Junior Shopify Developer Jobs in Seattle, WA (NOW HIRING)

Location: On Site Seattle
Department: Engineering

Pipe17 connects commerce businesses' selling channels, fulfillment providers, and back-office systems into one automated, reliable flow. We're solving the "post-order chaos" that happens when e-commerce platforms, ERPs, and 3PLs don't talk to each other.

Our AI-native cloud platform orchestrates orders, inventory, and shipments between systems like Shopify, Amazon, NetSuite, and ShipStation - powered by modern APIs, event-driven microservices, and intuitive web dashboards.

We're growing fast, and we're looking for a Junior System Engineer who is passionate about building tools, integrating APIs, and leveraging modern AI tooling to improve developer and business productivity. 

We're looking for someone who's AI-curious and eager to learn - if you're excited by new tools and want a place to grow your skills while shipping real impact, you'll thrive here.

Interview Note: You'll be screen sharing, using AI tool of your choice, and then you'll be programming together as a part of the process!

We can provide you an Anthropic API key to use during the interview if you don't want to use your own. This can be used for Claude Code, Cursor, and other tools.

As a Junior System Engineer, you will:

• Design, build, and maintain internal tools and automation scripts using JavaScript / TypeScript.
• Develop lightweight APIs, CLI tools, and web utilities to enhance developer productivity and system reliability.
• Implement and manage API integrations between internal systems and external services (e.g., GitHub, Jira, HubSpot, NetSuite, or internal APIs).
• Experiment with and build AI-powered developer tools and automations using ChatGPT, Claude Code, and other LLM APIs.
• Collaborate with infrastructure and product engineering teams to streamline developer workflows, deployments, and monitoring.
• Troubleshoot system and integration issues, ensuring smooth operation across environments.
• Write clear documentation and onboard teammates to the tools you create.
• Participate in design reviews, daily stand-ups, and sprint planning with cross-functional teams.
• Contribute to unit and integration testing for tools and APIs.

Hands-on experience with:

• Node.js / TypeScript for automation, APIs, and internal developer tooling.
• REST / GraphQL APIs for integrations and data synchronization.
• AI tooling and automation using ChatGPT, Claude, and other LLM-based systems.
• Infrastructure scripting and configuration (AWS, Terraform, Docker).
• Authentication and authorization flows (OAuth2, API keys, JWT).
• CI/CD automation with GitHub Actions or similar pipelines.
• Cloud deployments (AWS Lambda, ECS, or similar containerized services).
• Observability and monitoring (CloudWatch, Datadog, Grafana).
• Secure coding and SOC 2-aligned development practices.

• 0-2 years of experience in software or system engineering.
• Fluency in JavaScript / TypeScript.
• Experience building tools or automation scripts for personal or team use.
• Experience integrating APIs (REST, GraphQL, or webhooks).
• Familiarity with AI developer tools such as ChatGPT, Claude Code, GitHub Copilot, or Replit Ghostwriter.
• Familiarity with Git, CI/CD pipelines, and cloud platforms (AWS or similar).
• Curiosity about automation, integration, and AI-driven developer productivity.
• Strong problem-solving and communication skills.

• Experience with SQL / NoSQL databases.
• Familiarity with containerization (Docker) or serverless platforms.
• Exposure to scripting in Python or Bash.
• Understanding of cloud cost optimization and monitoring tools.
• Interest in e-commerce or logistics tech.

Pipe17 powers the flow of customer orders and shipments for some of the fastest-growing and best-known brands in e-commerce. As part of the engineering team, you'll build the tools and systems that make our developers faster, our platform more resilient, and our customers happier.

You'll learn how scalable SaaS infrastructure and integration systems operate in production, and how AI-assisted automation can dramatically improve developer and business productivity.

• Competitive entry-level salary and benefits.
• Mentorship from senior engineers and architects.
• Exposure to real production SaaS environments.
• Flexible, remote-friendly culture.
• Clear path to mid-level roles in Systems, DevOps, or AI + Integrations Engineering.
  

We value clarity, curiosity, and ownership. You'll join a small, agile engineering team where your work ships weekly and directly impacts our platform and internal operations. At Pipe17, we encourage engineers who ask why, challenge assumptions, and love to automate solutions to messy problems.
