[Hiring] Senior Web Developer @Phrase

Role Description

As a Senior Web Developer at Phrase, you will lead the rebuild of phrase.com, transitioning from WordPress to a modern stack using Next.js, Storyblok, and Vercel. This role involves working directly from existing Figma designs and utilizing AI-assisted development workflows.

Once the new site is live, you will become the primary technical owner of phrase.com across six languages, collaborating closely with the Senior Web & SEO Manager.

What you'll be responsible for:

• Lead the technical build of the new phrase.com site on Next.js, Storyblok, and Vercel, working from the agreed Figma component library and design tokens.
• Use AI-assisted development tools and agentic coding workflows, such as Claude Code, as a core part of daily work.
• Build and document a reusable Storyblok component library so non-developers can assemble new pages without a ticket.
• Script and run the content migration from WordPress into Storyblok's content model.
• Implement the redirect map, hreflang reconstruction, and staged rollout plan defined by the Senior Web & SEO Manager.
• Set up automated accessibility and performance checks, such as axe and Lighthouse, in CI.
• Own the live site day to day, covering bug fixes, new landing and campaign pages, content-model changes, and integration updates.
• Serve as marketing's primary technical point of contact for the website.
• Monitor site health, including performance, uptime, and respond to issues as they arise.
• Evolve the component library and codebase as new marketing and localization needs come up.

Qualifications

• Proven senior-level, production experience with React and Next.js, including SSR/SSG and performance optimisation.
• Hands-on experience with a headless CMS — Storyblok strongly preferred, though Contentful, Sanity, or similar will be considered.
• Real, demonstrable fluency working with AI coding agents such as Claude Code, Cursor, or Copilot as a daily workflow.
• Working knowledge of technical SEO fundamentals — redirects, hreflang, structured data, Core Web Vitals.
• Comfortable owning a system end-to-end without a large supporting team.
• Experience with Vercel or a comparable modern hosting and deployment platform.
• Professional English, written and spoken.
