Riverside is the all-in-one studio-quality recording platform trusted by Spotify, The New York Times, NBC, CNN, and iHeartMedia. We're hiring a Web Developer to own our marketing website end to end - not just the code, but the people, process, and roadmap behind it.
A note on the role: this is a hybrid developer-lead position. Roughly 70% of your time goes to coordination, prioritization, and managing external developers; about 30% is hands-on building. If you love shipping web projects through other people as much as writing code yourself, this is for you.
What you'll do:
Own the website work pipeline
- Act as the single point of intake for website requests from teams across the company (marketing, product, brand, and more)
- Scope, classify, and prioritize incoming tasks - decide what to build yourself, what to delegate, and what to push back on
- Keep stakeholders informed on status, timelines, and trade-offs
Manage our external development team
- Lead a team of 2-3 freelance web developers (external, not employees)
- Run sprints: plan, assign, and distribute work, review deliverables, and hold quality and deadlines
- Own vendor relationships, capacity planning, and QA across everything they ship
Lead the website rebuild
- Lead the upcoming ground-up rebuild of riverside.com on Webflow - structure, CMS architecture, and migration
- Coordinate design, content, SEO, and dev workstreams; own the timeline and keep the project on schedule
- Make it fast, scalable, and easy to maintain
Stay hands-on
- Build responsive, pixel-perfect pages from Figma designs
- Design and maintain Webflow CMS structures that scale with our content roadmap
- Own site performance, Core Web Vitals, SEO, CRO, and accessibility best practices
- Contribute to platform and architecture decisions as the stack evolves
Requirements- 4+ years building production commercial websites
- Deep hands-on Webflow experience - complex builds, CMS architecture, and integrations (experience with additional CMS platforms is a plus)
- Strong HTML, CSS, and JavaScript fundamentals
- Proven ability to run multiple projects in parallel and lead them to completion on deadline
- Excellent stakeholder communication - you can take a vague request from any team, turn it into a clear task, and manage expectations along the way
- Highly organized and process-driven: boards, sprints, and priorities stay in order because you keep them that way
- Strong ownership and independence - you take full responsibility for the site without needing close guidance
- Hands-on experience with analytics and tagging tools (Segment, GA4, GTM)
- Sharp eye for visual detail, motion, and responsive design
Nice to have:
- Experience managing freelance developers, agencies, or external vendors - a significant advantage
- Experience migrating or rebuilding sites at scale
- Animation libraries (GSAP, Lottie)
- A/B testing tools (VWO, Optimizely, Convert)
- Technical SEO and structured data
- WordPress/PHP experience
The role reports to the Head of Marketing Operations Manager, within the Growth Marketing team.
Skills Required
- 4+ years building production commercial sites
- Hands-on experience with at least two CMS platforms
- Strong HTML, CSS, and JavaScript fundamentals
- Comfort with PHP or willingness to ramp on it for WordPress work
- Solid grasp of cross-browser and cross-device behavior
- Hands-on experience with analytics and tagging tools
- Ability to juggle multiple projects and lead them to completion
- Experience managing external agencies or freelance developers
