You’ll architect custom apps, integrate with third-party systems, deploy supporting microservices to serverless environments, and maintain the health of everything in production. We need someone who understands Shopify deeply and can build the custom tooling and integrations that take a Shopify Plus store beyond out-of-the-box capabilities.Why Part-Time Works for This RoleProject-based workflow â€” Work comes in sprints and defined projects rather than constant full-time demandAsync-first culture â€” We communicate primarily through documentation and async tools, so you can work when it suits youFlexibility â€” Set your own hours within reason; we care about output, not presencePotential to grow â€” Hours may increase based on project needs and mutual fitThis is ideal for senior developers who want flexibility—whether you’re freelancing, have other commitments, or simply prefer part-time work.What You’ll DoShopify Plus DevelopmentTheme Development & CustomizationBuild and customize Shopify themes using Liquid, HTML, CSS, and JavaScriptDevelop responsive, performant, and conversion-optimized storefrontsImplement complex Liquid logic for dynamic content, product filtering, and personalizationCreate and maintain theme sections, blocks, and settings schema for merchant flexibilityOptimize theme performance (load times, Core Web Vitals, mobile experience)Custom App DevelopmentDesign and build Shopify Custom Apps (both public and private/custom apps)Develop apps using Shopify’s modern stack: Shopify CLI, Remix, Polaris, and App BridgeImplement OAuth authentication flows and Shopify session managementBuild admin interfaces using Polaris design system for consistent merchant UXCreate embedded apps that integrate seamlessly into the Shopify AdminShopify Plus FeaturesLeverage Shopify Plus exclusive features: Shopify Functions, Checkout Extensibility, B2B capabilitiesBuild custom Shopify Scripts for dynamic pricing, discounts, and shipping rulesImplement Checkout UI Extensions for customized checkout experiencesConfigure and customize Shopify Flow automationsWork with Shopify Markets for international commerceUtilize Launchpad for scheduled sales and product releasesAPI & IntegrationsDeep expertise with Shopify Admin API (REST and GraphQL)Build customer-facing experiences with Storefront APIImplement Shopify Webhooks for real-time event handlingIntegrate with third-party systems: ERPs, PIMs, CRMs, fulfillment providers, marketing platformsBuild and maintain Shopify Metafields and Metaobjects for extended data modelsWork with Shopify Payments, payment gateways, and subscription billingBackend Development & InfrastructureServerless ArchitectureBuild and deploy backend services (Node.js/TypeScript) to serverless environmentsWork with AWS Lambda, Vercel, Netlify Functions, or Cloudflare WorkersDesign event-driven architectures for webhook processing and async operationsImplement API endpoints that support Shopify apps and custom integrationsManage databases that extend Shopify’s data model (PostgreSQL, MongoDB, DynamoDB)CI/CD & DevOpsConfigure and maintain CI/CD pipelines (GitHub Actions, GitLab CI)Work with Serverless Framework (serverless.com) or equivalent IaC toolsManage deployment workflows for both Shopify themes and custom appsImplement automated testing (unit, integration, e2e) in deployment pipelinesHandle environment management, secrets, and configuration across staging/productionMonitoring & ReliabilitySet up application monitoring using Sentry for error trackingConfigure Datadog dashboards and alerts for app health and performanceMonitor Shopify webhook delivery and retry failed eventsTrack API rate limits and optimize for Shopify’s API constraintsInvestigate and resolve production issues rapidlyImplement logging strategies for debugging across distributed systemsMaintenance & OperationsProactively identify and resolve technical debt in themes and appsKeep dependencies updated and address security vulnerabilitiesMonitor Shopify platform changes and adapt to new APIs/deprecationsOptimize storefront performance and conversion metricsDocument systems, integrations, and operational proceduresSupport the team with technical guidance on Shopify capabilities and limitationsWhat We’re Looking For in a CandidateShopify Depth, Not Just BreadthYou’ve done more than install apps and make minor theme tweaks. You understand Shopify’s architecture deeply—why things work the way they do, what the platform’s limitations are, and how to build around them. You can evaluate when to use a third-party app versus building custom.Full-Stack OwnershipYou’re comfortable across the entire stack. You can build a polished Liquid theme, develop a custom app with Polaris UI, deploy the backend to Lambda, and set up monitoring in Datadog. You don’t throw code over the wall—you own it through deployment and production.Production MindsetYou think about what happens after code ships. You care about error rates, response times, and user experience in production. When something breaks, you want to know why and prevent it from happening again.Pragmatic Problem SolverShopify has constraints. Every platform does. You can work within them creatively, evaluate trade-offs, and make decisions that balance ideal solutions with practical realities. You know when to build custom and when to use existing solutions.Clear CommunicatorYou can explain technical concepts to non-technical stakeholders. You document your integrations. You ask clarifying questions before building something that doesn’t meet the need.Continuous LearnerShopify evolves constantly—new APIs, deprecations, features. You stay current with platform changes and can adapt your approach as the ecosystem shifts. You’re excited about Checkout Extensibility, Functions, and where the platform is heading.Reliable & ResponsivePart-time doesn’t mean absent. You respond to messages within a reasonable timeframe, meet your commitments, and communicate proactively when priorities shift or blockers arise.We’re committed to building a diverse and inclusive team. We encourage applications from candidates of all backgrounds and experiences.RequirementsShopify ExpertiseShopify Plus Platform (Required)2+ years of hands-on Shopify development experienceDeep
