Requirements
Requirements
  • 5+ years of professional software engineering experience, with at least 3 years building and operating complex ecommerce platforms at scale (Magento 2, Shopify Plus, BigCommerce, Salesforce Commerce Cloud, commercetools, or equivalent). Generalist backgrounds without ecommerce depth will not be a fit.
  • Strong in JavaScript and TypeScript, with hands-on experience shipping production work in Vue 3 and Nuxt, or a comparable framework such as Next and React. Production experience with a headless CMS, ideally Sanity.
  • Demonstrable experience with a headless or decoupled frontend architecture integrated with a commerce backend. Experience integrating ecommerce platforms with ERP systems (NetSuite is a plus
  • SAP, Dynamics, Salesforce, or similar are acceptable) and a track record of owning multi-system integrations across payments, OMS, PIM, search, and CDP.
  • Hands-on experience with caching at the platform level, including Varnish, Redis, or equivalent.
  • Solid, practical grounding in CI/CD, code review, monitoring, and incident response. Theory is not enough.
  • A solid understanding of UI and UX principles, with the ability to evaluate frontend work on more than just whether it functions. You do not need to be a designer, but you should care about the experience the code produces.
  • Experience working with external agencies and vendors, including scoping work, reviewing deliverables, and pushing back on weak recommendations. The role is built around this dynamic, so a track record of doing it well matters.
  • Familiarity with PHP and Magento 2 is a plus, sufficient to follow the code, weigh in on architectural decisions, and review work from the backend contractor. You do not need to be a Magento specialist. Most backend implementation is handled by an experienced contractor, and your role on that side is to hold the line on quality, schedule, and direction.
Job Responsibility
Job Responsibility
  • Own the execution of the technical direction, quality, and uptime of our ecommerce platform and its integrations.
  • Lead the backend of our platform (Magento 2 implemented by an experienced contractor) side through substantive review: setting quality gates, holding the work to schedule, and stepping into the code when a decision needs senior judgment.
  • Write, review, and ship our front-end code (Vue 3 and Nuxt for storefront, Sanity for content) alongside our partnered agency, and drive the work to reduce technical debt through whatever means make sense, including refactoring, replacing patterns, and over time bringing more of the work in-house as we grow the internal team.
  • Own the integrations between Magento and the systems it depends on, including ERP (NetSuite), payments, OMS, PIM, and CMS.
  • You will be involved when production issues arise, and you will contribute to improving monitoring, deployment, and reliability over time. Conduct substantive engineering review on code from internal contributors and external agencies: catching defects, missed edge cases, and shortcuts that will create cost later, and giving specific, actionable feedback. You will push back on external recommendations that conflict with platform health or long-term business outcomes.
  • Help establish and reinforce standards for code quality, documentation, and development workflows, so rework drops and predictability rises.
  • Eventually, we see this role including direct people-management responsibilities, including hiring, performance management, exiting, and everything in between.
  • Other duties as assigned.
