Join us as a Senior Frontend Engineer, Design Systems & Commerce
, at a pivotal moment in our journey. As one of our early hires, you'll shape how customers experience our connected e-bike brand online, from the moment they land on a campaign page to the moment they add a helmet, a rack, or a limited-run jersey to their cart. It's a greenfield opportunity at a fast-paced, venture-backed startup, where you'll own critical surfaces, make real decisions, and work shoulder-to-shoulder with a small, highly motivated team.

This role sits at the seam between engineering and creative. You'll be the person our design, brand, and UX partners come to when they want to put something beautiful in front of customers, and the person who makes sure it ships fast and works everywhere.

• Build more pages, faster. Own the frontend of our storefront, the product detail, collection and category pages, the gear and merchandise shop, and seasonal landing pages and continuously shorten the distance between a creative concept and a live page.

• Extend and steward our design system. Grow the component library, tokens, and page-composition patterns so they act as creative guardrails rather than a cage. Make the right thing the easy thing.

• Build for self-serve. Architect Shopify theme sections, blocks, metafields, and metaobjects so that creative and merchandising partners can compose and launch pages without an engineer in the loop for every change.

• Partner directly with creative and UX. Take a Figma file, a mood board, or a half-formed idea and drive it to a shipped page, asking the right questions, proposing alternatives, and making judgment calls on your own.

• Own merchandising surfaces. Category and collection pages, faceted filtering and sort, variant and colorway selection, swatch and color-contribution logic, cross-sell and bundle modules, badging, and inventory- and availability-aware states.

• Ship seasonal and concurrent campaigns. Support multiple campaigns running at once across product lines, with clean scheduling, staged launches, and graceful takedowns.

• Hold the quality bar high. Core Web Vitals, accessibility, responsive behavior, cross-browser correctness, and analytics instrumentation are part of the definition of done.

• Work cleanly with backend engineering. Define the data and API contracts you need, integrate with commerce, catalog, and account systems, and keep the boundary between presentation and business logic clean.

• Strong Shopify experience is a must, with deep, hands-on work with Liquid, Online Store 2.0 theme architecture (sections, blocks, metafields, metaobjects), the Storefront and Admin GraphQL APIs, and the theme development toolchain

• Experience building for multi-product-line brands and catalogs spanning hard goods, apparel, accessories, parts, and merch, understanding how differently each merchandises

• Proven execution across seasonal and multi-campaign launches, shipping drops and overlapping campaigns without the codebase turning into a graveyard of one-off templates

• Real experience building or materially extending a design system, including a component library and token system, and translating Figma libraries into durable, composable code

• Expert…
