Core Requirements:

3–6+ years experience with Drupal (8/9/10) and PHP Experience working with Pantheon hosting platform
Hands-on experience with:
Terminus CLI
MultiDev workflows
Upstream-based Drupal architectures
Strong experience with CI/CD pipelines (GitHub Actions, GitLab CI, or similar)
Comfortable debugging across:
Application code
Deployment pipelines
Hosting/platform environments
Systems & Engineering Mindset
Experience working in multi-site or multi-tenant architectures
Strong understanding of:
Version control (Git)

Ability to work across both application code and infrastructure workflows

Nice-to-Have (Bonus Skills):

Frontend experience with:
Vue.js
TypeScript
Scripting or backend experience with:
Node.js or Python
Experience with:
Accessibility standards (WCAG, VPAT)
Search platforms (e.g., MongoDB Atlas Search, vector search, RAG systems)
Familiarity with release automation patterns (auto-generated changelogs, commit parsing, etc.)

What Success Looks Like:

CI/CD pipelines are stable, fast, and require minimal manual intervention
Deployments across 400+ sites are predictable and low-risk
Platform automation continues to evolve (not stagnate)
Drupal platform remains stable and maintainable across tenants
Issues are proactively identified through improved observability and alerts

Why This Role Matters

Our platform supports a large portfolio of enterprise websites with a bi-weekly release cadence. Maintaining and evolving the systems that power these releases is critical to platform stability, developer productivity, and client trust.

This role ensures we continue to operate at scale while improving the systems that make that scale possible.
