Background
We see that Digital Experiences get richer with added functionality and with more advanced integrations handling more specialized solutions which often leads to further complexity in the architecture. We've therefore asked ourselves - and discussed with some of you, how we can contribute to a simpler and more standardized developer experience under such circumstances.
At the same time, we've been on a journey with our headless SaaS offering called Heartcore. It started as our only headless offering 5 years ago, but over time the headless features have found their way into the Open Source CMS so that the uniqueness of Heartcore today is the Content Deliver Platform with GraphQL on top of the CMS - and of course maintained as a SaaS solution.
We think it's time to react to these two facts, and we've renamed our Heartcore team to the Orchestration Team. We've also added more resources to the team - and to help us navigate this journey, we now invite you to join our new Orchestration Advisory Board.
How does such an Advisory Board work?
We meet virtually 4 times a year. Here, we'll raise topics related to our development of this new platform, to get your input and learn from your experiences through a very informal and open discussion.
We'll both discuss high-level business-related stuff and more nitty gritty nerdy details and would like to hear from you, no matter if you have hands-on code in your daily work life or not.
We don’t expect you to contribute with coding or the like - we only expect that we can rely on you showing up for the 4 meetings every year and bringing your opinions and knowledge to the table.
How do I apply?
You submit your application by tapping the button below. Here, you'll be asked to share a few details about yourself and why you would like to be part of this team. As always, we aim for a diverse group of people, so please apply, no matter what your gender, age, role or life situation in general is.
The application closes on January 5th, 2024 (at 23:59:59 CEST). Shortly thereafter, we'll invite for interviews and based on these, welcome 8-10 members of the Orchestration Advisory Board. Maybe you should be one of them?
What's in it for you?
You'll get the chance to influence a new product and strategic direction from Umbraco while you work closely with the Umbraco HQ and some of your experienced peers in the community. In addition, you'll get access to the standard Advisory Board Benefits.
The meetings are facilitated by the Head of Orchestration, Jordan McFarlane and Product Owner, Lasse Fredslund.
