ECOM OPERATORS // DEVELOPER RECRUITMENT

We’re hiring a developer who ships fast across ten Shopify brands.

We don’t need someone to maintain one storefront. We need someone who can land a feature on a brand by Friday, port it to two more by Tuesday, and have Klaviyo flows live by Thursday. AI-native, Shopify-deep, opinionated about quality.

01 // WHO WE ARE

A holding company. Ten Shopify brands. One engineering bench.

Ecom Operators is the operating company behind a portfolio of 10 DTC brands across health, wellness, and skincare. We run them all on Shopify, with Klaviyo for retention, a shared component library, and a small, sharp engineering team that ships across every brand. We don’t do agency timelines. We don’t do tickets that sit for a week. We ship.

Our developers don’t inherit codebases. They make them better.

02 // THE BAR

What we're looking for.

Advanced Shopify.

Liquid, sections, theme architecture, Hydrogen if relevant, custom apps when needed. You’ve shipped non-trivial customizations — not just edited a template.

AI-native.

Claude Code, Cursor, Copilot — you use one (or several) every day. We’re not interested in someone allergic to AI-assisted workflows.

DTC context.

You’ve worked on real DTC brands or at an agency serving them. You know what a CVR is. You know why page speed matters. You know how a checkout breaks.

Klaviyo familiarity.

You’ve built or debugged flows, events, and template logic — not just send-and-forget broadcasts.

Strong English.

Native or C1+. Async-first team — we write specs, PRs, and Loom updates in English all day.

Speed and judgment.

You ship the right scope, not the maximalist version. You know when to stop.

Remote-ready.

You’ve worked async across timezones. You don’t need a stand-up to know what to do next.

GitHub presence.

We want to see how you commit, branch, and document. Public repos, OSS contributions, or a portfolio org are all fine.

Nice to have: CheckoutChamp.

Not required — but if you’ve touched it, say so. We use it on a few brands.

03 // FILTER

Don't apply if:

You’ve only worked on agency client sites with month-long QA cycles.
You won’t use AI tools. We move at the speed of AI-assisted engineering, not against it.
Your Shopify is “I once edited a theme.”
Your English isn’t strong enough to write async specs and review PRs in English.
You want to architect a perfect system before shipping. We ship and then refactor.

04 // THE OFFER

What we offer.

Full-time contractor role.

Competitive monthly base, paid in USD.

Real impact, fast.

Your work ships to ten production storefronts. You’ll see results within days, not quarters.

AI-leveraged team.

We don’t debate whether AI belongs in the workflow. It’s baked in.

Direct line to ops.

No middle-managers between you and the brand leads. Specs come from the people running the brand.

Cross-brand range.

Shopify, Klaviyo, Liquid, custom apps, occasionally CheckoutChamp — you won’t be siloed on one stack for a year.

Remote.

Work from wherever. We coordinate async.

Tools provided.

Claude / Cursor / Copilot subscriptions, GitHub org seat, Shopify Partner access — covered.
