Senior Shopify + GSAP Developer

We have a Shopify store (Dawn-based custom theme) for a premium consumer product. The homepage centerpiece is a full-screen, scroll-driven product animation: about 430 frames drawn to a canvas, pinned with GSAP, with Lenis smooth scrolling. It works well on Safari and Mac trackpads. On Chrome and on Windows PCs with a mouse wheel it feels laggy and unresponsive. We need someone who has shipped this kind of thing before to make it smooth everywhere and get us launched.
