Collaboration with designers and communicating technical constraints to clients are also key aspects of the role.

    • 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

    • 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
