Senior WordPress Developer

Build plugins and themes people actually ship with.

Full-timeRemoteCompetitive (negotiable based on experience)

We need a WordPress developer who lives in the code — not someone who drags widgets, but someone who writes clean PHP, ships custom plugins, and knows WordPress from wp-config to the REST API.

What you'll do

  • Build and maintain custom plugins and themes from scratch.
  • Work with Gutenberg blocks, custom post types, the REST API, and WooCommerce where needed.
  • Write maintainable, secure, performant code (and care about why an N+1 query is bad).
  • Ship real features and fix real bugs — fast.

What we're looking for

  • Strong PHP + WordPress internals (hooks, filters, the plugin/theme APIs).
  • Evidence of shipped work: plugins on WordPress.org, themes on ThemeForest under your name, or substantial plugin repos on GitHub. We verify this.
  • Comfort with custom development, not just page builders.

Nice to have

Published WordPress.org plugin/theme author profile, OOP/Composer/WP-CLI, React/Gutenberg, performance & security chops.

How hiring works

No endless interviews. You apply, and if it’s a fit we invite you to the Instaquirk Challenge — a short, story-driven round (~60–90 min) where you do a slice of the real job. Do well and you go straight to a final conversation.
