WordPress Developer – Job Description

At Lotus Digital, WordPress is not used as a quick-fix website builder. It’s a flexible, scalable platform that powers business websites, landing pages, and growth-focused digital experiences for local businesses, service-based B2B companies, B2C brands, and global clients.

As a WordPress Developer, you’ll play a critical role in turning design, SEO, and performance strategies into technically sound, high-performing websites. You’ll work closely with UI/UX designers, SEO specialists, and performance marketers to ensure every build supports speed, usability, conversions, and long-term scalability.

This role is ideal for developers who understand that modern WordPress development goes far beyond themes and plugins. We’re looking for someone who thinks in terms of architecture, performance, security, and maintainability—especially in a fast-moving startup agency environment.
