Application ends: 2026-09-27

Quick Summary

This is a 3-month remote project for a WordPress Layout Builder/Site Designer to build pages across multiple WordPress sites as part of a Drupal-to-WordPress migration. The role focuses on using a block-based content editor and custom block libraries to assemble prepared content into clean, consistent, on-brand layouts, ensuring responsive behavior and maintaining styling across high volumes of pages. Essential requirements include hands-on experience with WordPress block editors (e.g., Gutenberg, Elementor) and custom blocks, a strong eye for layout, the ability to manage content at volume accurately, comfort with established design systems, self-direction, and excellent English communication with substantial daily overlap in the Pacific time zone. This is a production and layout role, not original visual design or backend development.

NAMM is migrating multiple web properties from Drupal to WordPress. Our development partner, Web Dev Studios, has launched a WordPress multisite infrastructure. Our internal staff have already organized the content - copy and images - for each site. We need someone to sit between those two groups and build the pages:

Taking prepared content and assembling clean, consistent, on-brand layouts using the custom blocks provided. This is a production and layout role rather than a from-scratch visual design role; the design system and block library will already exist.

Key Responsibilities

  • Build out pages across multiple WordPress sites using a block-based content editor
  • Translate organized content from non-technical staff into polished pages that follow NAMM’s brand guidelines
  • Maintain layout and styling consistency across a high volume of pages and across both sites
  • Verify pages render correctly across desktop, tablet, and mobile breakpoints
  • Identify gaps where existing blocks do not cover a layout need and flag to NAMM team
  • Work directly with NAMM stakeholders to review pages, gather feedback, and make revisions
  • Track and update progress in a project ticket management tool

Requirements

  • Hands-on experience building production pages in the WordPress block editor (Gutenberg, Layout Builder, Elementor, etc), including work with custom or pre- built block libraries
  • Strong eye for layout - spacing, typography, visual hierarchy, and responsive behavior
  • Demonstrated ability to work with content and media at volume without losing accuracy or consistency
  • Comfort working within an established design system rather than creating one
  • Self-directed; able to take organized content and move it to a finished page without daily direction
  • Great communication skills in English; will be on regular calls with non-technical staff and must be able to explain things plainly
  • Comfortable working in the Pacific time zone with substantial daily overlap for review sessions

Nice to Have

  • Experience on a Drupal-to-WordPress migration
  • Familiarity with Advanced Custom Fields (ACF) and flexible content layouts
  • Experience working alongside an external development agency
  • Familiarity with WordPress multisite
  • Working knowledge of accessibility standards (WCAG) as applied to page structure
  • Basic image optimization and media library management practices
  • Experience with Figma or similar for referencing design specs

Out of Scope for This Role

  • Backend or PHP development - owned by Web Dev Studios
  • Original brand or visual identity design
  • Content writing

Benefits

  • Work remotely
  • Vacation: 10 business days a year
  • Holidays: 5 National Holidays a year
  • Company Holidays: 5 Company Holidays a year (Christmas Eve, Christmas Day, New Year's Eve, New Year's Day, Zipdev Day)
  • Parental Leave
  • Health Care Reimbursement
  • Active Lifestyle Reimbursement
