Shopify Developer — Full‑Stack, Apps & Performance

Codup; United States; Remote; USD 120,000 - 180,000; Full time

Job summary

Codup is seeking a skilled Shopify Developer to join our delivery team. You will work across storefronts, themes, and embedded apps, delivering fast, reliable commerce experiences and robust data flows.

This hands-on role covers full-stack challenges—from Liquid and theme development to backend schemas, OAuth flows, and API integrations with ERPs and CRMs. Strong problem solving and independent ownership are essential.

Qualifications

• Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science, Engineering, or a related field, or equivalent practical experience.
• Proven experience as a Shopify Developer, with work you can walk us through.
• Strong Liquid skills and experience building on Shopify 2.0, including sections and blocks.
• Hands‑on experience with Shopify APIs: Admin (GraphQL and REST), Storefront, and Cart.
• Experience building embedded Shopify apps: OAuth, session tokens, App Bridge, and Polaris.
• Experience with theme app extensions and Shopify CLI.
• Working knowledge of metaobjects and metafields as a structured content layer.
• Shopify webhooks: subscription, verification, and reliable processing.
• Solid frontend fundamentals: HTML, CSS, JavaScript, and React.
• TypeScript in production, not just as a preference.
• Node.js for backend development. Remix is preferred; strong Next.js or equivalent experience is considered.
• PostgreSQL: schema design, migrations, and an ORM such as Prisma or Drizzle.
• Third-party API integration with proper error handling, retries, and validation.
• Git and a pull request based workflow, with CI/CD exposure.
• Shopify Plus experience.
• Clear communication and the ability to work independently across multiple projects.

Responsibilities

• Build and maintain Shopify storefronts and themes, with a focus on performance, responsiveness, and clean Liquid.
• Develop embedded Shopify apps that run inside the Shopify admin, including OAuth install flows, session token authentication, and admin interfaces.
• Build theme app extensions and ship them through Shopify CLI without disrupting the merchant’s theme.
• Work with Shopify Admin, Storefront, and Cart APIs, along with webhooks and App Proxy.
• Model structured content and configuration using metaobjects and metafields.
• Design and maintain backend services and database schemas that support app functionality.
• Integrate with third-party systems and APIs such as ERPs, CRMs, 3PLs, and support platforms, with sensible handling of failures, retries, and timeouts.
• Handle API credentials and sensitive data securely, including encryption at rest and keeping secrets out of logs and user interfaces.
• Translate designs from the design team into working, accessible interfaces.
• Write unit and integration tests as part of normal delivery.
• Troubleshoot and debug across the stack, from storefront rendering through to backend integration failures.
• Take part in code review and contribute to CI/CD pipelines.
