Why We're Hiring This Role

We're launching more direct booking websites than ever-and each plays a crucial role in our clients' success. We're looking for a talented Front End WordPress Developer who specializes in translating Figma designs into fast, elegant websites that are optimized for performance and conversion.

Who You Are

  • You bring Figma designs to life with pixel-perfect precision
  • You specialize in front-end development and love building high-converting websites that are fully optimized for both desktop and mobile experiences
  • You know Elementor Pro (or similar tools) inside out and work confidently within WordPress
  • You think in systems-layouts, hierarchy, spacing, modularity-and bring a strong sense of UI/UX design standards
  • You're comfortable navigating Figma files, interpreting design systems, and making responsive adaptations
  • You value collaboration and feedback, and enjoy refining builds to enhance performance and consistency
  • Ideally, you're based in or near Guelph, ON and open to occasional in-office days and team events-but we also welcome remote talent from anywhere in Ontario.

Summary of Role

As our WordPress Developer, you'll bring approved Figma designs to life as responsive, high-converting WordPress websites. You'll collaborate closely with our UX Design Lead to ensure accurate implementation, adapting layouts for mobile as needed before development begins. You'll also handle Property Management System (PMS) integrations via APIs, optimize technical SEO, and contribute to building scalable, modular frameworks for future projects.

Key Responsibilities

  • Transform desktop Figma prototypes into fully responsive WordPress sites using Elementor Pro
  • Adapt and optimize layouts in Figma for mobile views prior to build
  • Navigate Figma confidently to interpret design systems, extract styles, and ensure consistency
  • Enhance and maintain the HiddenGem Elementor Theme Kit (colors, styles, templates)
  • Integrate PMS platforms (e.g., Guesty) via APIs and plugin tools
  • Apply technical SEO (Core Web Vitals, metadata, image optimization)
  • Troubleshoot bugs and collaborate with design and marketing teams on iterations
  • Support our move toward a more scalable development framework (templated builds, repeatable modules)

Qualifications

  • 2+ years experience building front-end WordPress websites
  • Proficient with Elementor Pro or similar visual page builders
  • Strong understanding of HTML, CSS, and foundational JavaScript
  • Intermediate Figma skills: navigating designs, extracting layout specs, adjusting for responsiveness
  • Proven experience integrating APIs and external tools into WordPress environments
  • Knowledge of web accessibility, SEO basics, and responsive best practices
  • Solid communication skills and a proactive, collaborative mindset

Nice-to-Haves

  • Experience creating custom WordPress plugins
  • Speed optimization expertise (caching, lazy loading, etc.)
  • Knowledge of Schema markup & advanced SEO
  • Experience with Git/version control workflows

Growth Path

This isn't a placeholder role. For the right person, there's room to grow into a Lead Developer position-or shape the development function as we continue to scale.

This Role Might NOT Be the Right Fit If

  • You prefer a slower-paced environment over the energy of a growing startup
  • You're not in the habit of double-checking your work for accuracy and quality
  • You need close supervision to stay on track or meet deadlines
  • You're looking for short-term freelance projects rather than long-term growth
  • You're not curious about the bigger picture or how your work contributes to broader goals
  • You prefer working completely independently with minimal collaboration or feedback

Compensation & Perks

  • Salary: $60,000 - $80,000/year depending on experience
  • Extended health and dental benefits
  • Paid Time Off
  • Option to work from our open-concept office in Guelph
  • Occasional team outings and collaborative in-person days
  • A supportive team that values quality work and long-term growth

Our Hiring Process

  • Submit Application ( SEE BELOW)
  • Complete Assessment Task - A hands-on project that reflects work you'd do in the role
  • Intro Call - A brief introductory video call with our Operations Manager
  • Interview - A deeper conversation with our CEO, Ops Manager, and Web Team Lead
  • Reference Checks - Final step before officially joining the team
