About AuctionShed
AuctionShed is a new European auction platform built for transparency, fair pricing, and trust. We keep the thrill of auctions alive by making them accessible to everyone without hidden costs or high commissions. Our goal is simple: make buying and selling fun, while keeping it clear, secure, and affordable for everyone.
The Role
We are looking for a talented Web Developer to join us as a freelancer for the launch phase of AuctionShed. You will start part-time, helping to stabilize and refine the platform, and gradually grow with us as we expand. If you believe in building something meaningful from the ground up, this is your chance to be part of a fast-growing marketplace with real impact.
Your Responsibilities
- Maintain and improve our WordPress/WooCommerce-based platform
- Integrate and experiment with AI tools (automation, image recognition, moderation, etc.)
- Strengthen security and platform reliability
- Troubleshoot, test, and refine the vendor/buyer experience
- Collaborate directly with the founder to shape new features and workflows

- Good understanding of WordPress, WooCommerce, and ideally Dokan
- Curiosity or experience with AI integrations (OpenAI, API tools)
- Awareness of web security best practices
- Strong problem-solving mindset and ability to work independently
- Comfortable communicating in English
Nice to Have
- Experience with multilingual or multi-domain setups (Linguise, WPML, etc.)
- Familiarity with Stripe Connect, Boxtal, or other e-commerce APIs
- Eye for detail and responsive design (mobile-first mindset)
Offer and Growth Path
We are starting with a freelance collaboration of about 10 hours per week, focused on the platform launch and first phase of development. This initial 2-month period acts as a paid trial and onboarding stage, where we will evaluate workflow, compatibility, and results.
If we are a great match, the collaboration will extend with higher rates, more hours, and a long-term role. We believe in rewarding dedication and giving every team member a real chance to grow with us.
