Working knowledge of form builders (Gravity Forms, Contact Form 7, etc.).

Exposure to accessibility and QA testing tools (e.g., Lighthouse, WAVE).

Responsibilities

Build and update WordPress websites using Avada based on internal direction, wireframes, or design files.

Maintain responsive design across mobile, tablet, and desktop.

Collaborate with project managers, designers, and developers to ensure quality execution.

Who You Are

A creative thinker with a strong sense of layout, balance, and usability.

A builder who finds satisfaction in clean structure and polished results — even without custom code.
