About The Role

We run a marketing agency serving 20+ active clients on a WordPress and Kadence-based platform. It works — and it’s actively serving customers — but we’ve outgrown it. We’re moving toward a Laravel + Filament central hub that gives us multi-tenant control, reliable data ingestion, and AI-assisted content workflows.

This is not a greenfield project, and it’s not a quick one. It’s a deliberate, multi-phase migration that will unfold over months — with real clients on the line the entire time. You will be responsible for keeping production stable while progressively building the system that replaces it.

Where We Are Today

Current Stack: WordPress Multisite, Kadence Theme/Blocks, CSV-based content ingestion, 20+ active client accounts.

Target State: Laravel + Filament central hub, multi-tenant architecture, queue-based ingestion pipelines, AI-assisted content workflows.

How We're Getting There

This role owns the migration path. We expect a phased approach that keeps clients live at every step:

• Phase 1 - Audit & Design: Assess current WP/Kadence architecture, content structures, and CSV workflows. Design multi-tenant data model and migration strategy.
• Phase 2 - Parallel Build: Develop Laravel/Filament hub alongside existing WP system. No client disruption — new platform builds in parallel.
• Phase 3 - Pilot Migration: Migrate 1–2 internal or low-risk clients. Validate ingestion pipelines, environment tooling, and content parity.
• Phase 4 - AI Layer: Introduce AI-assisted content workflows with structured prompts, brand voice configs, and human-in-the-loop approval.
• Phase 5 - Progressive Rollout: Migrate remaining clients in cohorts. Maintain WP fallback until each client is fully validated on the new platform.

What You'll Own

• The migration strategy — ensuring a seamless transition from WordPress/Kadence to Laravel/Filament.
• Laravel + Filament hub development, client environment management, and content ops.
• Multi-tenant architecture design and implementation.
• CSV/data ingestion pipelines: queue-based, fault-tolerant, and auditable.
• Lead AI-assisted content workflows: integration, design, and approval flows.
• Oversee WordPress stewardship to keep 20+ client sites stable during the transition.
• Define the technical roadmap and manage daily technical leadership of the existing team.

What We're Looking For

Platform & Migration Experience:

• Proven experience migrating live production systems, deep knowledge of WordPress, and familiarity with Kadence.
• 5+ years of Laravel experience and ability to design multi-tenant systems.

Reliability Engineering:

• Experience with background job pipelines and ensuring data integrity.

AI & Automation:

• Experience with production LLM API integration and designing human-in-the-loop workflows.

Leadership & Process:

• Ability to lead by example, implement necessary processes, and communicate clearly with stakeholders.

Why This Role

• Own the architecture influencing how 20+ clients are served.
• Engage in meaningful AI integration work.
• Join a small, focused team where your contributions genuinely matter.
