Job description

About us

We’re a bunch of like-minded people who love e-commerce and Shopify. We are a Shopify Plus Partner agency, and we also build apps trusted by 17,000+ merchants.

We are 100% bootstrapped, meaning we answer only to our clients and our common sense. We’ve built a European Shopify powerhouse based in Prague, and now we are looking for a leader to establish and scale our presence in North America.

This is not a "9-to-5" job. This is a founding-style role for a Sales Hunter withEntrepreneurial Ambition.

In Year 1, you will spearhead our US expansion, acting as a hands-on builder. You will focus heavily on sourcing high-value Shopify leads and building a network of strategic partnerships. As the US portfolio grows, your focus will transition toward operational leadership – scaling the US entity, and hiring and leading your ownlocal team.

Who we are looking for

• Sales Hunter: You have a proven track record in e-commerce sales and a network that respects your name.
• Leader: You have experience managing people and know how to build a high-performing culture.
• Networker: You are a natural at building relationships and closing deals through partnerships.
• Entrepreneurial Spirit: You don't just want a job; you want to build a company. You are comfortable with ambiguity and have the grit to build from the ground up.
• Shopify Expert: You have deep experience with the Shopify platform. Ideally, you’ve worked at Shopify or a top-tier Shopify agency.

Requirements

• Drive Revenue: Proactively identify and close new business opportunities for Shopify development projects (new builds and migrations).
• Build the Ecosystem: Create and nurture strategic partnerships with other agencies, tech partners, and influencers in the US e-commerce space.
• Brand Ambassador: Increase brand awareness of Digismoothie in the US. You are the "face" of our brand across the ocean.
• Strategic Consulting: Assist clients as a local expert during the sales process and provide high-level US-based business consultations.
• Future Leadership: Transition from an individual contributor to the Manager of our upcoming US entity, eventually hiring and leading a local team.

Why join us

• Competitive Compensation: High base salary + Uncapped OTE. We want you to be highly rewarded for the business you bring.
• Stability & Autonomy: Work for a profitable, carbon-neutral company that values results over "office hours."
• Premium Benefits: Full Healthcare (Medical, Dental, Vision) via EOR, 25 days of PTO + 5 sick days + US Federal holidays.
• Proven Delivery Team: You sell, we deliver. You’ll have a world-class team of developers, designers, and PMs ready to execute your deals at the highest level.
• Founding Role: A clear, documented growth path to becoming the head of our US subsidiary.
