To help Mozilla create compelling and innovative web products.
- Provide technical project management for web products.
- Create world-class user-facing websites, applications, and web-based campaigns.
- Helping other teams achieve their web-related goals as internal consultants and technical experts.
- Foster communication between product owners and all technical teams involved.
- Document web development processes and best practices for internal and external teams.
- Removing blockers and keeping momentum in projects.
- Collaborate with the greater Web Development community.
The following are some of the properties and application that we manage:
- Mozilla.org

- Mozilla Reps
- Mozilla Blogs
- Firefox Affiliates

- Mozilla Basket (Website to newsletter integration)
- SmartSheet (Timeline management)
- Google Analytics (Web analytics)
- Optimizely (A/B testing)
Why
Why do we need a team focused on building websites?
- Ensure consistency, standardization, and quality of our websites.
- Manage scope and timeline to keep projects on track and lean.
- Improve efficiency in all aspects of the project life cycle.
- Prioritizing tasks and projects based on goals that help "move the needle".
- Making "pretty" designs a web reality.
- Baking continuous improvement into everything we do.
Who
Our technical project managers (TPM) are official called Web Product Engineers (WPE) and instead of engineering code, they engineer and manage the entire life cycle of a technical web project. They are project managers that have experience in web development, project management, people management, and helping keep project teams happy and productive.
We have both front-end and back-end engineers that develop and implement the code that runs the web properties that we manage. We also now have a full-time Information Architecture and UX designer on the team that will help ensure that what we do on the web is focused on the user and always improving.
A few people in our team are identified as having special expertise about a topic that we deal with, such as testing or localization. We call these people Champions, and you can read more information and see a list of the current champions on the Champions page.
