NJ Hybrid - Sitecore Developer

About the role

We're looking for a Sitecore Developer to own the CMS side of the platform — content modeling, component development, and the headless layer that feeds our Next.js front end. You'll partner closely with front-end engineers, architects, and content authors to deliver scalable, well-structured, author-friendly experiences.

Responsibilities

• Develop and maintain Sitecore solutions in a headless architecture using Sitecore JSS and/or Sitecore XM Cloud
• Build and configure templates, renderings, components, and content models that empower content authors
• Implement the headless content layer (Layout Service / Experience Edge / GraphQL) consumed by the Next.js front end
• Collaborate with Next.js/React developers to define component contracts and data structures
• Build reusable, parameterized components supporting personalization and multi-site/multi-language needs
• Manage serialization, CI/CD, and deployments (Sitecore CLI, Content Serialization)
• Troubleshoot performance, caching, and publishing issues across the stack
• Follow Sitecore best practices, Helix principles, and secure coding standards

Requirements

• 6+ years of Sitecore development experience
• Hands-on experience with headless Sitecore — Sitecore JSS and/or XM Cloud
• Strong C# / .NET and Sitecore backend development (templates, renderings, pipelines)
• Experience with the Layout Service, Experience Edge, and GraphQL content APIs
• Understanding of how headless content is consumed by a modern front end (React / Next.js)
• Familiarity with Sitecore CLI, Content Serialization, and CI/CD deployment workflows
• Knowledge of Helix architecture principles and modular Sitecore design
• Solid grasp of caching, publishing, and multi-site/multi-language configurations

Nice to Have

• Sitecore XM Cloud production experience and/or Sitecore certification (Sitecore 10.x)
• Experience pairing Sitecore JSS directly with a Next.js front end
• Sitecore personalization / Sitecore Personalize / CDP exposure
• Background in enterprise or data-heavy application environments
