The ideal candidate will have strong experience developing custom WordPress solutions using  PHP , along with hands-on  GraphQL experience and working knowledge of  React.js .The engineer will work across WordPress CMS and editorial workflows, APIs consumed by web and mobile applications, and React-based frontend experiences in a high-traffic production environment.

Core Responsibilities :-

  • Develop and maintain custom WordPress themes, plugins, blocks, post types, taxonomies, editorial workflows, and page templates.
  • Build reusable, accessible React components and page experiences for article, video, live event, community, hub, and subscription surfaces.
  • Design, implement, document, and evolve GraphQL schemas, queries, mutations, resolvers, caching, and API contracts for web and mobile consumers.

  • Use WP-CLI and WordPress VIP tooling to diagnose publishing, caching, cron, content-sync, rewrite, and GraphQL-cache issues.
  • Work directly with editorial and operations teams to improve CMS usability without compromising system reliability or site performance.

  • Deep knowledge of WordPress content modeling: custom post types, custom fields/meta, taxonomies, Gutenberg blocks, revision/publishing workflows, redirects, and search/indexing.
  • Experience debugging production issues across CMS, frontend, API, caching, and external integrations.
  • Strong understanding of web accessibility (WCAG), responsive design, SEO fundamentals, Core Web Vitals, and secure development practices.
  • Ability to communicate clearly with non-engineering partners and write maintainable technical documentation.

Strongly Preferred :-

  • Media, publishing, streaming, newsroom, or other high-traffic consumer-web experience.
  • Live-streaming or VOD integrations, DRM-protected content, identity/authentication, and subscription/entitlement flows.
  • Experience with Node.js, build tooling, CI/CD, Docker, cloud services, and observability tooling.
  • Experience with Elasticsearch/search, CDN/image optimization, ad-tech, analytics, and community/commenting platforms.
  • Experience supporting mobile teams through GraphQL contracts, mocks/schema introspection, versioning, and integration testing.
  • Familiarity with performance/load testing and cache invalidation strategies.
