Check wires and connectors on both ends for corrosion, security, and condition. Check them at both positive and negative at the battery. the battery to ground. The engine block ground. The starter positive.

The fact that it is having trouble once it is warm suggests to me that something is getting warm and the extra resistance giving you issues. If all those connections check out then start thinking about the starter.
