Web Developer

About Fixel

Fixel is a digital studio specializing in helping B2B tech companies design, build, and maintain their websites. We focus on custom websites for startups and scale-ups in the cybersecurity and tech space. Our clients depend on us for ongoing design support, strategic guidance, and high-quality CMS development.

We’re a small, fully remote team that values delivering excellent work, collaborating openly, and maintaining good vibes.

The Role

We’re looking for a Web Developer to join our development team and take real ownership of both new builds and ongoing client work. This isn’t a maintenance-only role. You’ll take full projects from kickoff to launch, as well as maintain and enhance existing sites, add features, and handle technical support.

We’re also expanding what we build. Alongside WordPress and Statamic, we’re growing our capability in Webflow and Framer, and leaning into AI tools to work faster without sacrificing quality. We want someone excited to build with us as we move into new areas, not just execute what’s already well-defined.

You’ll work closely with our team, but you’ll also need to be comfortable owning projects and managing your workload independently.

What You’ll Be Doing

Owning full website builds from kickoff through launch

Maintaining and enhancing existing WordPress sites (adding blocks, pages, features, functionality)

Building custom WordPress blocks with ACF and the block editor, and knowing when to reach for core blocks or extend them instead of going custom

Modeling content properly with custom post types, taxonomies, and field structures that fit how each site actually works

Handling site migrations and technical troubleshooting

Plugin updates and compatibility testing

Developing responsive, accessible, and performant front-end code

Bringing sites to life with code-based animations and micro-interactions that add polish and delight without sacrificing performance

Using AI tools to speed up development without cutting corners on quality

Communicating with clients on project updates

Collaborating with designers, developers, and strategists to deliver great work

What You’ll Need

Required:

3-5+ years of professional WordPress development experience

Experience taking projects from initial build through launch, not just maintenance

Strong custom WordPress theme development skills (block-based themes, not page builders)

Expert-level HTML, CSS, and JavaScript

Experience with ACF (Advanced Custom Fields) and the WordPress block editor, plus good judgment about content architecture (custom post types, taxonomies, meta)

Experience with Tailwind, and comfort with AlpineJS for frontend interactivity

Solid understanding of responsive design, accessibility, and performance optimization

Proven ability to step into existing projects and quickly adapt to different coding styles and architectural patterns

Hands-on experience with WordPress troubleshooting tools and methods (WP_DEBUG, Query Monitor, server logs, etc.)

Comfortable with Git and version control

Active use of AI tools (Claude, Copilot, or similar) in your development workflow

Strong communication skills and ability to work independently

Great attention to detail when building from Figma designs

Self-driven, adaptable, and genuinely curious about new tools and ways of working

Bonus points:

Webflow and/or Framer experience

Experience with animation libraries (GSAP, Framer Motion, or similar) and an eye for the small details that make a site feel crafted, not templated

Laravel and/or Statamic experience

Agency or client services background

Experience working with B2B tech companies

Familiarity with WordPress VIP or enterprise WordPress environments

Work Environment

Fully remote position

2-3 hours overlap with Central Time (US)

Collaborative team environment using Slack, ClickUp, and Figma

Opportunity to grow into more senior development roles as the team expands

Work with a small, friendly team that values quality and supports each other

Why Fixel?

Own real projects start to finish, not just tickets

Work on exciting projects with growing B2B tech startups

Join a team that holds itself to a high standard (“Fixel perfect” work)

Be part of expanding what we build, into Webflow, Framer, and AI-driven workflows

Collaborative, supportive culture with experienced developers

Consistent, steady work with quality clients

Fully remote with flexibility

Real opportunity for professional growth as we grow
