The Role

Job Title: CMS Web Developer

Length: 6 months - 1 year contract

Location: Canada

Brainrider is seeking a CMS Web Developer to support a large-scale technology client's developer-focused web properties and digital experiences.

This role combines hands-on CMS development, web strategy, UX optimization, and technical problem-solving. You'll be responsible for building, maintaining, and improving web experiences across developer websites, product launches, events, and digital campaigns.

We're looking for someone who is comfortable working across the full lifecycle of a web project - from understanding business needs and evaluating site performance to recommending improvements, implementing updates, coordinating with engineering, and measuring results.

The ideal candidate is technically capable, detail-oriented, and proactive, with the ability to manage multiple priorities in a fast-moving environment. You'll also be expected to leverage AI tools to improve workflows, accelerate production, and maintain a high standard of quality.

What You'll Do

CMS Development & Website Management

Build, update, and maintain web pages, landing pages, blogs, and other digital content across internal and external CMS platforms.
Implement website updates using CMS tools and front-end technologies, including HTML, CSS, and JavaScript.
Work within existing component-based design systems, identifying when new or updated components are needed.
Partner with engineering teams on more complex development needs, technical enhancements, and troubleshooting.
Support content publishing, website maintenance, and updates across developer-focused web properties.
Ensure all website updates are responsive, accessible, accurate, and aligned with brand and technical requirements.

Web Strategy, UX & Optimization

Collaborate with cross-functional partners to identify opportunities to improve website functionality, user experience, and engagement.
Review website analytics and performance data to identify opportunities for optimization.
Recommend and support UX/UI improvements, including page layouts, navigation, content organization, and calls to action.
Develop design concepts and coordinate design and brand reviews before implementation.
Partner with engineering to scope and implement new website components or functionality.
Monitor performance following launches and updates to evaluate effectiveness and identify further improvements.

Website Launches & Cross-Functional Collaboration

Support end-to-end execution of website projects tied to product launches, events, campaigns, and ongoing site improvements.
Work closely with product, marketing, design, engineering, and other stakeholders to gather requirements, establish priorities, and deliver updates.
Coordinate multiple workstreams, including design reviews, technical requirements, approvals, testing, and publishing.
Manage competing priorities and respond quickly to time-sensitive requests, including high-visibility launches with compressed timelines.
Conduct thorough QA across devices, browsers, and screen sizes to ensure content and functionality are working as expected.
Troubleshoot website issues, identify root causes, and coordinate resolutions with the appropriate teams.

Forms, Integrations & Analytics

Build, maintain, and optimize web forms, including lead generation and registration experiences.
Support integrations between website forms, CMS platforms, and systems such as Salesforce.
Troubleshoot form functionality, submission issues, and related technical workflows.
Implement and validate analytics tracking, tagging, and reporting requirements.
Support performance reporting and provide actionable insights to stakeholders.
Apply SEO best practices, including metadata, content structure, and website optimization.

AI, Automation & Process Improvement

Actively leverage AI tools to accelerate website development, content publishing, troubleshooting, and QA.
Identify opportunities to automate repetitive CMS tasks, reporting, and operational workflows.
Use AI-assisted tools to support page creation, debugging, technical problem-solving, and workflow efficiency.
Explore and recommend improvements to existing tools, systems, and processes that increase speed, quality, and scalability.
Balance efficiency with strong quality control, ensuring AI-assisted work is reviewed and validated before launch.

What You'll Bring

3–5 years of experience in web development, CMS management, or a hybrid web production/development role.
Strong working knowledge of HTML, CSS, and JavaScript.
Hands-on experience building and maintaining websites within enterprise CMS platforms.
Familiarity with component-based website architectures and reusable design systems.
Experience supporting website launches, content publishing, and ongoing site optimization.
Understanding of UX/UI principles and the ability to translate performance insights into practical website improvements.
Experience working with web analytics tools to evaluate site performance and engagement.
Strong QA and troubleshooting skills, with exceptional attention to detail.
Experience using AI tools to support development, automation, debugging, and productivity.
Ability to manage multiple projects and changing priorities in a fast-paced environment.
Strong communication skills and experience collaborating with technical and non-technical stakeholders.
Comfortable taking ownership of workstreams, identifying issues proactively, and working independently.

Nice to Have

Experience supporting developer-focused, technical, or product-led websites.
Familiarity component-based front-end frameworks.
Experience code reviews, or structured development workflows.
Experience with Salesforce, particularly web forms, lead generation, and CRM integrations.
Familiarity with WordPress or other enterprise CMS platforms.
Experience with Figma, Adobe Creative Suite, or other design tools.
Experience supporting high-visibility product launches, live events, or time-sensitive website updates.
Familiarity with SEO, accessibility standards, and web performance optimization.
Experience building AI-assisted workflows or automations for web production.
Exposure to PHP, CI/CD, or other development and deployment processes.
