Position: Web Developer (Needed for Data Migration From Drupal To Word Press) (Remote)

Direct Client

Location: Geneseo, NY

Contract: 9+ Months

No OPTs/H1s for this Role.

Job Description:

Project: Migration of SUNY Geneseo s Drupal 10 website (~6,550 pages) and Scene Magazine WordPress site (~450 pages) to a modern WordPress architecture.

Content Migration Requirements

  • Accurately migrate all content, media, and metadata from the current Drupal 10 website to the new WordPress environment.
  • Demonstrated expertise with Drupal to WordPress migration.
  • Content must be structured using WordPress s native Block Editor to ensure flexible, reusable layouts and enable ongoing content management by non-technical users.
  • Preserve all taxonomy relationships, metadata, internal associations, and SEO-relevant attributes, including meta titles, descriptions, canonical URLs, and image alt text.
  • Maintain independent navigation for subsites and migrate existing menu hierarchies. See the user permissions section for more information.
  • Migrate and preserve all existing 301 redirects associated with Drupal content. No URL changes are planned for pages transitioning directly from Drupal. Pages migrated from the WordPress-based Scene Magazine site (~450 pages) will require new 301 redirects to reflect updated URLs.
  • Ensure general functional parity with Drupal content types by mapping them to the WordPress content model defined by Geneseo staff or vendor-recommended structures.

Note: The current Drupal site relies on the Bootstrap 5 framework and includes custom CSS and layout behaviors that may not translate directly to WordPress.

Content Types to Migrate

  • Basic Pages (approximately 4,550)
  • Advanced Pages (with Paragraphs) (approximately 250)
  • Faculty Pages (approximately 500)
  • Academic Program Pages (approximately 100)
  • Department News (approximately 250)
  • News Articles (approximately 600)
  • Research Briefs (approximately 26)
  • Scene Magazine Pages (WordPress) (approximately 5)
  • Scene Magazine Posts (WordPress) (approximately 424)

Testing and Quality Assurance

  • Confirm full and correct migration of content, metadata, and links.
  • Verify SEO metadata, taxonomy, redirects, and general functional parity.
  • Perform basic accessibility audits.
  • Identify and report any formatting issues.

Performance Optimization

  • Migrate and optimize images.
  • Enqueue assets properly; remove redundant code.
  • Implement caching, compression, and load performance strategies.
  • Provide a post-migration Core Web Vitals report and recommendations.
