Web Developer
About the role
We're not here to add to the noise. We're here to cut through it- with AI that actually works for marketers. From AI-powered content creation to world-class CMS and the industry's most trusted experimentation platform, Optimizely is the tool modern marketers actually want to use. AI-Ready. Set. Go. 10,000+ brands including H&M, PayPal, and Zoom already get it. So do Gartner, Forrester, and IDC, who consistently recognize us as leaders in MarTech. But here's the thing about building great products: it takes great people. Our 1,600+ Optimizers across 12 global offices are curious, collaborative, and refreshingly human. We don't do corporate speak. We do real conversations, big ideas, and genuinely care for the work we make together. If you want to be part of a team that's shaping the future of marketing technology — and actually enjoys doing it — you're in the right place.

Working closely with a team of multidisciplinary designers, content creators, and senior engineers, you will build and maintain reusable UI components, ship pixel-accurate pages from Figma, and connect the front end to content through a headless CMS.
