Greatist

Drupal Developer

Greatist is on a big mission to change the way people think about health. It’s an exciting time at our company as each addition both shapes the future impact we intend to have and the way we work to get there. Today, we are a small, scrappy, and growing team of doers and makers working to help everyone live with a healthy attitude. And we’re looking for people that will add to our culture, join us on this mission, and be the best at what they do!

About the Role / Why This Position Rocks

This is a great opportunity to show off your Drupal skills and put the Drupal best practices back into our Drupal experience. We are a passionate team of engineers who are poised to do some really interesting things. The long term goal is to build a highly available and fault tolerant architecture that will allow Drupal to excel at what it does best, build forms for content entry. We’re also looking to build out an API for both content syndication as well as the site rendering. We’ve got big plans to do exciting things. Right now, our biggest goal is to create a seamless experience for all of our different users so we need someone who can come in to help make this happen. We’re looking for someone who knows how to fix things, but won't lose sight of the big picture. A person that has an eye for implementing standards but isn’t afraid to innovate within those standards and also has an eye for what's next in technology and thinking about how we can bring new technology into the work we do.
