WordPress Site Designer

WordPress Site Designer

Project 2029 is seeking enthusiastic volunteer professionals who share our commitment to civic engagement and building digital tools that empower everyday citizens. If you love turning messy sites with good bones into clean, fast, and accessible experiences, we’d love to hear from you.

About the Role

As our WordPress Site Designer, you will:

• Update the current theme into a modern, responsive one that aligns with Project 2029’s branding, including following accessibility compliance and mobile‑first design.
• Update the site as needed.
• Assist with edits to the site including blog posts.

Who We Are

Project 2029 is a grassroots organization run entirely by volunteers like you. Our mission is to create a more perfect union, where Freedom, Opportunity, and Security are available to all, where all people are treated equally, where the three branches of government are co-equal, where corruption is exposed, and where laws are established for the good of everyone.

We are developing actionable policies to create a flourishing, transparent, and accountable government that works for all people. We are identifying and empowering new state and federal leaders to step into public service roles with the integrity and vision to implement fair and effective policies. We are rewriting the rules of governance to ignite a movement for democracy anchored in justice and committed to future generations.

Who We’re Looking For

We are looking for volunteers who are excited about progressive politics and are dedicated to the idea that we can change what is happening in our country.

Ideal candidates will be self-starters who can work independently and communicate clearly with technical and non-technical teammates.

Qualifications:

• Experience with web development in Wordpress.
• Comfortable installing and using plugins
• Ability to work remotely and engage with colleagues online

Nice to Have:

• Ability to build a custom database structure and write code to customize Wordpress site for Project 2029’s specific needs highly valued
• Knowledge of how to protect the site against common threats (SQL injections; XSS, brute-force login attempts) also highly valued

.

We value volunteers who bring diverse perspectives and experiences to our work, and we particularly encourage applications from individuals who represent communities that are often underrepresented in advocacy spaces.

Instructions for Applying

Please include the following with your response:

• Highlights of WordPress projects, especially any redesign or security hardening work.
• Portfolio or Live Links – 2–3 URLs of WordPress sites you’ve built or improved
