Job Description:

The State of Iowa's Office of the Chief Information Officer (OCIO) digital service team is looking for a Web Content Developer/Designer to assist with a website redevelopment project which includes an artificial intelligence based chatbot.

OCIO and the Department of Management are seeking a Web Content Developer/Designer to support approximately 80 Drupal websites migrating to a new code base and design. The Content Architect will be expected to work with agency content managers with Google Analytics data and data from other SEO tools to make recommendations about retiring content, content design, and navigation. The Content Architect will handle requests from across the enterprise to publish new and updated website content and verify, maintain, and update as necessary website calendar entries and notifications.

The migration to the new brand has been structured into five phases with this Scope of Work covering execution of Phases One through Three for 76 agency Drupal websites including the integration of Iowa Department of Public Health .NET website.

The new Iowa brand design is intended to be a collaborative process incorporating the best design features from recent State website development efforts and other State portals based on Drupal (e.g., Arizona, Georgia, Massachusetts, and North Carolina).

• Ability to write content for chat
• Ability to produce Google Analytics Reports
• Ability to setup Google Tag Manager
• Ability to work in Google Search Console to submit sitemaps and remove pages from indexing where 404 errors occur.

• Experience with Google Tag Manager
• Experience with web Content Management Systems (CMS)
• Experience with Google Programmable Search
• Demonstrated experience with managing client expectations
