Responsibilities

• Releases and platform health. Repository, environments, CI/CD, automated testing, monitoring and peak-season change freezes. Keep site speed, uptime, app count and platform spend moving the right way.
• Build the team. Hire a small engineering team and an AI-assisted workflow (Claude Code or similar) for specs, code, tests and first-pass review, with engineers owning every release decision.

Qualifications

• Shopify B2B, Markets, checkout extensibility and Shopify Functions
• UK/EU ecommerce: VAT, localization and translation
