Our careers blog runs on WordPress and pulls in more organic traffic than the product does, which is either embarrassing or an opportunity depending on who you ask. You will treat it as an opportunity.
Two months, one site
You will build and maintain landing pages and blog templates: a custom post type for company profiles, a comparison table block that editors can fill in without touching code, and a cleanup of theme CSS that has collected four years of quick fixes. You will also make the site noticeably faster by auditing plugins and lazy loading everything below the fold.
The terms, stated plainly
This internship is unpaid and remote, runs for two months, and asks for roughly twenty hours a week. It suits a student who wants a real content site to practise on and a solid reference at the end. We would rather you know that clearly before you apply than discover it later.
What you get out of it
CMS work is unglamorous and extremely employable. Agencies and small product teams hire for it constantly. You will finish able to take a design, build a theme template, keep it accessible, and hand it to a non technical editor who will not break it.
Responsibilities
- Build and maintain landing page and blog templates on our WordPress theme
- Create a company profile custom post type that editors can fill in without code
- Develop an editable comparison table block for the content team
- Untangle four years of accumulated quick fixes in the theme stylesheet
- Audit installed plugins and remove the ones costing more than they contribute
- Lazy load media below the fold and compress the existing image library
Requirements
- Student or recent graduate; no agency or professional experience needed
- Working HTML and CSS, plus PHP basics or a willingness to pick them up quickly
- Have installed and configured WordPress at least once, even locally
- Roughly twenty hours a week for two months, working fully remotely
