Leadhub
Web Developer
About the job
Full-time · San Antonio, TX
Leadhub is a full-service marketing agency focused on growing home service and trades businesses. We have our own custom WordPress theme, built in-house. You'll learn it inside out. Most of your work is standing up client sites on that foundation and shaping it to each trade's business, not starting from a blank file. Some of it is improving the theme itself, so the next build goes faster and cleaner.
Our clients are trade businesses: HVAC, plumbing, roofing, electrical. A slow page or a broken form costs them real jobs, so the details you get right make a major impact on our clients’ ability to grow their business. You'll also carry a working knowledge of technical SEO and how AI search reads a page, because at Leadhub we believe a site that ranks and a site that's built well are the same.
The Work
• Build client sites on Leadhub's theme, from the designer's file to a live page
• Extend and improve the core theme so every site after it benefits
• Wire content with ACF so a non-developer can edit a page without breaking the layout
• Reach for Elementor when a page builder fits, hand-code when it doesn't
• Build pages that load fast. Compressed images sized to fit, a short plugin list, and no scripts the page never uses.
• Add schema and structured data so pages earn rich results and surface in AI Overviews
• Build technical SEO into every site. Semantic HTML, canonical tags, clean URLs, a crawlable structure with no orphan pages.
• Manage our automations and integrations for the Leadhub team and clients. Zapier workflows, scripts against client and vendor APIs, small internal tools when nothing off the shelf fits.
• Keep forms, tracking, and integrations firing correctly, then confirm they still do
• Fix and improve existing client sites without breaking what already works
• Own the path from staging to production so nothing ships untested, managing WP Engine environments, Cloudflare, DNS, and site migrations along the way
What Good Looks Like
• Pages pass Core Web Vitals. Actually green, not close enough.
• The next developer opens your code and knows what's happening in a minute
• The site launches on the date you committed to, tested, no scramble at go-live
• Structured data validates and the client shows up where they should
• A change to the shared theme doesn't break the sites already running on it
• Multiple client sites in flight, all moving forward on schedule
• Forms, tracking, and integrations fire correctly and stay that way
What You Bring
• Three or more years building and delivering WordPress sites, not just editing them
• PHP you can write and debug yourself, comfort in the template hierarchy, and ACF as second nature
• You can pick up a codebase someone else built and work within it instead of rewriting it
• Real work in Elementor or Bricks, and the judgment to know when to skip them
• A feel for technical SEO. Schema, site speed, semantic markup, crawlability.
• Enough grasp of AI search to build pages that structured data can feed
• Automation experience. Zapier or Make, plus scripting against an API in PHP, JavaScript, or Python.
• Git, a staging habit, and testing before you push
• Real care for the details, because on a trades site a broken form is a lost customer
• You finish what you start, and you'd rather do it once, right
• Comfortable using an LLM like Claude to write code faster when it earns its place, and sharp enough to catch what it gets wrong
• A portfolio or GitHub we can look at matters more than a degree
Bonus Points
• GA4 and Google Tag Manager setup
• Experience with accessibility and remain up to date with web standards
• You've handed sites to an SEO or content team and kept them happy
• Experience on a support team and communicating with clients on closed tasks or opportunities for improvement
• UI/UX experience with a strong focus on conversion rate optimization
What We Offer
• Competitive salary commensurate with experience
• Health benefits and 401K
• In-office in San Antonio, working alongside the rest of the team
How We Work
We give you a clear brief and a real deadline, then leave you to build. You'll have several client sites in flight, so you'll move between them, but the work is heads-down and hands-on. If you take pride in a clean build and want the room to get it right, you'll like it here. If you'd rather leave things half-finished and move on, you won't.
