About the role

Key responsibilities & impact

Build and maintain fully custom Shopify Hydrogen storefronts using React Router, implementing complex commerce features and headless integrations
Implement responsive UIs using HTML, CSS, and modern React; own frontend performance across all storefronts
Manage migrations from legacy frontends (one Shopify Liquid, two Django-based) to Hydrogen with data integrity and minimal business disruption
Debug and optimize the full data flow from React components through GraphQL to backend systems
Extend and maintain Python/Django code powering GraphQL API integrations between Shopify and our internal PIM/ERP/CRM monolith
Build custom middleware and integrations when "standard" Shopify features don't work with our headless stack (e.g., custom feed generators for syndication, Algolia reindexing logic)
Modify data exchange layers and API endpoints as business requirements evolve
Navigate and enhance monolithic Django codebase without breaking existing functionality
Manage software-defined infrastructure for Hydrogen deployments—build CI/CD pipelines, configure environments, and automate releases to Oxygen or similar edge platforms
Own the deployment toolchain from local development through production
Troubleshoot deployment and infrastructure issues across the stack
Translate ambiguous business requests ("we need Pinterest syndication," "can we change how search works?") into technical approaches—assessing whether this is a quick tweak, custom integration, or architectural discussion
Identify when requirements touch core architecture, involve significant data migration, or have business implications that need CTO input; escalate strategically rather than habitually
Communicate technical constraints to non-technical stakeholders without being dismissive or overly technical
