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

1. 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.

2. 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.

4. MySQL

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

5. 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

Key Responsibilities

1. Build & maintain Drupal websites

• Develop new sections/modules, modify existing ones, and ensure the website is stable and secure.

2. Custom module & theme development

• Ability to create tailor-made functionality which is not available in contributed modules.
• Build custom themes based on design requirements.
• Create APIs within Drupal to expose data (useful for integrations or headless architecture).

4. Configure Drupal modules

• Install, configure, extend both core modules and contributed modules like Views, Pathauto, Webform, etc.
• Create and manage:
• Content types
• Fields
• Views
• This defines how content is stored, displayed, and related on the site.

6. Apply security updates & patches

• Regularly update Drupal core and modules to fix vulnerabilities and bugs.

7. SSO integrations

• Implement Single Sign-On (SSO) using:
• OAuth
• OpenID Connect
• SAML
• Required for enterprise-level authentication.

8. Third-party API integrations

• Connect Drupal with other systems using:
• REST
• SOAP
• GraphQL

9. Code reviews + unit testing

• Ensure quality coding standards, test coverage, and bug resolution.

10. Deployment management

11. Documentation

12. Post-launch support

• Fix issues, optimize performance, and enhance features after the site goes live.
