You will work closely with UI/UX designers and project managers to convert high-fidelity designs into clean, scalable, and conversion-focused Shopify stores using best practices.

Work with Shopify metafields, metaobjects, and custom data structures
Handle product, collection, cart, and checkout customization within Shopify limits
Performance & Optimization
Optimize page speed and performance across devices
Minimize reliance on heavy third-party apps through custom coding
Ensure clean markup, efficient assets, and best loading practices
Debug and resolve theme performance issues
App & Integration Support
Integrate and configure Shopify apps where necessary
Work with APIs, third-party scripts, and analytics tools
Ensure integrations do not compromise performance or UX
Cross-Team Collaboration
Work closely with UI/UX designers to ensure feasibility and design accuracy
Coordinate with Project Managers to meet timelines and delivery standards
Participate in code reviews, QA, and launch readiness checks
QA, Testing & Deployment
Ensure cross-browser and cross-device compatibility
