Job description

501, Fifth Avenue, Suite 805 New York, NY 10017

This role is for an experienced Drupal Developer (5+ years) who can work on both backend and frontend aspects of Drupal websites, including custom development, API integrations, and site maintenance.

Must‑Have Skills

Strong Drupal Knowledge (Admin + Coding)

• Must understand how Drupal works from inside — not just using the CMS, but also writing custom modules, themes, and modifying core behavior where needed.

Strong PHP Experience

• Drupal is built on PHP, so the developer should be very comfortable writing, debugging, and optimizing PHP code.
• Should know how to use Git for version control: branching, merging, pull requests, conflict resolution, etc.

MySQL

• Drupal uses MySQL as its database, so understanding queries, schema, views, and indexing is essential.

Headless Drupal Experience (Good to Have)

• Experience using Drupal as a backend only (API provider) with frontend frameworks like React/Angular/Vue fetching data from Drupal.

Responsibilities

Configure Drupal Modules
