What are the responsibilities and job description for the Shopify Developer position at Gemlux Fishing?
Join the GEMLUX Team!
For almost 60 years, GEM Products, LLC; a privately-owned family centered company, has delivered innovative, creative and award-winning solutions to the marine industry. Our goal is to make boating better! We are growing, and we are searching for highly talented, self-motivated, and goal-oriented individuals to join our team.
GEM is seeking an experienced Shopify developer to take full ownership of our eCommerce platform and integrations. This role will be responsible for maintaining and enhancing our Shopify site, managing custom functionality, and supporting integrations with NetSuite ERP (via Celigo). This is a high-impact role in a small team, requiring strong technical ability, ownership, and flexibility.
The primary responsibility of this position will be to develop, maintain, and support our Shopify eCommerce site and platform integrations. This includes custom app development, integration configurations, front-end theming, and more. This is primarily a backend and functional development role, focused on building reliable systems, integrations, and scalable functionality rather than visual design. However, the ideal candidate should be comfortable working within existing design frameworks and able to modify or create themes based on established design concepts. This role will coordinate with both the marketing and IT departments to provide a functional solution and a high-quality customer shopping experience. You will take over responsibilities currently handled by third-party consultants and become the internal expert on our platform.
