You should be able to:
“Own the whole build — from UX/frontend through to backend, performance, and integrations”
What you’ll be doing
Build and enhance WordPress websites (primarily WordPress + WooCommerce)
Handle complex WooCommerce setups
Debug performance issues, plugin conflicts, and edge cases
Implement custom features properly (no hacks or shortcuts)

Must-have technical skills
WordPress / WooCommerce
Advanced WooCommerce setups (products, variations, shipping, checkout customisation)
Payment gateways and custom flows
Plugin conflict resolution and site stability
Development
Strong PHP + WordPress best practices (hooks, filters, custom templates)
Theme development and modification (child themes, overrides)
API integrations (REST APIs, webhooks, third-party tools)
Solid frontend skills (HTML, CSS, JS) for UX implementation and debugging
Performance & Quality
Core Web Vitals optimisation (caching, assets, image optimisation, etc.)
Technical SEO fundamentals (schema, indexing, redirects)
Debugging (logs, database issues, error tracing)
Comfortable with staging and deployment workflows
Page Builder Experience (Required)
You must be comfortable working with:
Elementor
WPBakery
Divi
Kadence
YOOtheme
Gutenberg (block editor)
And able to go beyond builders when needed.
How you work
Strong independent problem solver
Can take a task from brief to delivery without hand-holding
Clear communicator (updates, timelines, questions)
Reliable and consistent
Strong English
Ideally able to work within or close to Australian business hours
Application Requirement (Important)
To apply, please include:
1. Loom Video (required)
Record a short Loom (3–5 mins) covering:
Your experience with WordPress and WooCommerce
How you approach frontend UX and backend development
Walk through 3–5 Australian websites you like and explain why they are well built (UX, performance, structure, etc.)
Why you would be a strong fit for this role
2. Project Examples
2–3 recent WordPress / WooCommerce projects
What you specifically handled
Any complex challenges solved
3. Details
Your hourly rate (or typical project pricing)
Availability (hours/week)
Timezone / working hours
Your strongest technical areas
Final Notes
This is a long-term opportunity with consistent work.
Looking for someone who can become a key part of my team, not just a freelancer who disappears after one job.
Ready to start ASAP.
