Job Title: Frontend Developer (React / Shopify Hydrogen)
Location: Eastern Europe - Remote
Schedule: Full-Time (40 hours/week), 9am - 5pm Eastern Standard Time
Salary Range: Up to $3200
Our Partner is a US-based e-commerce retailer running a custom headless storefront. They are looking for an experienced Frontend Developer with strong React, React Router, and Shopify Hydrogen experience to help maintain and improve their existing headless storefront, and potentially support future migrations of additional e-commerce sites to Shopify/Hydrogen.
This is primarily a frontend role. Their internal team handles most of the backend product and catalog data work, but this developer should understand the broader Shopify ecosystem and be comfortable troubleshooting issues involving Shopify APIs, third-party integrations, search, CMS, analytics, and customer-facing functionality.
Strong UI/UX judgment is also important. They are not looking for a dedicated designer, but need someone who can take business requirements and rough mockups, identify usability or technical limitations, recommend practical alternatives, and translate them into polished e-commerce experiences.
Must-Haves (Non-Negotiable)
Strong proficiency in HTML, CSS, JavaScript, React, and React Router
Professional experience with Shopify Hydrogen and headless commerce
Experience with Shopify APIs and GraphQL
Strong debugging and problem-solving skills
Good UI/UX judgment and experience translating designs or wireframes into functional interfaces
Ability to evaluate technical feasibility and recommend practical solutions
Experience working with APIs and third-party integrations
Excellent English communication skills
Ability to work independently and take ownership of projects and problems
Full-time availability (40 hours/week)
Nice-to-Haves
Experience with Shopify theme architecture and customization
Experience with Storyblok or another headless CMS
Experience with Algolia in React or headless e-commerce environments
Experience with e-commerce analytics and event tracking, including GA4
Experience with Klaviyo or similar marketing integrations in a headless environment
Experience with e-commerce SEO and site migrations
Experience migrating established e-commerce sites from custom platforms to Shopify/Hydrogen
Experience with performance optimization, Git, testing, and deployment workflows
The ideal candidate is a pragmatic, solution-oriented frontend developer who combines strong technical skills with good UI/UX judgment. They should be comfortable working in a customized e-commerce environment, identifying problems beyond the immediate frontend task, and collaborating with both technical and non-technical team members.
We value someone who can not build what is requested, but also recognize when a proposed approach may create usability or technical problems and recommend a better solution.
