This role requires a combination of strong technical expertise, product thinking, and an understanding of how websites support business and marketing objectives.
Who We Are Looking For
We are looking for an engineer who enjoys building scalable content platforms and takes pride in delivering polished user experiences. You should be comfortable working across the full web stack, collaborating with non-technical stakeholders, and identifying opportunities to improve both the platform and the development process.
We'll Trust You To
  • Design, build, and maintain scalable WordPress solutions that support Bloomberg's marketing initiatives.
  • Develop reusable Gutenberg components and editor experiences using React and modern JavaScrip / Typescript.
  • Partner with design and marketing teams to translate requirements into responsive, accessible, and high-performing web experiences.
  • Improve website performance, Core Web Vitals, accessibility, and technical SEO.
  • Contribute to platform architecture, development standards, testing, and deployment practices.
  • Troubleshoot production issues and continuously improve reliability and maintainability across the platform.
You'll Need To Have
  • 5+ years of professional experience developing and maintaining WordPress applications and websites.
  • Strong experience with Gutenberg block development and React.
  • Proficiency with PHP, JavaScript (ES6+), HTML, and CSS.
  • Experience collaborating with cross-functional teams including design, product, and marketing stakeholders.
  • A Bachelor's degree in Computer Science, Engineering, Mathematics, or a related field, or equivalent professional experience.

We'd Love To See
  • Familiarity with ReactJS or other modern frontend frameworks.
  • Experience with analytics, experimentation, and marketing technologies such as GA4 and Optimizely.
  • Knowledge of CI/CD pipelines, automated testing, and modern development workflows.
  • Demonstrated ownership of business-critical web products and the ability to drive initiatives from concept to delivery.

Salary Range = 160,000 - 240,000 USD Annual + Benefits + Bonus
The referenced salary range is based on the Company's good faith belief at the time of posting. Actual compensation may vary based on factors such as geographic location, work experience, market conditions, education/training and skill level.
We offer one of the most comprehensive and generous benefits plans available and offer a range of total rewards that may include merit increases, incentive compensation (exempt roles only), paid holidays, paid time off, medical, dental, vision, short and long term disability benefits, 401(k) +match, life insurance, and various wellness programs, among others.
