About the Role

rtCamp is looking for a talented Front-End WordPress Engineer with strong experience in WordPress theme development and modern JavaScript frameworks.

This is a full-time, remote role open to candidates worldwide.

Key Responsibilities

• Adapt third-party designs for WordPress, ensuring a balance between design accuracy and long-term maintainability.
• Write and manage theme-related PHP code to ensure seamless integration with WordPress templating system.
• Contribute to decoupled WordPress projects, using WordPress REST API/GraphQL as the backend and React/Next.js for the frontend with team support provided.
• Build custom Gutenberg blocks with clean, efficient code and a focus on exceptional user experience.

Must-Have Skills

• Strong CSS expertise, including deep understanding of CSS internals and experience with preprocessors like SASS.
• Proficiency in core JavaScript (ES6/ESNext), with optional jQuery experience for simpler themes.
• Basic proficiency in PHP, particularly related to WordPress theme development.
• Solid experience with React for developing custom Gutenberg blocks.
• Deep understanding of WordPress architecture, including template hierarchy, the loop, Customizer API, and Settings API.
• Experience with setting up and managing modern JavaScript build tools such as Webpack, Babel, NPM, and others.

Nice-to-Have Skills

While these are optional, highlighting any of the following in your application will strengthen your profile and accelerate the hiring process:

• Experience with Full Site Editing (FSE) and Block-Based theme development.
• Familiarity with web accessibility best practices.
• Advanced knowledge of React beyond Gutenberg development.
• Exposure to other front-end frameworks/libraries apart from React.
