Role Summary
Were hiring a part-time E-commerce Developer to build and look after Shopify and WooCommerce stores
for our clients, from new store launches and theme customization to integrations, performance tuning and
ongoing fixes.
Youll take requests from client and Idaya teams, turn them into clean, tested changes, and keep stores
fast, secure and easy for clients to run themselves. This is a hands-on, flexible-hours role for an
experienced developer who can work independently and deliver on agreed timelines.
What Youll Do
Build and launch stores. Set up Shopify and WooCommerce stores end to end: products,
collections, variants, shipping, taxes, payments and checkout.
Customize themes. Develop and modify themes with Liquid (Shopify) and PHP, HTML, CSS and
JavaScript (WordPress/WooCommerce), building responsive, on-brand pages and sections.
Extend functionality. Configure and customize apps and plugins, and build custom features where
off-the-shelf options fall short.
Integrate systems. Connect stores to ERP, CRM, inventory, payment and marketing tools through
APIs, webhooks and middleware, including Shopify Admin/Storefront APIs and the WooCommerce
REST API.
Keep stores fast and found. Improve page speed and Core Web Vitals, and apply technical SEO
best practices.
Keep stores secure and stable. Manage updates, backups, staging-to-production releases, and fixes
for bugs and broken checkouts.
Support clients. Turn client requests into scoped tasks, give realistic estimates, and show clients how
to manage day-to-day store content themselves.
