This position is open in Latam and Europe. You should be able to take some meetings in the West Coast time zone. The position is mostly asynchronous but you will have some online meetings most of them on the CST (time zone) and some of them on the west coast time zone.
All developers have multiple assigned projects, you are going to be working with strong technical skill developers, the team is focused on e-commerce projects. It doesn’t mean that the work is repetitive, we do custom developments for all our clients and each project is different from the other.
Requirements:
- +5 years of experience as a developer

- Experience as a frontend developer using JS, HTML and CSS
- Experience working in a marketing agency or ecommerce agency
- Strong english skills (upper intermediate or advanced)

- Detail oriented
- Strong sense of accountability
- Previous remote experience
- Highly organized
- Proven ability to successfully work across multiple accounts/projects simultaneously
Bonus points:
- Experience working with ReactJS (NextJS + Vercel)
- Experience working on E-commerce website projects (strong preference for Shopify experience)
- Experience working with WordPress or other CMS (focus on the frontend)
About you
- You should be comfortable working solo or leaning on a team.
- You should feel comfortable taking responsibility for the completion and launch of a project.
- You should care about the quality of the code and the output.
- We’re looking for someone who’s led the development of commercially available e-commerce websites built on Shopify. This is the core responsibility of the position.
- We regularly use React to enhance our Shopify sites and Next.js to build headless sites so experience with these technologies is definitely a plus.
- Agencies are problem solvers by nature. A perfect candidate has well-formed opinions, great discipline, naturally established work habits, and takes delight in their work.
- A great quote about what we’re looking for from people who have been managing remote teams longer than us:
“Everyone has to be an A-player. Remote team members are used to four to six hours of focused, uninterrupted work every day. You have to be able to get through problems on your own and be productive without asking for help. There’s no substitute for skill and experience in those cases.”
About the client:
We build commerce engines.
We’re not a 360 agency.
We’re not a marketing agency.
We’re a design and engineering studio. That’s our difference.
We’re a remote only, asynchronous first company.
Our e-commerce stores are designed and built to give our clients a technical edge over their competition. To do this, we synthesize business requirements, UX requirements, marketing requirements, technology requirements and creative requirements into a single digital shopping experience built for our clients and their consumers – a commerce engine. Our technology becomes the foundation upon which businesses scale their operations, escalate their marketing efforts, and grow their sales. The value of our work is defined by how big of a moat our clients’ technology creates between them, their competition, and Amazon.
On any given day, you might:
- Develop new features
- Proactively suggest next steps for the project overall
- Track and report project progress.
- Pair programming with other members of the team
- Problem solve
- Make integrations with apps and custom backends
Other things you should know:
- This is a full-time position
- Salary commensurate with experience
- Although we are accepting applications from candidates located anywhere in the world, this position will require that the candidate is able to accommodate some remote internal team and client-facing meetings in North American/European time zones.
Benefits after the third month of employment:
- Once per year, the entire team meets in one place (all the costs will be covered by the company)
- 500 usd for equipment
- 20 PTOs
- 10 holidays from your country of residence (you choose which one)
- Bonus depending on the performance of the company
- 3% Salary increment per year
- Our primary work mode is asynchronous, which enhances our efficiency and minimizes the need for frequent meetings.
