A client site going down, a bad deployment, or an unverified backup are the kinds of problems that shouldn’t happen quietly — someone needs to own uptime, deployments, and data protection as a full-time responsibility, not an afterthought. This role exists to be that owner: managing the ongoing health, deployment lifecycle, and uptime of client websites, with robust hands-on expertise across WordPress and e-commerce platforms.
n
nYou’ll work closely with Developers, Project Managers, and Technical Leads to prevent downtime, catch issues before clients notice them, and make sure every release goes live cleanly.
n
nThis role is for someone who enjoys:
n
n
- Owning production environments independently, with confidence and discipline
n
- Catching problems before they become client-facing incidents
n
- Treating backups, deployments, and documentation as non-negotiable habits, not chores
n
- Troubleshooting under pressure without losing composure
n
n
nIf you’re someone who takes real pride in a clean deployment and a site that never goes down on your watch, this role will give you full ownership of that outcome.Every client account needs someone who can own the SEO work directly — audits, strategy, content planning, and reporting — without needing to be walked through the fundamentals.
The SEO Strategist is that person: an experienced individual contributor who manages their own portfolio of client accounts end-to-end, working closely with the SEO Strategy Lead on strategy and complex technical issues, while taking full responsibility for day-to-day execution and results.

nWhat you’ll really be doing

n
- Take and verify scheduled and pre-deployment backups of client websites and databases

n
n
- Proactively monitor client servers — uptime, disk space, resource usage, and security patches
n
- Manage hosting environments (cPanel, Plesk, AWS, or similar), including access control and configuration
n
- Set up and maintain monitoring/alerting tools for server and website uptime
n
n
n4. WordPress & eCommerce Platform Support
n

- Maintain WordPress websites: plugin/theme updates, performance optimization, security hardening, malware cleanup
n
- Support e-commerce platforms (WooCommerce, Shopify, Magento) — product/catalog issues, payment gateway and plugin conflicts, performance tuning
n
n
n5. Documentation & Incident Tracking
n
n
- Maintain server details, access credentials (via a secure password manager), and deployment steps for each client site
n
- Maintain an incident log for outages/issues and track resolution time
n
n
nWho will thrive in this role
n
n
- You treat backups and documentation as core to the job, not paperwork to skip
n
- You catch and fix issues before clients notice them, not after they complain
n
