Senior E-Commerce Engineer

Job requirements

• Proven experience specifically developing on Shopify Plus. You know the Admin API, Storefront API, and Liquid inside out

• Proficiency in modern CSS and lightweight JavaScript frameworks

• Comfortable using the command-line tool provided by Shopify to manage and develop themes and apps, along with using the version control system GitHub and Continuous Integration/Continuous Deployment (CI/CD) automated systems for safely releasing updates to the storefront design.

• You care about the pixel-perfect implementation of a design and the "micro-interactions" that delight users.

• You understand that the ultimate goal of your code is to help our customers and members buy amazing Skincare, Makeup, and Bodycare products.

Job responsibilities

• Develop and maintain our custom Shopify Plus theme. Write clean Liquid code that maximises the platform's native capabilities.

• Architect a library of "Sections" and "Blocks" that allow our eCommerce team to build landing pages dynamically without engineering support.

• Own the Core Web Vitals of the site. Relentlessly optimise CSS, JavaScript, and asset loading to ensure we are among the fastest beauty sites on the web.

• Implement "progressive enhancement" techniques to ensure the site feels instantaneous

• Utilise Shopify Functions and Checkout UI Extensions to customise the purchase flow (e.g., membership validation) in a way that is upgrade-safe and scalable when custom work is required, but prioritise using native or 3rd party capabilities when they make the most sense.

• Work with Full-Stack Engineers to consume custom APIs where native Shopify data isn't enough, ensuring the integration is seamless and secure.

• Champion accessibility (WCAG) standards in every line of code.

• Participate in code reviews, ensuring that we aren't just "hacking it together" but are building a codebase that will last and that the team is proud of.

• Set best practice standards for the team to work from, paving the way and gently mentoring others around you to deliver.

• Free membership to Beauty Pie+ and 30% off our products

• Pieshares (stock options)

• 25 days holiday & your birthday off

• Flexible bank holidays
