Experienced Shopify Developer Needed for High-Converting E-Commerce Website — Long-Term Opportunity
Worldwide
Job Description We are a fast-growing e-commerce brand in the premium pet health and wellness space, currently looking for an experienced Shopify developer with a strong understanding of e-commerce and conversion optimization to work closely with our team. We have an established website, active marketing campaigns, and a product we are preparing to scale significantly. As we increase traffic to the site, we want to make sure the website is performing at the highest possible level and that nothing within the customer journey is unnecessarily hurting conversions. We are looking for someone who can go through our website carefully from both a technical and customer-experience perspective, identify areas that should be improved, and then actually implement those improvements. This is not simply a design role. We want someone who understands how successful direct-to-consumer websites work and can combine strong Shopify development skills with an understanding of what gets customers to purchase. What You'll Be Working On You will work directly with our team to continuously improve our Shopify website, including areas such as: Overall website functionality and performance Mobile and desktop experience Homepage structure and user flow Product page experience Navigation and customer journey Add-to-cart and purchase flow Subscription purchase experience Website speed and performance Shopify theme improvements and customizations Bugs, technical issues, or unnecessary friction App integrations and conflicts Landing page improvements Conversion-focused layout changes Trust, credibility, and social-proof placement Calls-to-action and purchase buttons UX/UI improvements Testing new website elements and layouts Ensuring tracking and website functionality are working correctly Implementing new pages, sections, features, and functionality as we grow We don't expect everything to be rebuilt. We want someone who can look at what currently exists, understand the business and customer, determine where improvements can be made, and efficiently implement those changes. What We're Looking For The ideal person has significant experience working with Shopify-based DTC/e-commerce brands and understands that a website needs to do more than simply look good. You should understand: Shopify development Shopify Liquid HTML/CSS/JavaScript Mobile-first development E-commerce UX/UI Conversion-focused website design Product page optimization Subscription-based e-commerce Website performance and page speed Shopify apps and integrations Analytics and conversion tracking Landing pages A/B testing and experimentation Experience working with consumer health, wellness, supplements, pets, beauty, or other DTC brands would be a major advantage. Long-Term Opportunity We are not looking for someone for one small project and then moving on. Our goal is to find the right developer who can become our ongoing website partner. Initially, there will be a significant amount of work reviewing and improving the existing site. From there, we would like to establish an ongoing monthly retainer where you continue working with our team on: New website improvements Conversion improvements New landing pages New features Testing Technical fixes Campaign-specific pages Website maintenance New product launches Ongoing optimization as traffic and sales increase We move quickly and are looking for someone responsive, proactive, and interested in building a long-term relationship with a growing brand. Important We don't want someone who simply waits for us to tell them exactly what button to move or what code to change. We are specifically looking for someone who can look at the website and say: "Here's what I think should be changed, here's why, and here's how I would improve it." You should be comfortable making recommendations and then executing them. We will provide the website and additional information about the business to qualified applicants.
