The Role (This Is a Doer Role)

We’re looking for a strong WordPress Web Developer who can build, fix, optimize, and deliver. This is a hands-on execution role for someone who enjoys being in the work—not managing people, not climbing a ladder.

You should be comfortable owning builds end-to-end, jumping into issues without hesitation, and delivering websites that are:

• Visually polished
• Technically sound
• SEO-friendly
• Fast, stable, and conversion-ready

No offshore candidates or agencies. Preference for Colorado-based , open to U.S.-based candidates.

**
**

What You’ll Be Responsible For

• Building new WordPress websites and redesigns
• Maintaining, updating, and repairing existing sites (including urgent issues)
• Writing clean, well-structured, documented code
• Implementing SEO best practices during development (not as an afterthought)
• Integrating Google tools (GA4, Search Console, Tag Manager, etc.)
• Managing hosting environments, migrations, DNS, and domains
• Collaborating with designers and marketers to execute approved designs and strategies
• Communicating clearly with non-technical clients to gather requirements
• Managing multiple sites and deadlines without quality slipping
• Responding quickly when a site breaks— this matters
• This is not a typical 8am-5pm role but expected to respond to clients and address needs during standard business hours

**
**

Required Skills & Experience

• 5+ years of web development experience
• 3+ years of WordPress-focused development
• Strong full-stack WordPress capability (themes, plugins, customization)
• Solid HTML and CSS skills
• Comfortable working server-side to support WordPress
• Strong understanding of SEO fundamentals related to site structure, performance, and content
• Working knowledge of Google Analytics (GA4), Google Search Console , and related tools
• Experience with hosting platforms and DNS/zone records
• Able to juggle multiple projects and priorities
• Reliable, responsive, and accountable
• Comfortable working independently with minimal oversight

**
**

Nice to Have (Not Required)

• Experience with Astra Pro, Elementor, and Formidable Forms
• eCommerce, ticketing, or payment system experience
• Performance optimization and page speed tuning
• Strong design instincts and attention to visual detail

**
**

What This Is Not

• Not a leadership or management role
• Not a strategy-only role
• Not a “handholding” environment
• Not a place for slow executors

This role is for someone who likes producing great work and moving on to the next build.

**
**

What We Need From You

• Resume (cover letter optional)
• Portfolio or examples of recent WordPress work
• Must be U.S.-based and authorized to work in the United States

Why Work With CGM?

• Clear expectations
• Clean builds
• Respect for craftsmanship
• Flexibility without chaos
• Work that matters and ships
