Senior Drupal Backend Developer

Chief Technical Architect
ramsalt-team

Location: Remote – within the European Economic Area (EEA)
Language: English (Scandinavian language skills are a plus)
Start: As soon as possible

Join Ramsalt and build meaningful digital platforms.

Ramsalt is a people-first, remote-first agency built on Scandinavian values of openness, responsibility, and trust. We work with mission-driven clients — from NGOs to universities and publishers — and care about clean code, real collaboration, and a sustainable way of working.

The role

As a Senior Drupal Backend Developer, you’ll work on a mix of impactful projects — from large-scale publishing platforms to NGO sites and headless CMS solutions.

You’ll take ownership of architecture and development, mentor teammates, and share your knowledge both inside and outside the team.

What you’ll do:

  • Architect and develop scalable Drupal solutions
  • Lead backend development and API integrations
  • Support team members through reviews and collaboration
  • Ensure code quality, testing and maintainability
  • Participate in planning, deployment and CI/CD workflows
  • Contribute to open source and share knowledge internally and externally

What we’re looking for

Required:

  • 5+ years of hands-on experience with advanced Drupal projects
  • Strong PHP skills, including Composer and Symfony components
  • Familiarity with Git-based workflows and code reviews
  • Ability to work independently and proactively in a remote setup
  • Fluent in English
  • Legal residence and work rights in the EEA

Nice to have:

  • Scandinavian language skills (Norwegian, Swedish or Danish)
  • Contributions to open source projects (especially on drupal.org)
  • Experience with hosting platforms (Amazee, Pantheon, Acquia)
  • Familiarity with JavaScript frameworks (React, Vue, etc.)
  • Knowledge of CI/CD, Docker or headless architectures

You don’t need to tick every single box. We know that great developers come with a variety of experiences, and we’re open to shaping the role based on your strengths. If you’re missing some of the “nice to have” skills – don’t worry, let’s talk anyway.

What we offer

  • 100% remote-first work environment
  • 37.5 hours / week
  • 7 weeks paid vacation (including public holidays)
  • Flexible working hours around the CET timezone
  • 2–3 team retreats per year (including DrupalCon, all expenses paid)
  • An international and inclusive team — Norway, Germany, Spain, Ghana, Netherlands, Canada and more!
  • One full day per month for learning, open source or side projects (we call them "RamDays")
  • Access to various learning platforms
  • Competitive regional salary

More about Ramsalt
