Responsibilities
- Delivery across five brand storefronts on Shopify Hydrogen, Shopify Liquid, and Magento: a steady, well-prioritized flow of site updates, integrations, and fixes
- The reliability of those storefronts and the third-party integrations behind them: payments, feeds, analytics, marketing tools, and ERP/OMS (NetSuite)
- Intake and prioritization with the business, turning merchandising, marketing, and operations requests into shipped work
- The team itself: code review, standards, coaching, and helping engineers take on more
- How the team uses AI to move faster without lowering the quality bar
- Help lead the migration of our brands onto Shopify, consolidating onto a single platform over the coming year
- Keep five storefronts and their integrations stable, with few surprises and fast recovery when something breaks
- Shorten the turnaround on site updates and requests from the business
- Level up the team's practices and output, with AI as a real part of how they build
- In 90 days: you know the brands, the stack, and the team, you're shipping alongside them, and you've tightened how work comes in and gets prioritized
- In a year: turnaround on business requests is faster, the sites are more stable, the team's practices and output have stepped up, and the engineers on it have grown
