Senior Full Stack Software Engineer, Drupal

This project uses a modern tech stack: a headless Drupal backend, a Next.js frontend, Tailwind CSS for styling, and GraphQL to connect Drupal and Next.js. The entire system is hosted in an Azure cloud environment. While you'll be working across the full stack, your sweet spot will be on the frontend, bringing designs to life and ensuring a high-quality user experience. You'll also have the opportunity to work with Drupal as a headless CMS, so some experience in that area is a plus.

Our Culture

• Integrate the Next.js frontend with the headless Drupal backend using GraphQL APIs
• Work with the backend Drupal CMS, including content modeling and API integrations
• Collaborate with our Human-Centered Design team to translate wireframes and mockups into high-quality, reusable code
• Write clean, maintainable, and well-tested code
• Optimize user-facing tools and search functions for maximum speed and scalability
• Participate in agile ceremonies, including sprint planning, daily stand-ups, and retrospectives
• Effectively communicate and collaborate with team members, stakeholders, and government partners to understand requirements and deliver solutions
  
  

You Bring

• A humble and caring attitude aligning with For People’s values – how we work with passion, fun, curiosity, sustainability, humility, and respect
• Strong proficiency in modern JavaScript frameworks, particularly React and Next.js
• Experience with Drupal, preferably in a headless or decoupled architecture
• Familiarity with version control platforms, such as Git or Azure Repos
• A genuine passion for building user-centered digital services in government
• Excellent communication and interpersonal skills. You can clearly articulate technical concepts to both technical and non-technical audiences and thrive in a collaborative environment
• 4+ years of experience in software development and a Bachelor's Degree (or equivalent)

Location: 100% remote within the United States. Fully paid travel may be required 1-2 times per year to Washington, DC area for in-person team collaboration.
