What We’re Looking For

As a Website Producer, you possess a passion for collaboration, the creative process and using technology to produce world-class websites. You’re familiar with how websites are built and have an eye for great-looking web page layouts. You’re comfortable working and communicating with cross-functional teams including strategy, design and development. To succeed, you should be both a creative and technical advocate who can problem-solve in the most efficient way possible.

What You’ll Be Doing

• Producing WordPress websites, including individual pages, constructing menu/navigation systems, and integrating plugins. Ideally, you are a WordPress guru who knows all of the ins-and-outs of producing WordPress sites.
• Managing internal, partner and client-side development teams including outlining their tasks, priorities, keeping them on time, and reviewing their progress.
• Working as a conduit between our design/UX and development teams to create development guides, including functional requirements.
• Managing the client feedback process and interpreting client requests in order to route them accordingly.
• Adding SEO schema and meta data to the website infrastructure.
• Setting up and managing necessary touch points between teams such as stand-ups, status, and hours review.  Participate in weekly allocation and roadmap meetings.

• Experience in directing and participating in the full life cycle of a website build, including outlining functional specifications, scheduling and leading cross-functional teams, QA, bug resolution, and deployment.
