Role Overview
We are seeking a seasoned Senior Drupal Developer with a solid full-stack profile to lead the architecture, development, and maintenance of high-performance web applications. With 5 to 7 years of experience, you will bridge the gap between robust backend logic and modern, interactive frontend experiences.
The ideal candidate is a PHP expert who has evolved with the web, mastering Drupal 10/11 while gaining significant proficiency in React.js, Angular.js for decoupled architectures and Node.js for scalable backend services or tooling.

Key Responsibilities
1. Drupal & PHP Core Development
Custom Module Development: Architect and write secure, object-oriented PHP code for custom Drupal modules.
Architecture Design: Design complex data schemas using Content Types, Paragraphs, Taxonomy, and Views.
Migrations: Lead large-scale data migrations from legacy systems into Drupal.
Performance Tuning: Optimize database queries and caching strategies (Redis/Memcached) to ensure sub-second page loads.
2. Modern Frontend & Decoupled Architecture
Headless Drupal:



Implement 'Decoupled' or 'Progressive Decoupled' Drupal setups using JSON:API or GraphQL.
React.js Integration: Build interactive UI components and Dashboards using React.js that consume Drupal data.
Theme Development: Create responsive, accessible (WCAG 2.1 compliant) themes using Twig, SASS, and modern build tools (Webpack/Vite).
3. JavaScript Ecosystem & Node.js
Server-Side Logic: Utilize Node.js for real-time features, microservices, or custom build scripts.
API Development: Build and maintain RESTful services and integrations with third-party platforms (CRMs, Payment Gateways).
4. Leadership & DevOps
Code Standards: Conduct rigorous code reviews and enforce PSR standards and Drupal coding best practices.
CI/CD Pipeline: Manage deployments using Git, Jenkins/GitHub Actions, and containerized environments (Docker/Lando/DDEV).
Mentorship: Guide junior and mid-level developers, providing technical clarity on complex tickets.
