Title: Senior WordPress + API Developer (US-Based, Ongoing Work, Direct Collaboration)

We are looking for a highly skilled, US-based WordPress developer with strong API integration experience for ongoing work.

This is NOT a basic WordPress role. We need someone who can:

Build and maintain custom plugins (not just themes)

Integrate third-party APIs (OAuth, REST, webhooks)

Handle secure storage of API credentials and tokens

Troubleshoot plugin conflicts and performance issues

Work directly with us (no agencies, no project managers)

Requirements:

US-based and available during business hours

Strong experience with custom WordPress development

Proven API integration work (please provide examples)

Solid understanding of security best practices

Fast response times and clear communication

Nice to have:

Experience with social media APIs

Familiarity with hosting environments (WP Engine preferred)

Performance optimization experience

To apply:

Share 2–3 relevant API integration projects (what you built + your role)

Answer this: How do you securely store and manage API credentials in WordPress?

Confirm your typical response time during business hours

We will start with a small paid test project and move into ongoing work if it’s a good fit.
