Magento Two Developer Jobs in Texas (NOW HIRING)

ServerMonkey is looking for a strategic and technical leader to own our e-commerce technology stack. We are not just an online store; we are a complex Configure-to-Order (CTO) platform running on a highly customized Magento 2 environment. This role is fully in the office in Houston, TX.

You will lead the restructuring of our web team, bridging the gap between technical engineering, product data, and digital marketing. You'll stabilize the platform, optimize our complex server configurator for speed and UX, and build a scalable architecture that drives revenue growth.

Key Responsibilities

1. Technical Strategy & Platform Ownership

• The Configurator: Take full ownership of our custom server configuration tool. Lead initiatives to refactor legacy code, improve load times and enhance mobile usability

• The Roadmap: Manage the end-to-end lifecycle of our Magento 2 Commerce platform, balance hands-on development with high-level strategy

• Performance & Security: Maintain Core Web Vitals, ensure PCI compliance and manage regular security patching and data protection standards

• Standardization: Establish development standards, documentation and deployment processes to eliminate breaking changes in production

2. Team Leadership & Restructuring

• Build the "Triad": Restructure the department into three functional pods

a. Platform Pod: Internal and Agency Backend/Frontend developers

b. Data Pod: Product specialists managing complex compatibility rules

c. Growth Pod: Technical SEO and UX specialists

• Agency Management: Act as the primary stakeholder for external agencies, holding them accountable for code quality, budgets, and deadlines

• Mentorship: Hire, lead, and mentor technical talent to foster a forward-looking, solution-oriented culture

3. Business & Marketing Alignment

• Technical SEO: Partner with marketing to solve faceted navigation issues, canonical tagging, and schema markup

• UX Excellence: Translate complex hardware compatibility rules into a simple, guided buying experience

• Integrations: Ensure data integrity between Magento, GA4, and our ERP (NetSuite) / Inventory systems

Qualifications

• Deep Magento 2 Knowledge: You must understand the "why" behind performance bottlenecks. Is it a database deadlock, poor Varnish caching, or inefficient request flows? You need the technical authority to overrule agencies who claim the platform can't run faster. Deep understanding of Magento 2 architecture (Cloud/On-prem), PHP 7/8, MySQL, and caching strategies (Varnish/Redis/Elasticsearch)

• Complex Logic Experience: Our configurator relies on deep dependencies. You should have experience with Rules Engines, ERP integrations or CPQ (configure, price, quote) tools

• DevOps Mindset: You care about CI/CD pipelines, automated testing, and server-side performance (New Relic, Blackfire) to ensure sub-2-second load times

• Experience: 7+ years in Web Development/E-commerce, with 3+ years in a technical leadership role

• The "Complex Product" Factor: Proven experience managing sites with massive catalogs or configurable products (50+ options) is critical

• Stack Proficiency: Familiarity with JavaScript (Knockout.js/React), REST APIs, Linux, and AWS/Azure infrastructure

Bonus Points

• Industry Knowledge: Experience in IT Hardware, Servers, or Data Center industries

• Certifications: Adobe Certified Expert - Magento Commerce

• Systems: Previous experience with NetSuite or similar ERP migrations

• Modern Frontend: Experience with PWA Studio or Vue Storefront
