Drupal Developer
location: Brussels
For a specific project within the European Commission, we are looking for a heavyweight Drupal Backend Developer. We are not looking for a generalist web developer, but a specialist who knows the Drupal architecture inside out and can translate complex business logic into robust code.
While the primary focus is on backend architecture, we expect a 'Full-Stack' mindset: you understand how your backend communicates with high-end front-end frameworks and take responsibility for the overall technical integrity.
Your Technical Stack
- Drupal Backend (Core Focus): In-depth knowledge of Drupal (9/10+) core, custom module development, and complex API integrations. You are an expert in PHP and the Symfony architecture within the Drupal ecosystem.
- Templating: Extensive experience with TWIG to create a seamless bridge to the front-end.
- Front-End Frameworks: * React: Absolute priority. You have experience with headless or decoupled solutions.
- Angular: Proficiency at a level that allows you to be immediately deployed in existing environments.
- Advanced JavaScript: Strong proficiency is required.
- Languages: English (fluent).
Design & User Experience
Despite your deep backend focus, you have a keen eye for the end user:
- You possess strong knowledge of UX/UI principles and apply them practically in your technical decisions.
- You ensure the backend optimally facilitates the front-end for a superior user experience.
Who We Are Looking For: The Expert
The Commission is exclusively looking for Experts. This means:
- You are an authority in your field with a proven track record in enterprise-level environments.
- You are accustomed to working according to the highest standards regarding security and clean code.
- You can substantiate architectural choices and provide high-level advice.
Contract Options
We are looking for the best match and offer flexibility in the collaboration:
- Project Contract (Employee): A payroll contract for the duration of the project, including a competitive package that reflects your expert status.
- Freelance: Collaboration on a freelance basis for the duration of the project.
