Drupal Developer

Offshorly is an AI-fuelled digital agency that pairs cost-effective, outsourced delivery teams with experienced UK management. We are looking for a mid-level Drupal Developer to build, maintain, and evolve client websites and web applications on modern Drupal. This role centres on Drupal 11 — the current major version — with an eye on the upcoming Drupal 12 (late 2026) and the migration of any remaining Drupal 10 sites ahead of their end-of-life. You will work across the stack: from configuration, module development, and integrations on the back end, to Twig theming on the front end, within a Composer-based, standards-driven workflow. Note on tech currency: - We build on actively supported Drupal (11.x today), use Recipes and Composer-managed dependencies, and keep sites current with security releases. - Legacy Drupal 7/9 experience is welcome context, but this role is focused on modern Drupal, not legacy maintenance. Key responsibilities: - Develop, customise, and maintain Drupal 11 websites and web applications for UK and international clients. - Build custom modules and extend functionality using Drupal’s object-oriented PHP framework and Symfony components. - Implement front-end designs with Twig templating and the Drupal asset library system, ensuring responsive, accessible output. - Configure sites using modern Drupal tooling — configuration management, Recipes, and Composer-based dependency workflows. - Integrate third-party services and APIs (REST/JSON:API) with Drupal back ends. - Apply security updates and keep sites on supported Drupal releases; support Drupal 10-to-11 (and, in time, 11-to-12) upgrades. - Write clean, testable, well-documented code that follows Drupal coding standards and industry best practice. - Collaborate with designers, project managers, and other developers in an Agile delivery process. - Participate in code reviews, troubleshooting, and performance optimisation. Essential skills & experience: - 3+ years of hands-on Drupal development — including at least commercial experience on Drupal 9, 10, or 11. - Strong PHP (8.3+) — and a solid grasp of object-oriented programming. - Custom module development — and use of Drupal’s APIs, hooks, and plugin/service architecture. - Twig theming — and front-end fundamentals (HTML5, CSS3, JavaScript). - Composer-based workflow — managing dependencies, core, and contrib modules the modern way. - Database proficiency — with MySQL/MariaDB, including views and query optimisation. - Version control — with Git in a collaborative, branch-based workflow. - Understanding of Drupal security — and the discipline of keeping sites on supported, patched releases. - Good written English — and clear communication in a remote, UK-managed team.
