•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

Required Skills & Experience

•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

•Experience pairing Sitecore JSS directly with a Next.js front end

•Sitecore personalization / Sitecore Personalize / CDP exposure
