WordPress & Shopify Developer

• Build WordPress websites from design files using custom themes, Elementor or block themes - whichever the project actually needs.
• Develop and customise WooCommerce and Shopify stores, including payment, shipping and tax configuration for Nepali and international merchants.
• Write custom PHP for WordPress: hooks, filters, custom post types, taxonomies, meta boxes and light plugin work.
• Handle migrations, redirects and launch checklists without breaking existing SEO.
• Optimise site speed: caching, image formats, script loading, database cleanup.
• Keep client sites patched, backed up and secure - you will share responsibility for our maintenance retainers.
• Fix hacked or broken sites brought to us by new clients, and document what went wrong.

• Bachelor's degree or diploma in IT, Computer Science or a related field.
• Equivalent practical experience with a portfolio of live sites is fully acceptable.

• 1 to 3 years building client sites on WordPress; Shopify experience is a strong plus.
• At least five live sites you can point to and explain your exact contribution to.
• Comfortable with PHP, HTML, CSS, JavaScript and cPanel/aaPanel-style hosting.
• Understanding of WordPress security hygiene: file permissions, plugin vetting, admin hardening.

• You know when a page builder is the right call and when it is technical debt.
• Liquid template experience for Shopify is an advantage.
• You are calm under launch-day pressure.

• A clear career track with six-monthly reviews - we promote from within first

Please apply only if you meet the core requirements listed above.

Attach an updated CV in PDF format and, where relevant, links to your portfolio, GitHub, Behance, Dribbble or live projects - applications for design and engineering roles without work samples are difficult to assess.

Shortlisted candidates are contacted within seven working days for a short introductory call, followed by a practical task (paid for senior roles) and a final interview with the team lead. Sambara Technologies never charges a fee at any stage of hiring and will never ask for payment for training, equipment or placement.
