Job description

Overview

Anatta is a leading Shopify Plus partner building enterprise-grade commerce ecosystems for ambitious brands. We don't just implement—we architect solutions that solve real business problems. Our clients choose us when complexity demands expertise, and when the stakes are too high for generic execution.
We're looking for an expert Middleware Developer to act as the technical bridge between the  Shopify Plus ecommerce ecosystem and backend enterprise services. In this role, you will design, build, and maintain the integration layer that ensures seamless data synchronization across different business systems. As a key member of our engineering team, you'll ensure our solutions are performant, reliable, and perfectly aligned with our clients' business needs.

You will be responsible for extracting, transforming, and loading (ETL) complex datasets, ensuring that data flowing between Shopify and internal systems (ERP, CRM, WMS, POS) is accurate, timely, and formatted correctly.

Responsibilities
  • Integration Architecture: Design and develop scalable middleware solutions to connect Shopify with external enterprise systems (e.g., SAP, Oracle, NetSuite, Salesforce).
  • Middleware Experience: Must have hands-on experience with at least one of the following SaaS technologies: Mulesoft, Celigo, Workato, N8N, Pipe17, etc.
  • Data Transformation: Write robust code to ingest data from various sources, apply complex business logic to transform data formats (e.g., converting Shopify JSON payloads to SOAP/XML for legacy ERPs), and deliver it to the target system.

  • Workflow Automation: Automate data flows for critical business processes such as Order-to-Cash, Inventory Synchronization, and Shipment Updates.

  • Celigo experience is a must.
  • Shopify Expertise: Deep understanding of the Shopify API ecosystem. You must know the nuances of Shopify’s rate limiting, bulk operations, webhooks, and the transition between REST and GraphQL endpoints.
  • Data Handling: Proven ability to read, parse, and transform data structures. Mastery of JSON, XML, CSV, and SQL is essential.
  • Programming Languages: Strong proficiency in server-side languages such as Node.js or Laravel/PHP.
  • Enterprise Protocols: Experience working with enterprise data exchange protocols, including REST, SOAP, FTP/SFTP, and EDI.
  • Version Control: Proficiency with Git and CI/CD pipelines.
  • Integrations: Proven integrations with payment gateways, tax engines, loyalty/fraud platforms, ERP, Inventory, OMS.
  • Education: Degree or certification in software development.
  • Communication: Fluent writing and speaking in English.
  • Organization: Good organizational and documentation skills with a detail-oriented mindset.
Preferred Skills & Technologies
  • Experience with cloud functions (AWS Lambda, Azure Functions, or Google Cloud Functions) for serverless data processing.
  • Knowledge of queueing systems (RabbitMQ, Kafka, AWS SQS) to manage high-volume data spikes during flash sales.
  • Experience integrating with ERP’s, PIM’s, CDP’s, OMS’s, etc.
  • Knowledge of Latest Admin Direct API’s.
  • Experience in iPaaS and event-driven architectures.
