Our Tate Online team has a responsibility for optimising and co-ordinating the Tate's public facing digital content. Tate's website is the UK's most popular museum website with around 1.5 million visits each month. With an ambitious website overhaul recently completed, we now need a Drupal specialist to join our team to extend our digital offer with new social features, an ambitious digitisation project, mobile functionality and more. You'll work closely with colleagues to carry out application development for Tate Online, designing and delivering enhancements to the Drupal CMS and ensuring effective solutions and ongoing system efficiency. To do so, you'll help analyse user requirements, lead on solution design and ensure broad compatibility/integration, using robust testing and maintenance to deliver results. A champion of emerging technologies and information sharing, you will maintain relevant documentation and recommend developments where you see fit. Experienced in Drupal CMS development, you'll have significant experience of relevant products, including PHP, Drupal 6/7, revision control systems (GitHub and Subversion) and web server technologies (Apache, MySQL, Linux). Basic use of Linux/UNIX is required, as is experience of integrating Drupal with third- party systems, and you will have a good knowledge of security issues regarding web applications. Capable of producing high-quality planning/technical documentation, you will have excellent communications and organisational skills together with a flexible, proactive attitude and the ability to prioritise. An interest in the Tate and the work that we do goes without saying. With four major sites across England, Tate holds the national collection of British art from 1500 to the present day as well as international modern and contemporary art. This is an exciting time to join us as we are embarking on the next stage of our development, which will see the completion of Tate Modern and the further development of the visitor facilities and gallery spaces at Tate Britain. With all these developments, we aim to increase public awareness, understanding, and appreciation of this art. Join our committed team, and help take our collections to the widest audience possible.
