šŸ“Œ Location: Remote (Global) | Team: Development | Type: Full-time


Own the WordPress practice. Build it right. Scale it responsibly.

Be the person who turns WordPress into a dependable, high-quality delivery engine for high-growth B2B companies.


Why this role exists

ThunderClap is a branding-led design agency. We’ve scaled from 0 to 33 people and $1.8 Million revenue - in under two years.

We started as a Webflow-first agency and today, we partner with fast-growing B2B companies on websites that support positioning, content, and growth - not just visuals.

As client needs expand beyond Webflow, WordPress has become a recurring requirement - especially for content-heavy sites, performance-sensitive builds, and teams that already operate inside WordPress.

We want to build this capability deliberately.

That means clear technical standards, strong architecture, and long-term ownership. This role exists to create and lead that WordPress practice from the ground up.

This is not a page-builder role. This is ownership.


What you’ll own

  • The WordPress tech stack at ThunderClap
  • Architecture decisions, not just execution
  • Code quality, performance, and scalability
  • Hiring, mentoring, and reviewing future WordPress developers


You’ll be the first WordPress specialist on the team, with the mandate to define how this function is built and scaled.


This role is for you if

  • You have 5–7+ years of hands-on WordPress experience, with a strong background in an agency or client-services environment.
  • You’ve led or owned WordPress projects end to end, not just executed tickets.
  • You’ve built custom themes and/or plugins and are comfortable working in PHP.
  • You have solid fundamentals in PHP, MySQL, HTML, CSS, and JavaScript.
  • You understand WordPress internals - hooks, actions, filters, REST API, and rendering flow.
  • You care deeply about performance, security, and maintainability.
  • You’ve mentored developers, reviewed code, or set standards for others.
  • You communicate clearly with designers, PMs, and clients, and can explain trade-offs without hiding behind jargon.


Responsibilities

  • Architect and build WordPress websites ranging from marketing sites to complex, content-heavy builds.
  • Own WordPress-only projects end to end in an agency setup - timelines, scope changes, and client communication included.
  • Design and maintain custom themes and reusable components.
  • Ensure best practices across performance, security, accessibility, and SEO.
  • Collaborate closely with design, accounts and marketing teams for clean, predictable execution.
  • Define standards, workflows, and documentation for WordPress work at ThunderClap.
  • Mentor, review, and eventually manage future WordPress developers.
  • Manage freelancers or contractors when required and maintain quality.

If your experience is limited to assembling themes and plugins without touching PHP or architecture decisions, this won’t be a fit.


Why should you join us?

Join a company that is already winning.

ThunderClap is not an early-stage agency experimenting with delivery. We’ve scaled to $1.8M in revenue in under two years, completely bootstrapped, working with companies like Amazon, Razorpay, and Z47. We know how to sell, scope, and deliver serious web work. This role is about building on that foundation, not fixing chaos.


Build a practice, not just websites.

This isn’t a role where you ship a site and move on. You’ll define how WordPress work is done at ThunderClap - architecture standards, quality benchmarks, performance expectations, and delivery discipline. You’ll see patterns across projects and turn them into systems.


Work across diverse clients, use cases, and constraints.

You’ll work on content-heavy marketing sites, performance-sensitive builds, and WordPress setups designed to integrate with existing internal teams. Different industries, different maturity levels, different constraints. You won’t be boxed into one type of build.


Peers who care about craft.

This is a high-bar team. Designers, developers, and strategists here care deeply about quality and long-term thinking. You won’t be the only one pushing for cleaner code, better performance, or clearer standards.


Team Over Business, Business Over Clients

We care about our people more than profit. We never sacrifice our team for numbers or clients. Only when we grow internally can we sustainably serve others.
