About UpdraftPlus
At UpdraftPlus we make plugins for WordPress that help our customers to backup, restore, clone, secure and optimize their WordPress websites.
We have a strong team of creative and innovative developers which is growing fast. Our growth has largely been down to the strength of our products with our plugins being some of the most highly rated plugins on WordPress.
About the role
We are looking for a software developer with a specialism in support to join our team due to our expanding plugin family and customer base. This role is perfect for someone who is not afraid to jump in feet first, has excellent verbal and written communication skills and already has or is willing and able to learn advanced WordPress skills.
The ideal candidate will have both front-end and back-end development skills, as well as customer service and troubleshooting skills. We are looking to fill a long-term role which will hopefully expand from support-specific to additional roles (potentially development or testing in the future).
This role will begin as a freelance position with around 25-30 hours per week, with the intention of transitioning to a full-time position if things go well.
You will be providing support for the UpdraftPlus family of plugins, which includes: UpdraftPlus, All In One WordPress Security, WordPress Optimize, Subscribden, Easy Update Manager and UpdraftCentral.
We are looking for someone to cover UK afternoons / evenings (16:00 - 22:00), Saturdays and some bank holidays, but there is flexibility around this.
Role & Responsibilities
Room for Growth
In the future, the role may be expanded to include documentation, product development or testing , depending on the candidate's desires, experience, and aptitude. We look to recruit the best candidate and then fit the role to suit their skills!
