About the Role

At Pavago, one of our clients is hiring a Shopify Web Developer / Store Builder to build, customize, and maintain premium Shopify storefronts for B2B clients while leading the complete redesign of the company’s primary website.

What Makes You a Strong Fit

You’ll likely thrive in this role if you:

• Enjoy building high-quality Shopify stores from the ground up
• Have deep hands-on experience with Shopify rather than only managing storefront content
• Understand both the technical and user-experience sides of eCommerce
• Can translate Figma designs into polished, responsive storefronts

• Care about website performance, responsiveness, and usability
• Can independently troubleshoot Shopify and front-end issues
• Take ownership of projects from development through launch
• Can manage multiple Shopify builds without sacrificing quality
• Communicate clearly with designers and other cross-functional stakeholders
• Thrive in a remote, collaborative environment

What a Typical Day Looks Like

Your day may involve building and customizing Shopify storefronts for multiple clients, developing theme functionality with Liquid, HTML, CSS, and JavaScript, or working on the redesign of the company’s primary website.

Throughout the day, you could collaborate with designers to implement new Figma layouts, configure products and collections, integrate third-party Shopify applications, or troubleshoot storefront functionality.

You’ll also optimize website performance, responsiveness, usability, and conversion paths while keeping the team updated on progress and blockers through Slack.

In short: you build premium Shopify storefronts that combine strong engineering, polished design, fast performance, and conversion-focused eCommerce experiences.
