• Integrate with custom APIs when required, collaborating closely with backend engineers.
• Balance custom development with native Shopify functionality and third-party solutions.
• Champion accessibility standards (WCAG) across all frontend development.
• Participate in code reviews and contribute to engineering best practices.
• Build reusable, scalable components that support rapid product development.

What We're Looking For

• 3+ years' commercial experience developing on Shopify Plus.
• Strong expertise in Liquid, Shopify Admin API, and Storefront API.
• Experience using Shopify CLI, Git Hub, and CI/CD pipelines.
• Strong understanding of responsive design, performance optimisation, and accessibility.

You'll Also Bring

• A keen eye for pixel-perfect implementation and polished user interactions.
• A pragmatic approach to technology, choosing the simplest solution that delivers the best outcome.
• A commercial mindset with an understanding of how great digital experiences drive customer engagement and business performance.
• Strong collaboration and communication skills within cross-functional teams.

Why Join?

This is an opportunity to play a key role in shaping the frontend experience of a rapidly growing digital business. You'll work alongside talented product and engineering teams in an environment that values clean code, technical excellence, collaboration, and continuous improvement.
