WE’RE HIRING — IRISH-BASED WEBSITE DEVELOPER
Designwest is looking for an experienced Irish-based website developer to join us on a freelance / contractor basis across a range of ongoing web projects.
This is primarily a development-focused role rather than a design role, although a good eye for layout, UX, and front-end presentation would be a major advantage.
Most of our current websites are built in WordPress, but cross-platform knowledge and wider stack experience would be ideal.
We’re looking for someone with experience in:
• WordPress development
• Custom themes & templates
• Elementor / Bricks / Gutenberg
• HTML, CSS, JavaScript
• PHP & MySQL
• Responsive front-end development
• Performance optimisation
• SEO-friendly development practices
• Hosting, migrations, DNS and deployment workflows
• Cross-platform or framework experience is a bonus
• AI-integrated tools and automation experience also welcome
The ideal person:
• Is highly reliable and organised
• Can problem-solve independently
• Communicates clearly and quickly
• Has agency or client-facing experience
• Understands modern UX and clean implementation
• Can occasionally assist with urgent fixes or launches outside standard hours
Important:
This role will occasionally require weekend and out-of-hours availability for launches, fixes, updates, or deadline-driven work, so flexibility is important.
This is not a junior role.
To apply, send:
• A short introduction
• Portfolio / recent websites
• Technologies and platforms you work with
• Your availability and location in Ireland
