Solve Problems. Grow Your Skills.\n\nBrevard SEM is a digital marketing and web development agency in Melbourne, Florida, and we’re looking for a hands-on WordPress developer to join our in-house team.\n\nWe’re looking for someone who enjoys building websites, solving problems, learning new technology, and getting things done.\n\nYou don’t need to know everything. You do need to have real WordPress experience, a solid understanding of how websites work, and the confidence to jump into existing projects.\n\nYou’ll work alongside experienced designers, developers, and digital marketing professionals who can help you expand your skills while you contribute to real client projects.\n\nWe care more about your ability, initiative, and willingness to learn than the number of years on your résumé.\n\nWhat You’ll Be Doing\n\nYou’ll be involved in a variety of website projects for businesses across different industries.\n\n* Building and updating WordPress websites for new and existing clients.\n* Troubleshooting website problems, plugin conflicts, layout issues, and functionality.\n* Maintaining client websites, including updates, backups, and performance improvements.\n* Creating new pages, landing pages, forms, and website features.\n* Working on ecommerce websites, including WooCommerce and Shopify.\n* Making changes to existing websites, including projects built by other developers.\n* Turning designs and creative direction from our team into responsive, functional websites.\n* Working with hosting platforms, domains, website migrations, and staging environments.\n* Helping improve website speed, mobile usability, and overall performance.\n* Testing your work carefully before updates go live.\n* Collaborating with our team to complete projects efficiently and meet deadlines.\n\nYou’ll have a mix of new builds, ongoing improvements, and technical troubleshooting. We value someone who can stay organized, move between projects, and take initiative when challenges arise.\n\nWhat We’re Looking For\n\nWordPress experience is essential. You should already be comfortable working in WordPress, building pages, managing plugins, making website changes, and troubleshooting common issues.\n\nBeyond that, we’re looking for someone who has:\n\n* A solid understanding of website structure, functionality, and responsive design.\n* Working knowledge of HTML and CSS, with an interest in developing broader coding skills.\n* Experience building and maintaining professional websites, not just updating content.\n* The ability to investigate problems, research solutions, and follow through.\n* Good attention to detail and pride in producing polished work.\n* Strong organizational skills and the ability to complete assigned tasks promptly.\n* Clear communication skills and a willingness to work closely with a team.\n* The motivation to learn new platforms, tools, and development techniques.\n\nAdditional skills we’d love to see, but don’t require:\n\n* Shopify and WooCommerce experience.\n* JavaScript, PHP, or custom WordPress development.\n* WordPress Gutenberg, Advanced Custom Fields, or custom themes.\n* Git, GitHub, and version control.\n* Hosting management, DNS, and website migrations.\n* Website speed optimization and technical SEO.\n* Figma or experience implementing professional website designs.\n* React, Next.js, or other modern web development technologies.\n* Experience using AI-assisted development tools.\n\nIf you have strong WordPress skills but haven’t worked with every platform on this list, we still encourage you to apply.\n\nA Little About How We Work\n\nWe believe good websites require more than installing a template and changing a few pictures. We appreciate developers who understand how websites function, care about performance, and are willing to learn better ways of building things. We don’t rely exclusively on drag-and-drop page builders, although experience with those tools can still be useful. We’re also enthusiastic about AI-assisted development. We use modern tools to work smarter and faster, but we believe developers should understand what they’re building and be able to recognize and fix problems independently. You won’t be expected to figure everything out alone. Our experienced team is available to collaborate, provide direction, and help you expand your technical knowledge.\n\nWho Would Do Well Here?\n\nSomeone who enjoys technology and naturally looks for solutions. You might be a relatively new developer with strong practical skills, or someone who’s been building websites for years and wants to work in a more collaborative environment. What matters most is that you:\n\n* Take initiative and don’t need constant reminders to move work forward.\n* Enjoy solving problems and learning how things work.\n* Ask good questions when you need help.\n* Can manage your time and complete work without unnecessary delays.\n* Communicate progress and take responsibility for your work.\n* Want to become better at what you do.\n\nWhy Join Brevard SEM?\n\nWe’re an established digital marketing agency working with businesses across a variety of industries. Joining our team means you’ll gain exposure to much more than WordPress. You’ll have opportunities to learn about ecommerce, digital marketing, search engine optimization, website performance, analytics, design, and modern web technologies. You’ll work directly with experienced professionals who are happy to share their knowledge, while gaining hands-on experience with real client websites and meaningful projects. We encourage curiosity, new ideas, professional growth, and the responsible use of modern technology. This is a long-term opportunity for someone who wants to develop their career and become an important part of our team.\n\nPosition Details\n\n* Location: Melbourne, FL (Brevard County)\n* Work environment: In-office, working directly with our team\n* Employment: Full-time\n* Schedule: Monday through Friday, regular business hours\n* Compensation: $20–$30 per hour, based on experience and demonstrated skills\n* Start: We’re actively interviewing and looking to fill the position soon\n\nHow to Apply\n\nSend us your résumé along with two or three examples of websites you’ve built or substantially worked on.
