Hiring · 13 open jobsGeneral information
WP Engine hosts and manages WordPress websites for businesses, handling the technical work of running WordPress at scale. Its Atlas product is a headless WordPress solution, built for developers who want a separate front end. The company is based in Austin, United States.
Jason Cohen and Ben Metcalfe founded WP Engine in 2010. Silver Lake, an investment firm, bought a majority stake in 2018. By 2018, WP Engine had 75,000 customers. It expanded to Europe in 2016, opening offices in Limerick, Ireland. That backing gives WP Engine money to grow, but also pressure to deliver returns to its investor. WP Engine is an H-1B sponsor.1

Notes & sources
- 1. Company description. Written by InterviewOS from WP Engine's public materials and press coverage; facts are checked against the sources below.
- 2. Weekly counts. A count is the number of listings the pipeline saw for the first time in that week. Weeks begin Monday; the onboarding week is excluded from the scale and every average.
- 3. Live counts. Deduplicated live listings observed daily on WP Engine's own hiring system; last check October 28, 2026. Stale and syndicated posts on aggregator sites are not counted.
- 4. Posted pay. Ranges extracted from the text of WP Engine's own listings; a range appears only when the employer printed one. Extraction is still rolling out, so this table can lag the board.
- 5. Federal visa records. USCIS H1B Employer Data Hub and US Department of Labor LCA disclosure files, matched to this company by name.
