    • Define frontend standards, patterns, and best practices for headless Shopify
    • Make architectural decisions around performance, scalability, and maintainability
    • Review code and mentor developers through PRs, pairing, and technical guidance
    • Lead sprint planning and execution: scope work, estimate effort, and ensure on-time delivery
  • Development 
    • Build and maintain Hydrogen storefronts using React, TypeScript, and Vite
    • Implement Shopify Storefront API and Admin API integrations
    • Implement Shopify Storefront API integrations in Hydrogen and partner with backend/middleware services that integrate with the Shopify Admin API and webhooks
    • Design, build, and deploy custom Shopify Functions (discounts, cart/checkout validations, delivery customization), including local testing and rollout strategies
    • Develop custom components, routes, and server-side logic
    • Optimize storefront performance (LCP, CLS, TTFB, caching, streaming SSR)
    • Integrate third-party services (CMS, search, analytics, personalization, payments)
  • Collaboration 
    • Partner with UX/UI designers to translate designs into performant UI
    • Work with backend, marketing, and product teams on roadmap planning
    • Provide technical input during discovery and estimation phases
    • Support releases, QA, and production troubleshooting
 
What We'd Love to See
  • Shopify & Headless Experience 
    • 5+ years of professional frontend or full-stack development experience
    • 2+ years of Shopify development experience
    • Hands-on experience with Shopify Hydrogen in production
    • Strong understanding of headless commerce architectures
    • Experience with Shopify Storefront API, metafields, and custom data models, plus secure Admin API + webhook integrations via backend/middleware services
 
  • Frontend & Platform Skills 
      • Expert knowledge of React and TypeScript
      • Strong experience with SSR, streaming, and modern web performance
      • Familiarity with Oxygen runtime and edge deployment concepts
      • Solid understanding of GraphQL
      • Experience with modern tooling (Vite, ESLint, Prettier, CI/CD)
 
  • Leadership & Communication 
        • Experience leading or mentoring other developers
        • Ability to clearly explain technical concepts to non-technical stakeholders
        • Strong ownership mindset and attention to detail

    What Success Looks Like
    • A fast, stable, and maintainable Hydrogen storefront in production
    • Clear architectural direction and coding standards adopted by the team
    • Improved performance metrics and conversion rates
    • Developers supported and upskilled through strong technical leadership
