  • PHP 8+
  • JavaScript (vanilla JS and React 18+ or Angular 14+)
  • HTML5, CSS3, Sass
  • WordPress custom theme and plugin development

  • Communicate clearly—with your team and with clients.
  • Anticipate and solve problems proactively.
  • Stay adaptable in dynamic, fast-moving projects.
  • Build client trust by delivering on commitments and explaining solutions with confidence.

Why Join fjorge?

• You’ll work on diverse client projects across industries and technologies. 
• You’ll be part of a collaborative, growth-oriented culture.
