## Description

**Shopify Plus Developer (Remote – US Time Zones)**

We are a specialized development agency working exclusively with high-growth eCommerce brands doing 8–9 figures in annual revenue. Our clients don't tolerate mediocrity — and neither do we.

We are hiring a Shopify Plus Developer who can own deliverables end to end, communicate fluently with clients and teams, and perform under real agency pressure. This is not an entry-level role. It is not for developers who need hand-holding, disappear after applying, or overstate their experience on a resume.

If you can't check every box below, please don't apply.  
  
**Top Requirement — AI-Assisted Development**

This is non-negotiable. We expect our developers to work smarter using modern AI tools.

-   Active, daily use of AI coding tools (Cursor, GitHub Copilot, Claude, or equivalent)
-   Able to demonstrate how AI tools accelerate your Shopify workflow — theme scaffolding, code review, debugging, and documentation
-   Uses AI to raise output quality and delivery speed — not as a crutch for gaps in fundamentals
-   Keeps up with the evolving AI tooling landscape and adopts new tools proactively

  
**Our Hiring Process Is Thorough — By Design**

We verify every candidate before extending any offer. This includes:

-   Identity verification — you will be required to confirm your identity with a valid government-issued ID at the offer stage
-   LinkedIn profile verification — your profile must be active, consistent with your CV, and reflect real tenure at the companies you list
-   Reference checks — we will contact at least one past client or employer directly. References must be reachable and specific about your work

**If any part of this makes you uncomfortable, this role is not for you. We do this to protect our clients, our team, and the candidates who represent themselves honestly.**

**What You Must Be Able to Do**

-   Build and customize Shopify Plus 2.0 themes from scratch — not just edit existing ones
-   Translate Figma designs into pixel-perfect, high-performing storefronts
-   Explain your technical decisions clearly to clients and project managers in plain English
-   Manage code via GitHub in a multi-developer agency environment
-   Work US time zones (EST–PST) with fast, consistent communication across Slack, Gmail, and ClickUp

**Core Technical Responsibilities**

-   Code Shopify Plus 2.0 Liquid themes from scratch and using the Dawn base theme
-   Translate Figma designs into pixel-perfect Shopify Plus templates
-   Build and optimize landing pages from Figma files and existing templates
-   Optimize site speed against Google Core Web Vitals benchmarks
-   Configure GA4, Google Ads tracking, and GTM within Shopify and Shopify Checkout
-   Configure Shopify Plus admin settings: discounts, shipping rules, scripts, and functions
-   Customize Shopify Plus Checkout using Checkout Extensibility and Functions
-   Build custom collection filters using Tags, Metafields, and Metaobjects
-   Implement and configure advanced Shopify apps (ReBuy, Yotpo, SYWM, etc.)
-   Build SEO-optimized page templates with correct heading structure, canonical tags, and noindex logic
-   Implement ADA-compliant fixes and templates based on PM direction
-   Stay current on Shopify Plus releases: Checkout Extensibility, Functions, Markets

**This Role Is Not For You If:**

-   **You don't actively use AI coding tools in your daily workflow**
-   **You haven't built a Shopify Plus 2.0 theme from the ground up**
-   **You apply to roles without reading the full description**
-   **You've accepted interview invitations and then disappeared**
-   **You struggle to explain technical work to non-technical stakeholders in English**
-   **You inflate your resume and figure it'll sort itself out in the interview**
-   **You need someone to define every task before you can start**

## Requirements

**Experience**

-   3+ years of Shopify Plus development for DTC brands (brands in the $10M–$50M revenue range strongly preferred)
-   Proven experience building and owning Shopify Plus 2.0 themes — not just theme edits
-   GitHub-based theme version control in an agency setting
-   Prior experience at a Shopify-focused development agency

**Communication**

-   Strong written and spoken English — this will be tested, not just listed
-   Able to explain code and technical decisions to non-developers clearly and concisely

-   Comfortable presenting work on live client calls without a script

**Availability**
