We're looking for a full-time (or really good part-time) Drupal webmaster to help an online publishing network grow.

You'd be the frontline Drupalist for helping a half-dozen editors do the company's day-to-day business -- ie., publish content and provide a pleasant experience for readers. We mainly use Drupal 6.x, but have some sites in 5.x. Will probably start upgrading to 7.x in 6-12 months.

You'd be joining the team that publishes Wise Bread (http://www.wisebread.com - a personal finance and frugal living portal) and a couple other sites.

---------------------

Job details:

1) Must be California resident.

2) Full time. 40 hours per week. (We'll consider part-time folks who are a great fit.)

3) Work from home.

Set some of your own hours. We'll have scheduled meetings, and prefer you to be available at certain times during normal business hours, but there is some flexibility in scheduling.

---------------------

Job description / responsibilities:

1) Work the help desk ticketing system.

- Resolve trouble tickets from a user base of a few dozen writers and editors.

- Act on tickets that are Drupal webmaster day-to-day tasks. For example: create a new user role, setup a new node type, insert/style new block into theme, etc.

- Triage other tickets by escalating / assigning as appropriate.

2) Help during Drupal maintenance upgrades of core, contributed, and custom modules.

3) Work with tech and editorial teams to build an awesome publishing platform for readers and writers.

- Streamline processes with documentation and more efficient procedures.

- Suggest improvements considering security, speed, usability, etc.

- Work with dev team to come up with creative "Drupal way" solutions to our ever expanding wishlist.

---------------------

Ideal candidate:

1) You love troubleshooting and solving problems. The thanks and gratefulness of a happy user base makes your day.

2) You know how to configure the heck out of a View (with arguments, relationships, the works), but not necessarily know how to write a Views plugin.

3) You love Drupal and want to be in it 24/7. You are hungry to learn more about Drupal internals. We do some pretty cool Drupal tricks, and love learning new tricks, so you will have a chance to advance your Drupal skills working for the company.

4) 1+ years of Drupal experience.

---------------------

To apply:

Email jobs@killeraces.com with "drupal webmaster" in the subject line.

Please include:

1) What you do now.

2) Why you would be a good fit for the job.

3) Your salary requirements.

4) Your Drupal experience. Please include your relevant experience, a sample of projects you've worked on, your drupal.org username, and anything else Drupal-related we should know about you.

5) More Q&A. Please answer:

- Which Drupal 7 features excite you the most?

- What are a couple of really well done Drupal-powered sites you've seen? It doesn't have to be your work. (I like looking at well-done Drupal sites. :)
