Pangolia: Lead WordPress Developer for Fast-Growing Pet Company (Remote/Worldwide)
Headquarters: Singapore
URL: https://pangolia.com
???? Are you a talented web developer who loves WordPress? And do you get excited about building new features that will be used by millions of pet lovers every month? Then this could very well be the opportunity for you!
We’re Pangolia—one of the fastest-growing pet companies, and we’re on a mission to create the biggest, most helpful pet company in the world. Our largest sites: Catster.com, Dogster.com, Hepper.com, and PetKeen.com are visited by more than 60 million pet lovers every year, and we’re undergoing rapid growth.
Our media sites are all built on WordPress, and our own cat furniture e-commerce brand, Hepper, is running on WooCommerce.
In this position you would be the lead web developer, which will consist of fixing the issues that come up, proactively keeping our sites secure, and building new things.
2. Build out the Hepper.com e-commerce experience: revamping checkout pages, category pages, product listings, and making sure that data analytics on Hepper is properly configured.
3. Clearing the big backlog of tasks that has piled up over the last couple of months. We are behind, and we have lots to do, so it’s important that you hit the ground running!
– Making the webdev department kickass: catching up with the backlog of tasks, and being an amazing communicator.
– Developing new tools and software that help millions of pet lovers every month (could for example be to develop a Puppy Weight Chart Tool / Calculator that helps pet owners predict how fast, and how big their dog will grow)
– Create, review, and update technical documentation such as contributing to our development processes, QA procedures, and technical planning
– Performing scheduled and non-scheduled maintenance and security updates on our WordPress sites
– Be informed of relevant new technology and best practices
- Experience with HTML, CSS, JavaScript/jQuery, and PHP
- Experience with MySQL and managing databases
- Experience with WordPress development (e.g. themes, hooks, filters, plugin API, etc)
- Experience with build tools like Webpack or ViteJS
- Experience with Composer and a basic understanding of autoloading, dependency management, and dependency injection
- Experience with SSH and comfortable with basic terminal usage
- Experience with Git (and GitHub)
- Troubleshooting abilities (ie include finding CSS and JavaScript conflicts using browser developer tools, navigating codebases in theme and plugins, and determining whether a plugin or theme code could be causing a code conflict)
- The ability to take a project on your own and get it done before the deadline
- Strong communication skills. This is a MUST as we work remotely. (most of our communication is written in Slack with occasional calls)
⛱️ 21 days of paid time off every year
- Every Monday, we have a one-on-one Zoom meeting to discuss our goals, whether you are meeting your goals, what went well, what did not go well, and so on.
- You would work directly with the CEO, Simon, who trusts you with your responsibility areas and empowers you to come up with and for you to find the solutions. In other words: this role has a lot of freedom for you to work in the way that you think is best for the company. Simon and the team do not micromanage and have no interest in doing so.
- You’re also responsible for maintaining the Github repository of the project you’re working on, committing/pushing/documenting your changes, commenting on your code, and writing SOPs or technical documentation (if necessary). It doesn’t have to be pages long and can be very short and concise. But, as a developer, it makes life so much easier if you can return to your code in the future without having to think too hard about what you did. This is also about being considerate of your teammates’ time.
- There must be some overlap in our working hours so you can respond to urgent requests (if any) or chat with your manager or any of our departments on demand if they have an IT question. This means that some extra tasks may arise during the week.
- You might have a day where one of our team members needs something urgent and needs it done the same or the next day, which can be valuable to the company, or a major issue needs to be fixed ASAP, in which case you might have to drop what you’re working on and work on that. If your main project’s deadline cannot be met because of this (which is understandable), you should be able to communicate this on time.
- However, most of the time you are able to work on your main projects in solitary. We understand that developers need complete focus. You can also chat and ask questions in our Slack channels.
