The Position

San Diego Miramar College, a student-ready college, invites all qualified candidates to apply for the position of Web Designer, a full-stack developer position. Miramar College, a leader in providing student access and success, seeks candidates who are motivated by serving students in a college community and are committed to diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI).

We are a fast‑growing and innovative college with a freshly adopted focus on diversity, equity, and inclusion as we move into a new era. Recently designated as an emerging Minority Serving Institution (MSI) the College is committed to helping students access higher education and achieve success inside and outside the classroom.

The College is located in the Mira Mesa/Scripps Ranch area of San Diego and is one of four colleges/centers in the San Diego Community College District. Our student population of 14,972 [African American (5%), American Indian or Alaskan Native (<1%), Asian (13%), Filipino (6%), Hispanic/Latina/o/e/x (31%), Multiple Ethnicities (8%), Pacific Islander (1%), White (34%), Unreported (2%)] is reflective of the diverse community we serve. Additionally, candidates should be able to demonstrate ways they will develop tools and resources to better serve historically marginalized and minoritized populations. We strongly encourage candidates who possess the experience for the position, and who are student-centered and continue to demonstrate a commitment to diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) to best serve our student population.

Those who join our team at San Diego Miramar College can expect to be part of an inclusive, innovative, and equity-focused community that promotes broad collaboration among faculty, classified professionals, administration, students, and community and industry partners. We are proud of our commitment to create a socially just and responsive culture, host ethnically diverse speakers, and support various equity-focused professional development opportunities. Our college strives to ensure that students reach their full potential by eliminating gaps in academic outcomes that traditionally hinder students of color and disproportionately impacted students.

In fact, the college’s commitment to diversity, equity, and inclusion is encapsulated by our newly adopted Strategic Goal #5: Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion (DEI) – Build an environment that embraces diversity, equity, inclusion, anti-racism, and social justice for the benefit of the college community. Strategic Direction includes updating college processes within an equity framework, professional development for the campus, and incorporating equity-minded practices in instructional pedagogy, student-centered services, and recruitment/retention of employees. Applicants can review Miramar College’s full strategic plan at the linked document.

Applications are currently being accepted for Web Designer, located at San Diego Miramar College. Schedule is tentatively Monday – Friday: 8:00am – 4:30pm, with possible evening and weekend assignments. Selected candidate must be willing to adjust work days/hours based on the department’s needs.

Please note that an employee may be transferred to any site at the option of the Chancellor.

Applicants should be experienced managing a LAMP (or similar) stack, docker containers, Linux servers and have experience utilizing open source software and community maintained modules as well as providing custom themes/modules/functionality.
