Front End Web Developer Position - WordPress Expert.

Job Overview

Passionate about building beautiful websites in WordPress? We have a desirable opening for a technically skilled front‑end web developer. Our ideal new team member enjoys interactivity and strives to build beautiful and engaging user experiences on each and every project. You will not only be working directly with clients solo but will also enjoy collaborating on projects with other Xynergy team members.

The content management systems we primarily work in are WordPress, Magento, and Expression Engine. We are currently looking for someone with substantial experience in WordPress who is willing to learn the other systems over time once hired. You should have performed projects containing jQuery, Ajax, parallax and be able to show examples of work you have done with these technologies.

Xynergy developers aren't afraid to juggle and multi‑task, hit tight deadlines – and we have fun doing it. We are pro‑active and responsible team members, supporting each other and actively participating in learning new techniques.

Improve your quality of life. This is an excellent opportunity to join an outstanding, award‑winning development team in a community famous for its world‑class art, culture and outdoor recreation. Enjoy your life AND enjoy work. Your projects change regularly and our clients/projects come from various industries too.

Our web developers are web enthusiasts first, with great ideas and creativity. They love online communication as much as they love elegantly architected methods and classes. And, outside the office, most of us are avid enjoyers of the amazing skiing, camping, rafting, hiking and many other outdoor activities the area has an abundance of.

We welcome freelance candidates who are ready to make the change from solo projects to steady hours in a team environment.
