Web Developer

For its Communication Department in Garching, within the Office of the Director General, ESO is opening an International Staff Member position of Web Developer

At ESO, we believe in the power of science to expand the frontiers of human knowledge. Our digital platforms are key to sharing this mission with the world - and we're looking for a skilled and proactive Web Developer to help build and maintain the technical foundations of ESO's online presence.

This is a project-related role, initially limited to three years, with the main focus on supporting the implementation of our new Adobe Experience Manager (AEM)-based Content Management System (CMS). As a member of ESO's Digital Communications team, you'll develop templates and components, maintain front- and back-end systems, and support the migration from our current Django/Python CMS. You will also support other digital infrastructure that powers ESO's public-facing communication platforms - and ensure they are stable, scalable, and user-friendly.

Working closely with the Head of Digital Communications, the IT Department, and external providers, you'll play a key role in maintaining the CMS, supporting the web publishing workflow, and improving how our communication teams manage digital content, media assets, and collaborative tools.
