You will manage external agencies, hire a small engineering team, and drive data integrations with NetSuite, Snowflake, and GA4. Remote/Wfh setup with US-hours alignment offered.

• 8+ years in ecommerce engineering, including 5+ years on Shopify Plus serving multiple brands or stores from shared code
• Led a platform migration end to end, ideally Magento to Shopify (data, redirects, SEO, cutover)
• Built or owned an ERP integration, ideally NetSuite
• Led engineers and managed agencies or contractors to scope and budget

Responsabilidades

• Lead the migrations. Start with our UK/EU business moving from Magento to Shopify, then consolidate the remaining storefronts onto the same base.
• Manage development partners. Scope, estimate, review and accept agency work against written statements of work, track spend, and bring capability in-house over time.
• Integrations and data. Own the Shopify side of our NetSuite, Snowflake and GA4 connections so orders, inventory, pricing, customers and reporting stay clean.
• 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 for specs, code, tests and first-pass review, with engineers owning every release decision.
