WordPress Developer Intern

Job Description

At Aviture, we believe great software doesn’t just support business—it changes what’s possible. Our clients range from startups to enterprise-level organizations, and we’re always experimenting with better ways to design, build, and deploy modern web solutions. We’re looking for a WordPress Developer Intern who’s ready to roll up their sleeves, learn fast, and make real contributions from day one.

What You'll Do:

As a WordPress Developer Intern, you'll work closely with our design, development, and marketing teams to help build and maintain beautiful, responsive websites using WordPress. This isn’t a coffee-fetching internship. We’ll treat you like part of the team, because you are.

Responsibilities:

Assist in developing, customizing, and maintaining WordPress websites and themes.

Work with ACF, custom post types, plugins, and page builders like Elementor.

Troubleshoot bugs and implement performance optimizations.

Collaborate on website content updates, landing pages, and SEO tweaks.

Learn and apply best practices in accessibility, responsiveness, and cross-browser compatibility.

Participate in code reviews and sprint planning sessions.

Document your work for future developers (and your future self).

What You'll Gain:

Hands-on experience working on real client projects.

Mentorship from experienced developers and designers.

A chance to contribute code that actually ships.

Portfolio pieces you can show off (we’ll help make sure they look great).

Duration: 3-6 months, with possibility of extension

Hours: 15-20 hours per week

Location: This position will be based out of our Omaha, NE office.

To apply, please submit your resume, portfolio (if available), and a brief cover letter explaining your interest in the position.

Requirements

What We're Looking For:

A current student or recent graduate in Computer Science, Web Development, or a related field.

Basic knowledge of WordPress, HTML, CSS, and PHP.

Familiarity with Git or version control tools is a big plus.

Curious mindset, eagerness to learn, and ability to take initiative.

Attention to detail and pride in delivering polished, working code.

Bonus Points For:

Experience with custom theme development.

Exposure to JavaScript frameworks like React or Vue.

Interest in UX/UI or digital marketing.
