Company Description
Platter – Tech-enabled Shopify Platinum Partner agency
Job Description
Join a premier Shopify Plus agency building high-performance storefronts for over 200 DTC brands, including Every Man Jack and GFuel. You will develop custom theme features using Liquid, Tailwind CSS, TypeScript, and React, converting Figma designs into seamless e-commerce experiences that have already powered over $1B in GMV for global clients.
Why This Role is Remarkable
• Work as a key developer for a Shopify Platinum Partner that serves elite brands ranging from high-growth startups to Fortune 100 companies like Ministry of Supply.
• Significant technical impact building on Platter’s proprietary Shopify theme architecture rather than basic template customization, pushing the boundaries of what is possible in e-commerce.
• Join a fast-growing, VC-backed team (Animal Capital) that values craftsmanship, clean code, and a supportive remote culture with flexible hours and EST overlap.
What You Will Do
• Build and optimize custom Shopify theme features using a modern stack including Liquid, Tailwind CSS, TypeScript, and React/Alpine JS.
• Translate complex Figma designs into fully responsive, accessible, and SEO‑optimized storefronts that prioritize site performance and scalability.
• Collaborate through rigorous code reviews and pull request workflows to ensure all deliverables meet high standards for maintainability and technical excellence.
The Ideal Candidate
• At least 8 years of frontend development experience with a minimum of 2 years specifically focused on Shopify theme development and Tailwind CSS.
• Advanced proficiency in TypeScript, React/Alpine JS, and the Shopify ecosystem including Liquid, metaobjects, and the Search & Discovery app.
• Strong commitment to engineering best practices, including semantic HTML, accessibility standards, and proactive internal communication within a distributed team.
