Job description

About the Role

We’re looking for an experienced Shopify Developer – E-commerce Website Migration & Development to lead the migration, development, configuration, and launch of an existing e-commerce website onto Shopify.

You’ll take ownership of the entire development process, ensuring the new store is fully functional, user-friendly, professionally designed, and aligned with business requirements.

This role offers the opportunity for a long-term engagement, starting with one website and potentially expanding to two additional website development projects based on successful delivery and performance.

After all three websites are launched, the role will transition into a reduced working capacity focused on website maintenance, troubleshooting, technical support, and ongoing e-commerce management.

We’re seeking a proactive professional who can work independently, provide technical recommendations, and build a lasting working relationship while supporting the growth of the business’s online presence.

Schedule

• Monday to Friday, flexible between 8:00 AM and 6:00 PM (client business hours); 35–40 hours per week

• Initial Project Duration: Approximately 3 months, with long-term employment potential

Key Responsibilities

• Lead and execute the migration of an existing website to Shopify.

• Rebuild and configure the website, ensuring a professional, functional, and user-friendly storefront.

• Migrate existing website content, product listings, images, collections, customer data, and other relevant information.

• Customize Shopify themes, layouts, and storefront functionality based on business requirements.

• Configure payment gateways, shipping settings, checkout, and third-party integrations.

• Ensure website responsiveness and compatibility across desktop and mobile devices.

• Implement SEO best practices, including metadata, URL structures, redirects, and search visibility considerations.

• Conduct website testing, troubleshoot technical issues, and ensure a smooth launch.

• Recommend development timelines, technical improvements, and e-commerce best practices.

• Provide regular updates on project progress, deliverables, and potential challenges.

• Handle post-launch troubleshooting, technical support, and ongoing website maintenance.

• Take ownership of subsequent website development projects as the engagement progresses.

Requirements

• Proven experience developing, customizing, and launching Shopify websites.

• Strong hands-on experience migrating existing websites to Shopify.

• Solid understanding of Shopify themes, Liquid, apps, and e-commerce functionality.

• Proficiency in HTML, CSS, JavaScript, and Shopify Liquid.

• Experience with product catalog migration, payment integrations, shipping configurations, and third-party applications.

• Understanding of responsive web design, website performance optimization, and SEO best practices.

• Ability to independently manage website development projects from planning through deployment.

• Strong troubleshooting, analytical, and problem-solving skills.

• Excellent communication skills and the ability to provide proactive project updates.

• Ability to manage deadlines, prioritize tasks, and deliver quality work with minimal supervision.

Working Arrangement

• Full-time engagement of 35–40 hours per week.

• Monday to Friday schedule.

• Flexible working hours between 8:00 AM and 6:00 PM, aligned with client business hours.

• Fully remote working arrangement.

• Initial focus on completing the first Shopify website, ideally by January/February 2027.

Long-Term Opportunity

The client has three websites planned for Shopify development:

• First Website: Immediate priority – migration, development, and launch.

• Second Website: Subsequent development project, subject to successful completion of the first website and performance.

• Third Website: Further development project following the second website.

Upon completion of all three websites, the successful candidate is expected to continue working with the client in a reduced capacity, overseeing website maintenance, troubleshooting, technical support, and general e-commerce requirements.

This is an opportunity for an experienced Shopify professional to take ownership of multiple e-commerce development projects and build a lasting working relationship with a growing business.
