About The Position

The Arbor Day Foundation is a global nonprofit inspiring people to plant, nurture, and celebrate trees. We foster a growing community of more than one million leaders, innovators, planters, and supporters united by our bold belief that a more hopeful future can be shaped through the power of trees. Join the Arbor Day Foundation as a Drupal Developer and become the in-house owner of our Drupal 10 multisite ecosystem. You’ll help ensure our sites are secure, performant, and easy to build on - reducing dependency on external partners and accelerating delivery for our teams. This role is ideal for an engineer who enjoys owning a platform end-to-end, partnering closely with designers and content teams, and improving systems over time -not just shipping features and moving on. This role is based in Lincoln, Nebraska. Team members in Lincoln work in-office on Monday, Tuesday, and Thursday, with optional remote work on Wednesday and Friday. The Drupal Developer reports to the Manager of Software Engineering and partners closely with Digital Experience, UX/design, content, analytics, and external collaborators.

• Experience working in CI/CD workflows like Git or Azure DevOps.
• Ability to translate stakeholder needs into durable, reusable components.
• Collaborative mindset and comfort working across design, content, and engineering teams.

Responsibilities

• Plan and execute monthly Drupal core and module updates.
• Manage code, content, and database promotions across environments.
• Monitor uptime, performance, and release health in coordination with platform tools.
• Extend and maintain Twig-based templates, view modes, and SCSS-backed components.

• Build and configure features that support membership, giving, and engagement.
• Implement integrations and enhancements aligned with business priorities.

Benefits

• Our work changes the world. We find deep purpose in our daily work, we’re helping to shape the planet for future generations.
• We're in this together. A culture focused on a genuine interest in the wellbeing of others, collaboration, and the intrinsic shared purpose to do what's right.
• We care about your health. We offer competitive healthcare (health, dental, vision) coverage for you and your loved ones matched with a wellness incentives program.
• We invest in your future. Company paid short-term and long-term disability, paid parental leave, life insurance and 401k with company match are available.
• We know the little things matter. Lincoln team members receive a monthly parking stipend, a fully stocked kitchen, and access to a plethora of benefits at Arbor Day Farm.
• We care about your growth. We allocate 40+ hours annually for our team members to focus on learning and development.
