About OneUpNetworks

OneUpNetworks is a US-focused managed IT, cloud, cybersecurity and technology services company.

We are currently refreshing and modernizing our website with a strong focus on performance, SEO, AEO (Answer Engine Optimization), user experience and lead generation.

We are looking for a hands-on Next.js/Vercel developer who can help us execute this website refresh and continue improving the site over time.

What You'll Do

You will work on an existing website and help us:

• Refresh and modernize the website UI/UX
• Develop and maintain the website using Next.js / React
• Deploy and manage the website through Vercel
• Improve website speed and Core Web Vitals
• Build responsive pages for desktop, tablet and mobile
• Create reusable components and page templates
• Implement SEO-friendly technical architecture
• Implement structured data / schema markup
• Build pages optimized for Google search and AI/answer engines
• Implement AEO-friendly content structures
• Improve internal linking and site architecture
• Implement metadata, canonical URLs, Open Graph and other technical SEO requirements
• Create landing pages for specific services and industries
• Integrate forms, analytics and lead-generation workflows
• Work with APIs and third-party services where required
• Maintain and improve the website after the initial refresh

Ideal Technical SkillsRequired

• Strong experience with Next.js
• Strong React/JavaScript/TypeScript skills
• Hands-on experience with Vercel
• Good understanding of responsive web development
• Experience building production websites
• Understanding of technical SEO
• Understanding of website performance and Core Web Vitals
• Git/GitHub workflow
• Ability to work independently

Strongly Preferred

• Experience with Next.js App Router
• Tailwind CSS
• TypeScript
• Structured data / Schema.org
• SEO-friendly Next.js architecture
• Google Search Console
• Google Analytics
• AEO / LLM-friendly content architecture
• Experience integrating APIs
• Experience with CMS/headless CMS platforms
• Experience with B2B technology or SaaS websites
• Experience working with US-focused websites

What We Are Looking For

We are not looking for someone who only converts designs into HTML.

The ideal candidate understands that a B2B website needs to:

Look good → load fast → rank → appear in AI answers → generate leads.

You should be comfortable making technical recommendations rather than simply implementing instructions.

For example, if a proposed implementation will negatively affect SEO, performance or maintainability, we expect you to point that out and suggest a better approach.

Initial Project

The first assignment will be a website refresh for OneUpNetworks.

The work will include:

1. Review the existing website and codebase
2. Recommend technical and UX improvements
3. Refresh the website design and page structure
4. Improve mobile responsiveness
5. Improve performance/Core Web Vitals
6. Improve technical SEO
7. Implement structured data
8. Improve internal linking and site architecture
9. Create SEO/AEO-friendly service pages
10. Implement lead-generation forms and tracking
11. Deploy and manage the site through Vercel
12. Test the website across major browsers and devices
13. Establish a clean development process for future updates

Working Arrangement

This is a part-time opportunity rather than a full-time position.

The initial project will involve a concentrated website refresh, followed by ongoing part-time development and optimization work.

The exact number of hours can be flexible depending on the candidate's availability and experience.

We are open to candidates who:

• Already have another job/project
• Work as freelancers
• Are independent developers
• Want a long-term part-time engagement

What Would Make You Stand Out

You will stand out if you can show:

• 2–3 high-quality websites you personally built
• Production Next.js/Vercel projects
• Before/after examples of website performance improvements
• Examples of SEO-focused development
• Experience building B2B websites
• Understanding of AEO / AI search
• Ability to explain technical decisions clearly
