Our team works with leading retail and e-commerce clients on complex projects, with deep expertise across multiple technical domains.

Role Overview

We're looking for a Shopify Developer to join our team and take ownership of complex, client-facing e-commerce builds and migrations. You'll be an owner on Shopify and other projects — both headless and native — working alongside our engineering and consulting teams to deliver best-in-class retail experiences.

• ResponsibilitiesArchitect and develop sophisticated Shopify storefronts, both headless (Hydrogen/custom) and native (Liquid/OS 2.0).

• Own technical delivery on client e-commerce projects from scoping through launch.

• Build custom Shopify apps, integrations, and theme components to meet complex business requirements.

• Collaborate closely with designers, PMs, and clients to translate requirements into polished, high-performance experiences.

• Follow and improve best practices around code quality, testing, development lifecycles, and quality assurance

• Integrate third-party platforms and APIs (ERP, PIM, OMS, loyalty, marketing tools, etc.).

• Contribute to the development of our internal products.

Requirements

• 2+ years of professional Shopify development experience, with a strong portfolio of complex builds.

• Deep expertise in Shopify's ecosystem: Liquid, Shopify CLI, Theme OS 2.0, Metafields, and the Storefront/Admin APIs.

• Public portfolio of Shopify projects

• Experience with headless Shopify implementations (Hydrogen, custom React/Next.js frontends).

• Proficiency in modern JavaScript/TypeScript, React, and related front-end tooling.

• Strong back-end chops — Node.js (or equivalent backend frameworks in other languages), REST/GraphQL APIs, and third-party integrations.

• Solid Git workflow experience (branching, PRs, code review).

• Experience with GenAI augmented engineering workflows (Claude, Cursor etc.).

• Excellent communication skills — you'll be interfacing with clients and cross-functional teams regularly.

Nice to Have

• Experience with Wix, Magento, or other e-commerce platforms.

• Familiarity with retail-specific integrations (ERP, PIM, OMS, loyalty platforms).

• Background in retail or e-commerce.

• Fluent in English and French

What We Offer

• Competitive compensation commensurate with experience.

• Opportunity to work on high-impact, technically challenging projects across a diverse retail client base.

• A collaborative team that values craft, autonomy, and getting things done.
