Drupal.org is staffing up

Reposted from Drupal Association website

The Drupal Association Board of Directors has committed to significantly improving Drupal.org in 2014. As a result, we are staffing up, working with contractors, and improving volunteer engagement paths so that we can really accelerate change on the site this year and keep the momentum going into next year.

What’s next for Drupal.org?

The primary imperative outlined in our 2014 Leadership Plan and Budget is to make Drupal.org shine. Here are the things I am going to be focused on most immediately to that end:

We are adding infrastructure, engineering and design staff

Through most of 2013, we had two technical positions on the Drupal Association staff. This was not enough to do much more that keep up with pressing issues in the issue queue and support the volunteers put in massive work in maintaining our infrastructure. In 2014, we are hiring the following positions:

We also need design (theming) and UX support to help push us forward. To that end, we are posting three positions with the intent to get the best possible single hire for 2014.

Additional design and user experience positions are planned for 2015. We will continue shore up our technical team with committed volunteers and will also be looking to strategically use contractors to move important projects forward.

Help us find the best
