[8IB] Senior Drupal/WebOps Engineer

About the Role

We are seeking a Senior Drupal / WebOps Engineer to help operate, maintain, and extend a large-scale enterprise web platform powering 400+ Drupal sites. This role sits at the intersection of application engineering and platform operations, ensuring reliable, scalable deployments across a multi-site architecture.

You will build on modern automation foundations (GitHub Actions, Pantheon Terminus, Quicksilver) and drive improvements in release velocity, reliability, and observability across the platform.

What You’ll Work On

• CI/CD & Platform Automation

  • Maintain and extend GitHub Actions-based CI/CD pipelines

  • Manage automated workflows for MultiDev environment creation (Pantheon), Canary deployments, phased releases, and fleet-wide upstream deployments

  • Troubleshoot pipeline failures and improve resiliency and observability

  • Enhance automation around release processes, including changelog generation and deployment validation

• Pantheon & Hosting Operations

  • Work with Pantheon platform tooling (Terminus CLI, MultiDev environments, upstream management, and site orchestration)

  • Support platform stability, deployment workflows, and environment lifecycle management

• Drupal Engineering (Backend Focus)

  • Contribute to and maintain a Drupal 10-based multi-tenant platform

  • Develop and support custom modules, integrations, and backend logic

  • Debug and resolve issues across a shared codebase impacting multiple sites

  • Ensure best practices for performance, security, and maintainability

• Automation & Observability

  • Extend automation using Quicksilver (even-driven workflows) and messaging integrations (e.g., Google Chat notifications)

  • Improve visibility into system health, deployment outcomes, and failures

Core Requirements

• +90% English written and oral (at least C1 level) with excellent communication skills

• 3–6+ years of experience with Drupal (8/9/10) and PHP

• Experience working with the Pantheon hosting platform

• Hands-on experience with Terminus CLI, MultiDev workflows, and upstream-based Drupal architectures

• Strong experience with CI/CD pipelines (GitHub Actions, GitLab CI, or similar)

• Comfortable debugging across application code, deployment pipelines, and hosting/platform environments

• Experience working in multi-site or multi-tenant architectures

• Strong understanding of version control (Git), deployment strategies (canary, phased rollouts), and environment management (dev/test/prod isolation)

• Ability to work across both application code and infrastructure workflows

Nice-to-Have (Bonus Skills)

• Frontend experience with Vue.js and TypeScript

• Scripting or backend experience with Node.js or Python

• Experience with accessibility standards (WCAG, VPAT)

• Familiarity with search platforms (MongoDB Atlas Search, vector search, RAG systems)

• Knowledge of 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 and improve

• 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.
