• Clear Communicator: Ability to explain technical milestones, decisions, and challenges in plain English without relying on IT jargon.

Scope of Work

• Platform Rebuild: Rebuild all existing pages in a clean Elementor-based architecture. Strong design eye and experience with Elementor Pro are essential.
• WooCommerce & E-Commerce Development: Build and implement product page templates for 200+ SKUs, establish catalog structure, configure pricing rules, and manage account gating for professional/wholesale portals.
• Dual-Channel (B2B/B2C) Functionality: Implement robust B2B/B2C logic throughout the site, including professional portals and tiered wholesale pricing.
• Backend & Server Management: Handle Plesk hosting environment tasks including SSL management, database optimization, and troubleshooting.
• Custom Development: Utilize CSS, HTML, and PHP to customize WooCommerce functionality beyond standard plugin capabilities.

• Third-Party Tools & Integrations: Preserve, test, and confirm functionality of active tools and integrations.

Timeline, Milestones & Acceptance Criteria

A formal project timeline, phased milestones, and acceptance criteria will be defined collaboratively with the selected candidate prior to the start of work.
