Über

*Company overview*
Photonic Universe is a growing UK supplier of solar, battery, electrical and off-grid power products. We sell a wide catalogue of technical products to both retail and trade customers, with an increasingly strong B2B customer base.
We are undertaking an important redevelopment of our main e-commerce website, photonicuniverse.com. Our existing website is based on Zend Framework, PHP and MySQL. It has a substantial product catalogue, customer accounts, ordering functionality and card payments, but requires a complete modernisation in both design and functionality.
We are looking for an experienced, commercially minded developer to lead the practical delivery of a new WordPress and WooCommerce website. This is a hands-on role for someone who combines strong PHP and WooCommerce development skills with excellent UX/UI judgement and a genuine understanding of how an e-commerce business works.
The initial role is a three-month fixed-term, full-time project based at our Bromley office. There may be an opportunity to extend the position into an ongoing or permanent role for the right person.
*The project*
You will help us design, build and launch a modern, fast and mobile-first WooCommerce website which will serve both retail and B2B customers, with a particularly strong B2B focus.
The work will include:
* Reviewing the existing Zend Framework / PHP / MySQL website, product database and customer journeys.
* Migrating products with their data, images, descriptions, categories and other relevant information into WordPress and WooCommerce.
* Creating and implementing the new website structure, customer journeys and product-data requirements.
* Creating or adapting a high-quality modern design, using a suitable premium theme or a bespoke solution where appropriate.
* Building a responsive website that works properly across desktop, tablet and smartphone devices.
* Developing a robust B2B customer portal, including account-specific functionality, trade pricing and other agreed B2B features.
* Implementing advanced product search and filtering based on meaningful technical parameters.
* Developing bespoke WooCommerce functionality where standard plugins are unsuitable, including potentially complex delivery and postage calculations.
* Integrating payment systems, including reviewing the most suitable route for continuing card payments currently processed through the existing acquirer.
* Improving product specifications and helping establish a clear, scalable product-data structure.
* Ensuring strong performance, security, backups, testing, GDPR-aware practices and a reliable launch process.
* Working closely with our management, sales and product teams to translate commercial requirements into practical website functionality.
* Documenting the build so that the website can be maintained and developed further after launch.
*About you*
You will be an experienced developer who can take ownership of a substantial e-commerce project.
You must have:
* Strong PHP and MySQL experience.
* Extensive hands-on WordPress and WooCommerce development experience.
* Experience developing custom WooCommerce functionality, plugins, themes, hooks, APIs and integrations.
* Strong HTML, CSS and JavaScript skills.
* Proven experience migrating e-commerce product data from legacy databases or platforms.
* Experience building responsive, mobile-first websites.
* A strong understanding of e-commerce UX, conversion, checkout journeys and product discovery.
* Experience with advanced product filtering, faceted search and structured product attributes.
* Experience integrating payment gateways, shipping logic, third-party APIs or business systems.
* A portfolio demonstrating websites that you have personally developed, particularly WooCommerce or other technically complex e-commerce projects.
* Good visual judgement and the ability to create, select or adapt a modern, commercially effective website design.
* Strong problem-solving ability, attention to detail and the confidence to challenge unclear requirements constructively.
* The ability to communicate clearly with non-technical colleagues and understand the commercial impact of development decisions.
It would be an advantage to have:
* Experience building B2B portals, trade pricing, customer-specific pricing, quotation workflows, credit accounts or customer approval processes.
* Experience with Elavon or other card-payment gateway integrations.
* Experience with ERP, WMS, stock-control, CRM, marketplace or partner-website integrations.
* Knowledge of technical SEO, Core Web Vitals, accessibility and website performance optimisation.
* Experience with Git, staging environments, deployment processes and automated testing.
* Experience applying AI tools or AI-enabled functionality to e-commerce, customer support, product data or internal processes.
* Experience working in a small or medium-sized commercial business where development decisions need to be practical and cost-conscious.
* An interest in solar, batteries, electrical products or technical product catalogues.
*What we offer*
* An opportunity to lead a highly visible, commercially important e-commerce redevelopment project.
* Direct involvement in business decisions rather than working through layers of account management.
* A varied role combining development, UX/UI, e-commerce strategy and systems thinking.
* The possibility of an extended contract or permanent role after the initial project, including work on a warehouse management system, integrations with partner websites, automation and AI-related projects.
* Office-based collaboration with a practical and commercially focused team in Bromley.
*Application process*
Please apply with:
* Your CV.
* A short covering note explaining why you are suitable for this role.
* Links to at least three e-commerce websites or comparable projects that you personally developed or substantially contributed to.
* A brief explanation of your role on each project, including the technical work you completed.
* Your availability and preferred employment or contract arrangement.
* Your salary expectations or day rate.
Applications without a relevant portfolio may not be considered.
Pay: Up to £75,000.00 per year
Application question(s):
* Do you have at least five years of professional PHP development experience?
* Do you have substantial commercial WooCommerce development experience beyond configuring themes and standard plugins?
* Have you migrated products, images and structured product data from a legacy database or e-commerce system into WooCommerce?
* Please provide links to three e-commerce websites you personally built or substantially developed, and describe your contribution to each.
* Have you developed custom WooCommerce functionality involving pricing, shipping, checkout, product configuration, APIs or business-system integration? Please give examples.
* Have you built a B2B customer portal, trade-pricing system, quotation function, customer approval workflow or account-specific pricing system?
* Are you able to work primarily from our Bromley office for the initial three-month project?
* What are your salary expectations or contractor day rate?
* What is your earliest available start date?
