Freelance CMS Developer

Studio Freight is looking for a Freelance CMS Developer to assist our team in building digital experiences.

In working side-by-side with the Studio Freight team, you’ll need to navigate ambiguous and iterative circumstances to move projects forward, notice opportunities and make suggestions for improvement, support initiatives for both internal and external aspects of the studio, apply your experience and expertise to elevate production, and create work you’ll be proud of for years to come.

Responsibilities

Your day-to-day responsibilities.

• Evaluating designs in Figma and defining the schemas required.
• Building section schemas, page types and site-level structures in Storyblok or Sanity, as required.
• Making the editor form usable: field types, validations, defaults, descriptions, tabs, as well as identifying which blocks are allowed for individual page types.
• Updating schemas as designs change, including custom fields and frontend component maps.
• Rigorously testing and debugging your work to ensure it is free of errors, meets performance standards and is user-friendly. You may also find yourself fixing bugs identified by our QA team.
• Creating and maintaining clear & organized documentation for project schemas.
• Promoting the CMS instance to production before it goes live, including confirming web-hooks and environment variables, as well as conducting final content verifications.
• Vaulting projects after handoff: repository, Vercel deployment, CMS duplication and Notion documentation.

Qualifications

Your experience that sets you up for success.

• Excellent attention to detail.

• You have hands-on Storyblok

  or Sanity

  content modeling: content types, nestible blocks, field restrictions, datasources and preview or draft workflow.

• Your collaboration with team members enhances the quality and efficiency of projects.
• You have experience with reading Figma files and feel comfortable turning a block into a schema. This includes fields, nested items and instructions on editor-populated items.
• Files and deliverables you manage are well-organized and you consistently meet deadlines.
• You actively elevate the studio’s work by the quality of your own.
• Demonstrable and reviewable codebase available for review. We’d also appreciate your willingness to walk us through schemas created on prior projects.
