About the role

Key responsibilities & impact

You take responsibility for the technical development, stability and performance of our Shopify stores.
You work closely with the performance marketing and brand teams and translate growth hypotheses into technical solutions — from A/B tests and landing pages to conversion-optimized funnels.
You think in metrics: you understand how pagespeed, UX and funnel logic affect conversion rate, AOV (average order value) and customer lifetime value — and you prioritize your work accordingly.
You proactively deliver new features and keep themes and apps at a state-of-the-art level.
You build Shopify apps — including integrations with third-party systems — and ensure their integration into existing Shopify stores.
You support our team with technical SEO and ensure a performant, search-engine-friendly foundation.
You keep up to date with the latest industry trends and technologies, continuously learn and apply new tools and practices to steadily improve our web presence.

Requirements

What you’ll need

You have at least 2 years of experience as a developer in a DTC or eCommerce company — ideally within an owner-managed multi-brand setup on Shopify Plus.
You have experience with in-house eCommerce teams and have worked collaboratively on growth initiatives, not only through agency or freelance projects.
You possess solid knowledge of HTML, JavaScript, React and CSS/PostCSS as well as Shopify Plus & app development (front- and backend).
You are comfortable working with Shopify CLI, Liquid, the Theme Editor (schema/settings) and Shopify Theme Sync.
You have experience developing backend functionality in Node.js, Ruby on Rails or similar technologies.
You are proficient with GitHub.
You have excellent problem-solving skills and strong attention to detail.
You speak German at a native level and have very good English skills.
You are based in the DACH region.
You are self-directed, disciplined and work in a goal-oriented manner.
You are motivated, reliable and bring a high level of loyalty and responsibility, especially when handling code.
You understand that good code in eCommerce is not an end in itself — it drives revenue, UX and brand perception.
You like to challenge the status quo, are open to change and bring new ideas to continuously improve our processes and products.
