Software Engineer

For one of our ongoing multiyear projects we are looking for Web Developers that can work alongside our software application team to achieve our goals. The ideal candidates for these positions are hands-on professionals with a strong knowledge of content management platforms, and an ability to translate the business needs into client-friendly functions that will expand our website's influence at Madison College. These two positions will be responsible for helping with the updating of our current online applications.

We are looking for these two different profiles :

• One front-end developer who does not need Drupal experience, but Drupal experience would be a plus. They would be able to take Photoshop mockups and translate them into HTML / CSS. This position requires a combination of programming skills (PHP, HTML, CSS, JS, etc.) and aesthetics (understanding element arrangements on the screen, the color and font choices, and so on). The best candidates have a strong understanding of higher education trends and content management systems. Experience with responsive and adaptive design is strongly preferred. In addition, an understanding of the entire web development process, including design, development, and deployment, with some back-end knowledge, is preferred.
• One back-end developer who will primarily be responsible for back-end / module development. The back-end developer would be someone who would be able to write custom Drupal 9 modules. They would be able to port the existing integrations and add to them as needed.
