WordPress Developer (Elementor Expert)

WordPress Developer (Elementor Expert)

Intellibright

Austin, TX

Contractor

Posted 25 days ago


Job description

WordPress Developer (Elementor Expert) - Contract-to-Hire (6 Months)

Location: Austin, TX (Hybrid - In-Office M/W/F, Remote Tues/Thurs)
Reports To: Director of Design & Development
Team: Web Development / Delivery

The Opportunity

Intellibright is looking for a mid-level WordPress Developer with expert-level Elementor experience to help build, optimize, and maintain high-performing marketing websites and landing pages for our clients.

If you move fast without breaking things, care about clean implementation, and know how to get the most out of Elementor (Theme Builder, global systems, dynamic content, performance)-this role is for you. You'll work closely with designers, strategists, SEO, and paid media teams to ship conversion-focused experiences that are measurable and reliable.

This is a 6-month contract-to-hire role with a hybrid schedule requiring in-office collaboration 3 days per week.

About Intellibright

Intellibright is a performance-driven digital marketing agency built around accountability and close client partnerships. We believe that if something does not tie back to revenue, it does not matter.

Our proprietary revenue analytics connect marketing activity to pipeline, sales, and revenue across channels.

Recognized by Inc. 5000 and the Financial Times 500 as one of the fastest growing companies in the Americas five years running, Intellibright is a high performance agency headquartered in Austin, Texas.

What You Will Own
  • Build and maintain WordPress websites and landing pages primarily using Elementor (Theme Builder, templates, global widgets, reusable sections, dynamic content).
  • Implement design comps into pixel-clean, responsive pages with strong attention to spacing, typography, and consistency.
  • Create and enforce maintainable Elementor systems (global styles, design tokens, template standards, component reuse).
  • Configure and manage WordPress foundations: theme settings, plugins, environments, user roles, backups, and site hygiene.
  • Work with ACF and custom post types/taxonomies to support scalable content and dynamic page builds.
  • Troubleshoot complex Elementor + WordPress issues (layout bugs, responsiveness, plugin conflicts, performance bottlenecks).
  • Improve site performance (Core Web Vitals, caching, image optimization, asset loading, reducing Elementor bloat).
  • Implement marketing integrations: forms, tracking, analytics, tag manager support, CRM/email tooling integrations.
  • Support QA, staging-to-production releases, and documentation to keep delivery predictable across multiple client sites.
What Success Looks Like
  • Elementor builds are clean, consistent, reusable, and easy for the team to maintain.
  • Pages launch quickly without sacrificing quality, responsiveness, or performance.
  • Core templates, global styles, and component libraries reduce rework and speed up delivery.
  • Performance improves over time (faster load, fewer layout shifts, better CWV).
  • Issues are diagnosed efficiently and resolved with clear communication and strong ownership.
  • Stakeholders (design, strategy, SEO, paid media) feel supported because implementation is reliable and proactive.
  • Multiple projects can move forward in parallel because you can prioritize and execute without constant oversight.
Why This Role Matters

At Intellibright, strong strategy only creates value if it is executed well.

This role ensures our web experiences-often the center of a client's acquisition and conversion funnel-are built with speed, precision, and performance in mind. The WordPress Developer (Elementor Expert) turns creative and marketing direction into real, measurable outcomes by shipping pages that load fast, track correctly, and convert.

For the right person, this is an opportunity to be a key driver of website delivery quality in a high-performance agency where execution is just as important as ideas.

Requirements

What We Are Looking For
  • 3+ years of professional WordPress development experience (agency / multi-client work strongly preferred).
  • Expert-level Elementor experience: Theme Builder, templates, global widgets, responsive workflows, dynamic content, and system-based building.
  • Strong grasp of WordPress fundamentals (themes/plugins, WP admin, troubleshooting, content modeling).
  • Pro-level front-end implementation skills (HTML/CSS + enough JavaScript to debug and integrate confidently).
  • Proven ability to optimize WordPress/Elementor sites for performance (CWV, caching, asset optimization, image strategy).
  • Comfortable working across multiple projects and collaborating with cross-functional teams.
  • Clear communicator-able to explain tradeoffs, timelines, and technical constraints without drama.
  • Must be Austin-based or willing to relocate (hybrid schedule requires in-person work 3 days/week).
Nice to Have
  • ACF + custom post types/taxonomies depth (content modeling, dynamic Elementor builds).
  • Experience extending Elementor (custom widgets, hooks, custom functionality).
  • WooCommerce experience (especially with Elementor).
  • Familiarity with managed hosting (WP Engine/Kinsta), CDN setups, and deployment workflows (Git/staging).

Benefits

Compensation and Engagement
  • Engagement Type: Contract-to-hire
  • Contract Duration: 6 months
  • Hours: 30-40/week
  • Pay: Competitive, based on experience (hourly or salary conversion upon hire)
