The Dragon Shield story began in 1999, in the backroom of a Danish gaming store with a gamer who knew card game accessories could be better, and for over 20 years, Dragon Shield has been the market leader and standard bearer in high-quality sleeves. In 2024 we celebrated our 25th anniversary, but one thing has always remained the same: We are still gamers, and that is reflected in everything we do.

We are seeking a Senior Full Stack Shopify Developer to lead the development, optimization, and scalability of our growing portfolio of Shopify platforms, including flagship D2C and B2B storefronts. This role requires deep hands-on expertise across Shopify front-end and back-end development, integrations, data flows, and platform extensibility.

The ideal candidate is a strong individual contributor with an end-to-end ownership mindset—capable of building, integrating, and maintaining complex Shopify ecosystems while partnering closely with technology, marketing, and business stakeholders. This is a senior individual contributor role focused on deep technical impact rather than people management.

Key Responsibilities

• Lead the development, enhancement, and maintenance of Shopify themes, templates, and custom functionality using Liquid, JavaScript, HTML, and CSS.
• Explicitly stating ownership (e.g., own the technical health, architecture decisions, and long-term scalability of Shopify platforms across multiple storefronts)
• Design and implement custom Shopify Plus solutions, including Scripts, Functions, Checkout Extensibility, and B2B features.
• Build, integrate, and maintain third-party and SaaS platform integrations (ERP, CRM, PIM, WMS, marketing tools, payment gateways, tax, shipping, etc.).
• Scaling high-traffic storefronts and complex order volumes
• Develop and support custom applications, APIs, and middleware integrations using REST and GraphQL.
• Own end-to-end website and application lifecycle, including databases, backend services, and deployment workflows.
• Write clean, scalable, well-documented, and maintainable code following modern engineering best practices.
• Optimize site performance, security, reliability, and scalability across high-traffic and high-order-volume environments.
• Collaborate closely with technology, marketing, UX, and business teams to translate requirements into high-quality technical solutions.
• Ensure adherence to SEO best practices, accessibility standards, and performance optimization techniques.
• Implement and support A/B testing, unit testing, and QA best practices.
• Maintain high standards of engineering excellence, code quality, and continuous improvement.
• Decision-Making Authority
• Provide technical guidance, mentorship, and proactive feedback to peers when needed.

Required Qualifications

• 5\+ years of professional web development experience, with strong front-end and full-stack expertise
• Hands-on experience with Shopify and Shopify Plus, including custom themes, apps, and integrations
• Strong proficiency in JavaScript, Liquid, HTML, CSS, and modern front-end development practices
• Experience working with REST APIs, GraphQL, JSON, and web authentication mechanisms
• Solid understanding of responsive design across desktop, tablet, and mobile devices
• Working knowledge of SEO best practices, performance optimization, and testing methodologies
• Experience integrating and supporting eCommerce systems and third-party platforms
• Ability to think strategically while executing with strong attention to detail
• Highly motivated self-starter and problem-solver, comfortable operating in a fast-paced, collaborative environment
• Excellent verbal and written communication skills
• Ability to communicate clearly with both technical and non-technical stakeholders and provide proactive feedback

Preferred / Nice-to-Have Qualifications

• Experience with B2B eCommerce, including wholesale workflows, customer-specific pricing, and complex catalogs
• Familiarity with headless commerce, custom storefronts, or modern JavaScript frameworks
• Experience integrating Shopify with ERP, CRM, or PIM platforms
• Exposure to CI/CD pipelines, version control systems, and cloud-based hosting environments
