• Knowledge of building with CMS systems using an API‑first approach via a backend‑for‑frontend (BFF)
• Strong focus on code quality and testing
• Understanding of accessibility concerns
• Ability to translate Figma or other high‑fidelity designs into functional components

Responsibilities

• Refine system requirements and translate them into high‑quality, working software
• Participate in Agile ceremonies and suggest improvements to our ways of working
• Share knowledge, pair‑program, and review code through pull requests
• Prioritize testing and correctness with extensive test automation across tools
• Take ownership of work, proactively addressing impediments to delivery

About You

• Experience supporting content‑driven pages primarily using Next.js or similar
• Basic understanding of AWS and/or Vercel and navigating their ecosystems
• Self‑motivated and a team player
