Who actually does senior Drupal work in Seattle
Drupal is a small, specialized market in the Pacific Northwest. Most Seattle "full-service" shops list Drupal on a capabilities page but ship one or two projects a year. The teams below ship it as a core practice, not a favor to an existing client.

What "expert" should mean
Ask any Drupal shortlist:
- How many Drupal 7 to Drupal 10 or 11 migrations have you shipped in the last 18 months?
- Do you contribute modules back, and can I see your drupal.org profile?
- What is your approach to configuration management across dev, stage, and prod?
- How do you handle accessibility regression on editor-created content?
- What is your support SLA for a security release, and who is on call?
If the answers are vague or the drupal.org profile is thin, they are subcontracting the work.
