About 1-Stop Design

We’re a full-service creative and marketing agency helping businesses grow through branding, websites, digital campaigns, and custom marketing solutions.

We're a nimble, collaborative team that believes design and function should always work together.

The Role

We’re looking for a WordPress Web Developer who’s confident in both front-end creative and back-end programming—with an expert-level command of WordPress. You’ll help us plan, design, build, launch, and maintain websites for a variety of clients—from small local businesses to national brands.

You should have a strong grasp of modern development standards, mobile-first design, custom WordPress theme/plugin development, and third-party integrations. You'll collaborate closely with our designers, content team, and project coordinator to bring fully custom websites to life.

Build and maintain custom WordPress websites using modern development practices

Develop custom themes and plugins when off-the-shelf tools don’t cut it

Translate Figma, Adobe XD or Adobe Photoshop designs into responsive, pixel-perfect code

Manage CMS structure, admin UX, and custom fields using ACF or similar tools

Implement third-party APIs and integrations (e.g. CRMs, booking tools, ecommerce)

Optimize sites for performance, accessibility, and SEO best practices

Building and managing online stores using WooCommerce or other e-commerce solutions

Support ongoing maintenance, updates, and security for client sites

Collaborate with designers, project managers, and marketing teams to plan features and timelines

Diagnosing and resolving website issues, including performance problems and security vulnerabilities

Conduct regular audits to ensure functionality and reliability
