Development Seed is looking for a smart, creative person who knows Drupal and is passionate about making websites that will impact progressive organizations and their causes.  

This job is for a Drupal site builder – you can work from anywhere in the world. Coding isn’t the only job role, you will be involved in every step of the projects you work on. For a typical project, you will:

- Help plan how to build a website or online tool to meet an organization’s needs and goals
- Convert mock-ups into theme files
- Install and configure modules, or build new modules
- Help organizations migrate their content
- Train people to maintain and update the site

Essentially, one day you will work with a client to develop a new outreach strategy and the next day build a new module, or modify an existing one, to work with this strategy.

The right person for the job will like to think up creative, new ideas and get his or her hands dirty in a project. This person also must like to work independently and have the social skills needed to work one on one with a client to push a project through.




Lets start working for a month on a project and see what it turns into...



You need to know some Drupal, PHP, MySQL, and CSS/HTML.





Good Salary – dependent upon experience


About Development Seed:
We are a small internet strategy shop based in Washington DC.  We don't just envision outreach solutions. We also sit down and design and build them on Drupal. Our edge is that  we work closely with our clients to measure our impact, making our strategy very street smart. We like getting our hands dirty and learning from every project.

We work progressive organizations that have world changing agendas, realize the potential of online tools, and want to put themselves out there and try new things. The trusting relationship we have with our clients allows us to work on cutting edge functionality. It is a great combination of motivations - really interesting work that’s for organizations that you admire. Our main niche is international development (we actually started as an organization out in the hills of Peru working on development projects that needed multilingual sites).

Send us something that shows us you are right for the job and would be cool to work with. Email: jobs@developmentseed.org
