  • Strong understanding of developer workflows, with hands-on experience in API integration and design (REST vs. GraphQL).

  • Familiarity with content modelling, federation concepts, and managing remote sources.

  • Comfortable with developer tools like Postman, curl, GraphQL Playground, GitHub, and CI/CD pipelines.

  • Good grasp of modern web architecture, including headless CMS, CDNs, caching strategies, and frontend-backend separation.

  • Strong analytical and problem-solving skills; data-driven approach to prioritisation and decision-making.

  • Excellent communication and collaboration skills, with the ability to engage effectively with both technical and non-technical stakeholders.

The process:

  • Intro call with People Team
