About the role

  • Own the technical side of our Shopify store — theme development, customization, and ongoing optimization
  • Build and customize Shopify apps/plugins using Liquid, HTML, CSS, and JavaScript
  • Implement designs from Figma into clean, responsive Shopify pages — and flag when the design doesn't work for conversion
  • Build and maintain API integrations between Shopify and our tool stack (Billbee, Klaviyo, and more) — clean interface programming is key
  • Work with AI coding tools to ship faster — we expect you to use tools like Cursor, Copilot, Claude, or similar
  • Collaborate with our internal team: Tulon (Senior IT Specialist), Jonas (CMO), and directly with the CEO
  • Proactively identify and fix UX issues, page speed problems, and conversion bottlenecks
  • Manage Shopify app stack — evaluate, install, configure, and troubleshoot apps

Requirements

  • Shopify expertise — deep experience with Liquid templating, theme development, and the Shopify ecosystem. You've built or heavily customized stores before. Show us.
  • Portfolio required — send us links to Shopify stores or websites you've worked on. This is non-negotiable. We want to see your actual work.
  • Figma proficiency — you work directly from Figma files and can translate designs into code. This is a must, not a nice-to-have.
  • Frontend skills — strong HTML, CSS, JavaScript. You write clean, maintainable code.
  • Plugin/app development — ability to build custom Shopify apps or extend existing ones. Bonus if you've published apps on the Shopify App Store.
  • AI-assisted development — you actively use AI coding tools in your workflow. We don't want someone who's 'open to trying AI' — we want someone who already codes with it daily.
  • UI/UX knowledge — you understand user flows, information hierarchy, and how design decisions impact conversion.
  • E-commerce mindset — you've worked on high-performance, high-converting Shopify stores. You understand product page best practices, checkout optimization, page speed, and mobile-first design.
  • Eye for design — you notice when spacing is off, when a CTA doesn't pop, when a page feels cluttered. This is rare in developers and it's exactly what we're looking for.
  • Nice to have: German language skills (our store and customer base are German-speaking)
  • Experience with e-commerce tools (Billbee, Klaviyo, or similar)
  • Knowledge of SEO best practices for Shopify
  • Experience with headless commerce or Shopify Hydrogen
  • Previous work with D2C/DTC brands
Benefits
  • Part-time role — approximately 20 hours/week, flexible scheduling
  • €15–30/hour — depending on experience and skill level
  • 100% remote — work from anywhere
  • Direct collaboration — you'll work directly with the CEO and senior team, not through layers of management
  • Real ownership — this isn't agency work where you get a brief and execute. You'll own the Shopify store technically and have a voice in how it evolves.
  • AI-forward environment — we use AI tools across the company and encourage experimentation
  • Ergonomic perks — free standing desk, chair, and accessories from our product line
