At Crowd Favorite, we’re protective of our culture, our process, and our clients, and we’d rather be understaffed than hire the wrong person. When you do join our team, though, you’ll quickly realize this isn’t like other jobs. It’s a transformative experience.
We’re currently seeking an experienced developer to work on a variety of WordPress sites and projects in our ongoing client support department. Our ideal candidate is someone who finds satisfaction in solving challenges in a support environment.

You’ll find a true balance. Crowd Favorite isn’t a boiler room. We’d generally rather you work smart and take time to recharge.
You’ll be part of a real team. We’re a tight-knit group that respects and supports each other. You’ll know your team has your back.
