Fractional Senior WordPress Engineer — senior-level expertise and an escalation path for teams that need it without the overhead of a full-time hire: project architecture, technical escalation, developer training, and security incident management. Work comes through Bethink Studio, Big Orange Lab, Codeable, and direct clients.
