Senior WordPress & Moodle Developer

Synaxiom is on the lookout for a talented WordPress & Moodle Developer who thrives on solving problems, building clean solutions, and keeping complex platforms running smoothly. This isn’t just about installing plugins — it’s about owning the full cycle: setting up sites, customizing plugins, managing multilingual environments with WPML, and ensuring Moodle and WordPress work seamlessly together.

If you’re someone who can dive into code when needed, but also has the eye to keep a multilingual learning platform polished and running, we want to talk to you.

 

What you’ll do

  • Configure, maintain, and optimize WordPress websites.
  • Develop and customize WordPress plugins and themes.
  • Manage multilingual sites with WPML or similar tools.
  • Configure and customize Moodle LMS, including plugins, themes, and upgrades.
  • Integrate Moodle and WordPress (SSO, course sync, payments).
  • Keep servers healthy (SSL, caching, cron jobs, backups).
  • Troubleshoot issues and make sure everything “just works.”

What you bring

  • Strong PHP & MySQL background.
  • Proven WordPress plugin/theme development experience.
  • Hands-on Moodle LMS experience.
  • Experience managing multilingual websites (WPML).
  • Knowledge of HTML, CSS, JavaScript/jQuery.
  • Familiarity with LAMP/LEMP environments.
  • Comfortable using Git and working across multiple projects.

Soft skills that matter

  • You take ownership and deliver — not just tick boxes.
  • You spot issues before they become problems.
  • You can explain tech clearly to non-tech teammates.
  • You adapt quickly, whether it’s a new plugin, client request, or system update.
  • You bring a positive, proactive attitude to a global, remote team.

Nice-to-have extras

  • WooCommerce or other WordPress eCommerce experience.
  • Familiarity with SCORM/xAPI standards in Moodle.
  • Knowledge of cloud hosting (AWS, Azure, DigitalOcean).
  • Exposure to DevOps practices.

Why join Synaxiom?

  • Remote-first, flexible work environment.
  • Build platforms that impact international audiences.
  • Competitive pay with room to grow.
  • A culture that values innovation, quality, and collaboration.

We are looking for team members who are not only technically proficient but also excel in estimating effort, meeting deadlines, and communicating effectively within a collaborative environment. Your ability to assess tasks realistically, manage your time efficiently, and engage in open communication is essential to our team’s success.
