design changes and new functionality as required)

- Experience coding custom WordPress themes and plugins from scratch
- Expert level HTML, CSS (SCSS/SASS)
- Strong familiarity with JavaScript (vanilla and jQuery)
- Experience working with major plugins like WooCommerce and Elementor
- Strong familiarity and experience with Gutenberg, the block editor
- Experience using Git and GitHub
- You have a consistent coding style and passion for well-organized, clean code
- Ability to convert UI designs (Figma, Adobe XD, Photoshop) to functional code
- Knowledge of Full Site Editing (due to land in WordPress core in the second half of 2021)
Nice to haves
- Published theme/plugin author (or contributor) on a major WordPress marketplace like the .org repo or Envato
- Experience with Gutenberg block development and React
Benefits
- Competitive compensation (we are looking to hire in the $30 to $50 an hour range)
- Have a big impact as part of a small, nimble team
- High level of autonomy
- Flexible hours
We expect this role to take around 30 hours a week.
