Senior Web Developer Programmer Jobs in New York

The way most marketing teams build on the web hasn't changed much in over a decade. We think there's a better way, and we're ready to find it.

We're hiring a Senior Web Engineer to help us rethink web production from the ground up. You'll bring deep technical judgment, a creative approach to problem solving, and the drive to build systems that make the entire organization faster and more capable. You'll assess what we have today, make smart bets on what should evolve or be replaced, and own the execution.

You'll be joining a collaborative, high-energy marketing team in one of the fastest-moving industries in tech. We're genuinely excited about what's becoming possible with modern AI and development tooling, and we want someone who shares that energy. The decisions you make will shape how our marketing and content teams operate for years to come.

• Evaluate and evolve the stack. Our site is built on WordPress and Gutenberg today. You'll maintain and improve what we have while actively re-assessing the foundation, and charting the path forward.
• Build systems, not just pages. Design reusable infrastructure, templates, and workflows that empower the marketing team to launch and update pages independently.
• Partner closely with designers and stakeholders. Collaborate early and often to turn design files and business requests into practical, scalable web solutions. Push back constructively when there's a better path.
• Translate business needs into technical approaches. Take ambiguous or high-level requests and turn them into solutions that balance speed, accessibility (WCAG), performance (Core Web Vitals), SEO/GEO, and maintainability.
• Embed AI into how we work. Use AI tools across your own workflow and introduce repeatable AI-powered processes that accelerate web production.
• Own delivery end to end. Scope and estimate work, communicate realistic timelines, and keep stakeholders informed on progress and tradeoffs.
• Keep the site healthy and fast. Ensure pages are performant, responsive, accessible, secure, and cross-browser compatible.

• Deep front-end and architectural range. Strong HTML, CSS/SCSS, JavaScript (modern ES), and React. Solid experience with headless or API-driven architectures, and enough WordPress and Gutenberg depth to operate in our current environment while evolving it (including custom post types, taxonomies, hooks, the REST API).
• Experience working with security teams and managing sites through WP Engine or similar managed hosting platforms.
• You've changed how a web team operates, not just contributed to one. You have examples of systems, decisions, or architectural shifts and migrations you handled independently.
• You actively use AI-powered development tools like Cursor, v0, Bolt, or Claude in your daily work and have a point of view on how they can reshape web production workflows.
• You build for scale. Component libraries, templates, documentation, guardrails. The goal is a team that moves independently. 
• Strong project management instincts and communication across disciplines. You scope, prioritize, communicate timelines, and manage a varied workload.
• Comfortable with ambiguity and change. You bring options and recommendations, not just questions.
