WordPress / App Developer

About The Role We are a leading medical communications agency building digital infrastructure — websites and mobile applications — for pharmaceutical and healthcare education brands. We’re looking for a WordPress App Developer who can own the full stack: a headless WordPress backend feeding a React Native/Expo mobile app, plus the Linux server environment that keeps it all running reliably. This is a high-ownership role for someone who’s equally comfortable in WordPress’s PHP/plugin ecosystem, a modern JS-based mobile app, and the Linux server stack underneath both. What You’ll Do

• Architect and build headless WordPress setups — exposing content via REST API/WPGraphQL for consumption by a mobile front end
• Develop and maintain the companion mobile application using React Native (Expo), including builds and releases via EAS Build
• Integrate Firebase Analytics (and other Firebase services as needed) into the mobile app
• Manage WordPress development including custom plugins, theme customization, and form/membership solutions (e.g., Ultimate Member)
• Own Linux server administration and hosting — provisioning, configuration, security hardening, and ongoing maintenance (current stack hosted on Hostinger)
• Handle DNS and email infrastructure — MX records, SPF, DKIM, and troubleshooting deliverability issues (e.g., migrating from host-default mail records to Google Workspace)
• Monitor server health, uptime, backups, and performance; troubleshoot issues proactively
• Implement security best practices across WordPress sites and server environments (SSL, firewalls, malware prevention, access control)
• Collaborate with design and content teams to implement features, forms, and custom functionality across multiple brand websites
• Maintain documentation for server configurations, deployment processes, and app build pipelines What We’re Looking For
• 3-5 years of experience in WordPress development, with demonstrable experience building or maintaining a headless WordPress architecture
• Hands-on experience with React Native and Expo, including EAS Build for app deployment
• Working knowledge of Firebase (Analytics at minimum; Firestore/Auth a plus)
• Strong command of Linux server administration — comfortable in the command line, managing services, and basic hardening
• Practical experience with DNS management (MX, SPF, DKIM, CNAME records) and email deliverability troubleshooting
• Proficiency in PHP, MySQL, and the WordPress plugin/theme ecosystem
• Familiarity with hosting platforms (Hostinger or similar) and Google Workspace administration
• Understanding of REST APIs/WPGraphQL for headless content delivery
• Strong debugging skills across the stack — from PHP backend to mobile app to server config Good to Have
• Experience publishing apps to the App Store and Google Play
• Familiarity with CI/CD pipelines for mobile or web deployment
• Experience with security compliance relevant to healthcare/pharma digital platforms
• Prior experience working with medical, pharma, or healthcare-sector clients
• Knowledge of caching, CDN setup, and site performance optimization Why Join Us
• Full ownership of a modern headless WordPress + mobile app architecture from the ground up
• Work spans the entire stack — server to backend to mobile app — ideal for a developer who wants breadth, not just one layer
• Build digital products that directly support medical education and healthcare communication
• Collaborative environment working closely with design, content, and infrastructure stakeholders Apply for this position Full Name * Email * Phone * Bio * Upload CV/Resume *Allowed Type(s): .pdf, .doc, .docx By using this form you agree with the storage and handling of your data by this website. *
