- You are knowledgeable of PHP in WordPress as a platform, including custom post types, taxonomies, and use of WordPress beyond typical “blog” use cases.
- You have a code portfolio of real-world samples. Link us to your best work on GitHub and you’ll never have to do any live coding or whiteboard testing!
