Senior Ecommerce Development Engineer

We're looking for a Senior Ecommerce Development Engineer to help build and evolve a modern, headless ecommerce platform powered by Shopware 6.

You'll own features from initial requirements through development, testing, deployment, and production support.

• Troubleshoot issues across the frontend, backend, APIs, and cloud infrastructure.
• Write automated unit and integration tests while ensuring reliable, high-quality releases.
• Participate in production support, root cause analysis, and continuous platform improvements.
• Create clear technical documentation, including design decisions, deployment notes, and operational runbooks.
• Collaborate closely with Product, Engineering, and other stakeholders in an Agile environment.
• Leverage AI-assisted development tools to improve productivity while maintaining engineering best practices.

What We're Looking For

• Required Experience:
  
  7+ years of professional software engineering experience. 3+ years developing ecommerce or other highly transactional web applications. Experience working with Shopware, Magento (Adobe Commerce), or another extensible ecommerce platform. Proven experience owning projects from development through production support.

Comfortable working with Git-based workflows and Agile development tools such as Jira and Confluence.
• Preferred Experience:
  
  With Shopware 6 or Shopware Frontends. Experience with AWS-hosted applications and cloud monitoring tools. Experience working with large ecommerce catalogs and complex product hierarchies. Familiarity with CI/CD pipelines, observability, and release automation.

What Success Looks Like

Delivering reliable features with minimal production issues. Taking ownership of software quality through testing and production validation. Contributing to a stable, scalable ecommerce platform. Creating documentation that improves team knowledge and maintainability. Effectively using modern AI development tools to accelerate delivery while maintaining high engineering standards.
