Experienced Shopify Developer Needed for Premium Wellness Brand Website Rebuild

We are seeking an experienced Shopify developer to rebuild the website for Awakened Alchemy, a premium dietary supplement brand focused on cognitive performance, cellular vitality, recovery, and the disciplined pursuit of human potential.

We are looking for a developer who can take a detailed handoff package and implement it as a polished, fast, responsive, editable Shopify storefront. The site should feel premium, editorial, clean, and highly intentional. It should not look like a generic supplement store or a collection of pasted screenshots. The mockups are visual references. The final site must be built as real Shopify sections using HTML, Liquid, CSS, JavaScript, metafields, and metaobjects where appropriate. Brand Direction Awakened Alchemy is built around the idea that “Mastery is built daily.” The brand is premium but not flashy, scientific but not clinical, philosophical but not obscure, and natural but not rustic.
