Agile Collaboration & Servant Leadership - Act as a servant leader by removing technical blockers and facilitating pair programming to socialize testing best practices across the team. - Proactively identify technical debt and platform risks, taking the initiative to refactor code for better testability and performance. Who you are: - 7+ years of professional PHP experience, with deep expertise in the WordPress VIP ecosystem. - Testing Mastery: Proven experience with testing frameworks (e.g., PHPUnit, Playwright, Behat, or Cypress) and a commitment to TDD/BDD workflows. - CI/CD Proficiency: Expert knowledge of modern Continuous Delivery practices and WPVIP-specific deployment constraints. - Full-Stack Skills: Strong command of React (Gutenberg), ES6+, and REST/GraphQL API integration. - Performance & Security Tooling: Extensive experience with tools such as PHPCS, New Relic, Query Monitor, WPScan and K6/WebPageTest. - Engineering Excellence: BDD, ATDD, TDD and CI/CD. - Technical Stewardship: WPVIP architecture and high-scale PHP. - Servant Leadership: Empowering others through mentorship and knowledge sharing. - Proactive Initiative: A self-starter who defines "done" as tested, documented, and deployed. Compensation: Employment offers presented to the selected candidate are based on a combination of qualifications, experience, responsibilities of the role and the candidate's location.
