About the role

We’re looking for a Senior Software Developer to join Bold, delivering ecommerce solutions in an AI-enabled development environment.

This hands‑on, execution-focused role involves leveraging AI tools to accelerate development while applying strong engineering judgment to decide when to rely on AI and when to write solutions manually. You’ll work within established architectures and patterns, ensuring AI‑assisted and human‑written code is secure, reliable, and aligned with long‑term system goals.

• Identify and surface technical risks or edge cases early to proactively address potential issues.
• Suggest incremental improvements to workflows, tooling, and AI usage to increase efficiency and accuracy.

What we’re looking for

• Minimum 7+ years of professional software development experience, ideally in SaaS, ecommerce, or Shopify ecosystems.
• Strong proficiency in PHP (Laravel) and Go, with experience in JavaScript, TypeScript, HTML5, CSS3, and React or similar frameworks.
• Hands‑on experience with REST and GraphQL APIs, including integrations with Shopify Admin and Storefront APIs.
• Comfort with Git, modern development workflows, and CI/CD pipelines.
• Solid understanding of secure coding practices, system performance, and maintainability.
• Experience using AI or automation tools in development workflows is a strong plus.

What Sets You Apart

• Leverages AI tools effectively to accelerate development while applying strong judgment to guide outputs.
• Reviews, refines, and shapes code to align with architecture, security, and long‑term system goals.
• Communicates clearly and confidently, raising issues, offering insights, and influencing technical decisions.
• Mentors peers and elevates team performance through collaboration and knowledge sharing.
• Solves practical problems efficiently, delivering high‑quality outcomes without overcomplication.
• Adapts quickly to new tools and workflows, responding confidently to changing priorities.
• Brings a solution‑oriented mindset, turning challenges into opportunities and helping the team succeed.
