Front-End Developer/Designer
Talimer, Milwaukee, WI, United States
Talimer's client, a full-service digital agency based in Milwaukee, seeks a
Front-End Developer/Designer
to build and maintain high-quality websites and digital experiences for a diverse client portfolio, with a strong focus on WordPress and working knowledge of Shopify.
This is a hands‑on development role for someone who moves comfortably between design and code. You'll translate static comps and wireframes into clean, responsive, production‑ready builds, working closely with designers, UX professionals, and other developers across a range of projects, from custom WordPress builds to commercial theme implementations.
The team takes craftsmanship seriously and has a culture of continuous improvement, which means you'll have room to contribute to front‑end standards and process, not just execute against them.
This is a strong fit for a developer who takes pride in faithful, polished execution, sweats the details on responsiveness and accessibility, and is equally comfortable owning a project independently or collaborating closely with a team.
