Your primary focus is creating and maintaining high-quality pages (especially landing pages), ensuring excellent performance and reliability, managing hosting and technical operations, and handling integrations with our membership and learning ecosystem. Our stack includes WordPress, Elementor as our page builder, MemberPress for memberships/subscriptions, and multiple integrations with our LMS, Xano DB, SSO, and other tools. This role sits close to marketing and product operations and requires someone who is dependable, fast, and detail-oriented.Primary Responsibilities (Core Role) 1) Website Design & Development (WordPress + Elementor) Design and build web pages in WordPress using Elementor, with a strong focus on clean UX, responsiveness, and brand consistency. Create and maintain reusable components (sections, templates, global styles) to keep the site scalable and consistent. Ensure cross-browser and cross-device compatibility, accessibility basics, and high-quality QA before publishing. 2) Landing Pages & Campaign Builds Build high-performing landing pages for campaigns, product launches, and lead generation. Implement forms, CTAs, page sections, and page layouts provided by marketing and/or stakeholders. Maintain speed and performance best practices while building in Elementor (lightweight sections, optimized images/assets). 3) Membership & Subscription Website Operations (MemberPress) Configure and maintain MemberPress: pricing pages, checkout flow, access rules, member account pages, emails, and renewal/upgrade logic. Troubleshoot membership-related issues that affect the website experience (access, checkout errors, user journey issues). Coordinate with stakeholders to ensure membership flows reflect current business rules. 4) Integrations & Technical Connectivity (LMS, Xano DB, SSO, etc.) Maintain and troubleshoot website integrations with existing tools/platforms, including: LMS (course access, enrollment journeys, member gating) Xano DB (data flows, APIs/webhooks where applicable) SSO (authentication/login experiences, access control) Other website tools (CRM forms, email capture, chat widgets, scheduling tools, etc.) Debug issues across WordPress/plugins and integration points, and coordinate fixes with internal/external technical teams when needed. 5) Hosting, Reliability, Security & Maintenance Manage hosting and website operations: uptime monitoring, backups, staging/live workflows, plugin/theme updates, and rollback readiness. Maintain performance fundamentals: caching/CDN coordination, image optimization, database housekeeping (as needed). Ensure basic security hygiene: SSL, permissions, updates, vulnerability-aware plugin usage, and access management. 6) Ongoing Site Improvements & Support Maintain existing pages and site sections: updates, new sections, content edits, design refreshes, and bug fixes. Keep documentation for key site systems (critical plugins, integration notes, common fixes) to reduce future downtime.Secondary Responsibilities (Marketing Support / Enablement) These are collaborative responsibilities where you support marketing execution by implementing and maintaining required technical elements. Partner with marketing to implement on-page SEO basics (titles/meta, headers, internal linking, image alt text, clean URL structures). Support tracking implementation in collaboration with marketing/digital teams (GA4/GTM tags, pixels, event tracking placements, conversion tracking QA). Help maintain cookie consent banners and consent-friendly tracking configuration (based on company policy/tools). Assist with basic reporting readiness by ensuring tracking is firing correctly and pages are tagged consistently (UTMs, naming conventions, etc.). Note: Strategy ownership for SEO/ads/analytics can remain with Marketing; your role is primarily implementation + technical QA.Required Skills & Experience Strong experience building and maintaining WordPress websites. High proficiency with Elementor (responsive builds, templates, global styling, performance-minded layout). Experience with membership/subscription websites, ideally MemberPress. Solid front-end fundamentals: HTML/CSS, and enough JavaScript to troubleshoot common issues and implement lightweight scripts. Proven ability to manage hosting and site operations (updates, backups, staging, troubleshooting, performance basics). Experience integrating WordPress with third-party tools (LMS, CRM/email tools, APIs/webhooks, SSO/auth flows).Preferred : Familiarity with GA4/GTM implementation and event tracking QA. Practical understanding of technical/on-page SEO implementation. Experience working with SSO flows and membership gating logic. Experience integrating with platforms like Xano (or similar backend/API systems). CRO familiarity (not required, but helpful when building landing pages).What Success Looks Like (First 60–90 Days) Landing pages and key website updates ship quickly, look great, and work flawlessly on mobile/desktop. MemberPress flows (pricing → checkout → access) are stable, clear, and low-friction. Integrations (LMS/Xano/SSO) are documented, monitored, and issues are resolved quickly. Website operations are reliable: updates, backups, uptime, and performance are consistently maintained. Marketing feels supported because SEO/tracking requests are implemented cleanly and validated.
