eNGINE is hiring an experienced engineer to lead the backend migration of a company's marketing website from WordPress to Contentful, hosted on Azure. The organization has a strong in-house frontend team but lacks backend expertise in this area, so you'll be the technical anchor for the project. You'll work closely with the marketing department to ensure a smooth transition that keeps the public-facing experience intact.

Responsibilities:

\n

    \n
  • Plan and execute the migration of existing WordPress content to Contentful
  • \n

  • Design content models, structures, and workflows in Contentful that fit the marketing team's needs
  • \n

  • Configure and manage the Contentful environment and its integration with Azure infrastructure
  • \n

  • Work with the in-house frontend team to ensure the new backend supports the existing frontend without visible changes
  • \n

  • Migrate pages and media assets, including embedded video content
  • \n

  • Build automation and templating that standardize recurring content types. A key example is press releases: currently each is built from scratch and styled to look as consistent as possible by hand. The target state is that once content is entered, a single action generates a consistently formatted press release page
  • \n

  • Partner with the marketing department to understand their publishing workflows and make sure the new system works for them
  • \n

  • Document the architecture, content models, and processes for handoff

  • Strong backend development skills and content architecture experience
  • \n

  • Experience building automation or templating for content publishing workflows
  • \n

  • Ability to collaborate effectively with non-technical stakeholders, particularly marketing teams
