Senior Developer
Reaktiv Studios is on the lookout for a senior-level developer to join us in providing and maintaining bespoke WordPress solutions to our valued clients. This is not a junior developer position; candidates need to be able to jump into complex code scenarios and hit the ground running. We’re not all tied-up in years, but typically this is a developer with five or more years of relevant development experience.
Join our team and help bring our clients’ biggest ideas to light.
