CMS & DAM Engineer

Solvd Inc. is a rapidly growing AI-native consulting and technology services firm delivering enterprise transformation across cloud, data, software engineering, and artificial intelligence. We work with industry-leading organizations to design, build, and operationalize technology solutions that drive measurable business outcomes. Following the acquisition of Tooploox, a premier AI and product development company, Solvd now offers true end-to-end delivery—from strategic advisory and solution design to custom AI development and enterprise-scale implementation. Our capability centers combine deep technical expertise, proven delivery methodologies, and sector-specific knowledge to address complex business challenges quickly and effectively. We are looking for a CMS & DAM Engineer to join a greenfield digital news platform build for a major international news brand. There is no legacy system, no migration burden — this is a new platform built from scratch, video-first and breaking-news-first, designed to sustain extreme traffic during major events and support complete newsroom workflows from draft to publish. You'll own the CMS configuration and digital asset management layer end-to-end — from content models and editorial workflows through DAM taxonomy, rights management, and integrations with video, search, and distribution services. This is a full-lifecycle engagement: discovery, build, launch, and multi-year support. WHAT YOU'LL DO CMS Configuration & Development • Configure and develop the selected CMS platform — AEM or Amplience. • Implement content models, templates, components, and editorial configurations. • Configure authoring, approval, scheduling, and publishing workflows to support full newsroom operations. • Support breaking-news and major-event editorial capabilities, including homepage mode-switching under high traffic. • Implement taxonomy and structured-content models. • Configure permissions and newsroom roles. • Implement preview and publishing capabilities. • Develop CMS extensions where native functionality does not meet requirements. • Integrate CMS with DAM, search, video, and downstream distribution services. • Support testing, editorial training, and production stabilization. Digital Asset Management • Own the design and configuration of digital asset management workflows end-to-end. • Define image and video metadata structures, taxonomy, credits, captions, source, and rights metadata. • Design embargo, licence, and expiration management workflows. • Establish image rendition, crop, and focal-point workflows. • Define duplicate and near-duplicate asset handling approaches. • Design asset usage and reference tracking. • Establish replacement, restriction, and takedown workflows. • Integrate DAM with CMS, video pipeline, and distribution services. • Support asset migration, editorial training, and operational governance. BASIC QUALIFICATIONS • Hands-on experience configuring and developing on AEM or Amplience in a production environment. • Experience implementing content models, editorial workflows, and publishing pipelines for a content-heavy platform. • Strong understanding of DAM concepts — metadata, taxonomy, rights management, renditions, and asset lifecycle. • Experience integrating CMS and DAM systems with third-party services — video platforms, search, CDN, or distribution APIs. • Ability to configure permissions and role-based access for multi-user editorial teams. • Experience working on structured, phased delivery programmes with clear milestones and launch targets. • Strong communication skills — able to work with editorial, product, and engineering stakeholders. PREFERRED QUALIFICATIONS • Experience delivering CMS/DAM solutions for news, media, or publishing organizations. • Familiarity with breaking-news editorial workflows and high-traffic event scenarios. • Experience with video asset management and broadcast clip ingestion pipelines. • Knowledge of GDPR compliance requirements as they apply to content and media platforms. • Experience with accessibility standards for content-heavy web platforms. • Familiarity with AI-assisted development tooling. • Experience supporting editorial training and operational handover programmes. When you join Solvd, you'll… • Shape real-world AI-driven projects across key industries, working with clients from startup innovation to enterprise transformation. • Be part of a global team with equal opportunities for collaboration across continents and cultures. • Thrive in an inclusive environment that prioritizes continuous learning, innovation, and ethical AI standards.
