• Build and maintain Shopify storefronts and themes, with a focus on performance, responsiveness, and clean Liquid
• Develop embedded Shopify apps that run inside the Shopify admin, including OAuth install flows, session token authentication, and admin interfaces
• Build theme app extensions and ship them through Shopify CLI without disrupting the merchant's theme
• Work with Shopify Admin, Storefront, and Cart APIs, along with webhooks and App Proxy
• Model structured content and configuration using metaobjects and metafields
• Design and maintain backend services and database schemas that support app functionality
• Integrate with third-party systems and APIs such as ERPs, CRMs, 3PLs, and support platforms, with sensible handling of failures, retries, and timeouts
• Handle API credentials and sensitive data securely, including encryption at rest and keeping secrets out of logs and user interfaces
• Translate designs from the design team into working, accessible interfaces
• Write unit and integration tests as part of normal delivery
• Troubleshoot and debug across the stack, from storefront rendering through to backend integration failures
• Take part in code review and contribute to CI/CD pipelines

• Experience with theme app extensions and Shopify CLI
• Working knowledge of metaobjects and metafields as a structured content layer
• Shopify webhooks: subscription, verification, and reliable processing
• Solid frontend fundamentals: HTML, CSS, JavaScript, and React

• Node.js for backend development. Remix is preferred; strong Next.js or equivalent experience is considered
• PostgreSQL: schema design, migrations, and an ORM such as Prisma or Drizzle
• Third-party API integration with proper error handling, retries, and validation
• Git and a pull request based workflow, with CI/CD exposure
• Shopify Plus experience
• Clear communication and the ability to work independently across multiple projects
• Experience with multi-store or multi-tenant Shopify apps and the Shopify Plus organization model
• App Proxy with signature verification
• Serverless deployment on Vercel or similar, including scheduled jobs and preview environments
• Checkout extensibility and Shopify Functions
• Experience with major third-party apps such as Klaviyo, Yotpo, Shogun, and Rebuy
