You will be responsible for front-end and back-end development, architecture, and performance, bringing the vision of our growth, product, and customer experience teams to life. This role is strictly focused on engineering and does not include IT-related responsibilities (e.g., device management, internal systems, help desk support).

Ensure smooth data flow and performance visibility from ad click to checkout to subscription renewal

Education & Experience:

10+ years of hands-on experience as a front-end or full-stack developer

7+ years of experience working specifically in Shopify Plus and Recharge environments

Skilled in working with Shopify APIs, Recharge APIs, and custom app integrations

Strong knowledge of pixel architecture, event tracking, and tagging frameworks (GA4, Meta, TikTok)

Comfortable operating in a high-growth, fast-paced environment with shifting priorities

Excellent communication skills, with the ability to explain technical concepts to non-technical stakeholders

Passion for clean code, fast sites, happy customers, and results-driven engineering

This is a remote position.
