ECM Developer

Motion Recruitment
San Diego, CA Contractor
POSTED ON 4/18/2026
AVAILABLE BEFORE 5/23/2026
Join a forward-thinking organization as an Enterprise Content Management (ECM) Developer in a full-time role focused on designing, developing, and maintaining ECM solutions that streamline document management, workflow automation, and content lifecycle processes. You'll work with industry-leading ECM platforms such as OpenText, Microsoft SharePoint, IBM FileNet, or Hyland OnBase, bringing together technical development skills and enterprise systems integration expertise to deliver scalable, compliant content management solutions.

This is a strong opportunity for an experienced ECM Developer to work across the full spectrum of enterprise content management — from document capture and indexing to workflow automation and records governance. Rather than being confined to a single platform, you'll have the breadth to work across multiple ECM ecosystems and integration touchpoints, leveraging REST/SOAP APIs, scripting languages, and database systems to connect content solutions with broader enterprise infrastructure. The role carries real ownership, from architecting solutions and automating workflows to ensuring compliance with records management and information governance standards. For a developer who enjoys working at the intersection of technical depth and business process improvement, this role offers meaningful variety and impact across a complex content environment.

Required Skills & Experience

  • Bachelor's degree in Computer Science, Information Systems, or related field
  • 5 years of experience in ECM development and administration
  • Proficiency in one or more ECM platforms including OpenText, SharePoint, IBM FileNet, or Hyland OnBase
  • Strong knowledge of web technologies including HTML, CSS, and JavaScript
  • Experience with REST and SOAP APIs and scripting languages such as PowerShell and Python
  • Experience with document capture, indexing, and workflow automation
  • Familiarity with database systems including SQL Server and Oracle and proficiency in query languages
  • Understanding of records management, compliance, and information governance
  • Strong analytical and critical thinking skills
  • Excellent communication and collaboration abilities
  • Ability to manage multiple priorities in a fast-paced environment
  • Detail-oriented with a strong focus on quality and user experience

Desired Skills & Experience

  • ECM platform certifications such as OpenText Certified Developer or Microsoft 365 Certified
  • Experience with cloud-based ECM solutions including SharePoint Online or OpenText Cloud
  • Knowledge of Agile/Scrum methodologies
  • Experience with content migration tools and strategies
