Headless E-Commerce Architektur

A new trend in e-commerce is stores where the frontend consists of a single-page application. For this, we use React and Next.js. It would be great if you already have experience in this area, but it is not a must-have.

Shopify Apps (Plugins)

Extensions for Shopify are called Shopify Apps. These are plugins used to expand the system with new features. We develop these in the backend with Ruby on Rails and in the frontend with React. This includes both our own Shopify apps as well as plugins for other software providers and merchants.

• Architect and develop sophisticated Shopify frontend solutions for our clients
• Develop and optimize custom Shopify themes using modern technologies
• Implement headless commerce solutions with Shopify Hydrogen and React / Next.js
• Work closely with UI / UX designers, backend developers, and clients to meet complex requirements
• Integrate APIs and third-party services (e.g., payment, search, CRM, PIM, ERP)
• Optimize load times, SEO, and performance in line with Core Web Vitals
• Ensure accessibility (WCAG 2.1) for inclusive and user-friendly online stores
• Conduct code reviews and implement automated tests

Must-have

• Extensive experience with Shopify (Liquid, Shopify CLI, Shopify API)
• React (especially for headless Shopify applications)
• Shopify Hydrogen and Storefront API
• Experience with e-commerce technologies and best practices
• Understanding of accessibility (ARIA, WCAG 2.1, Lighthouse Accessibility Scores)
• Knowledge of UX / UI and experience with design tools like Figma
• Fluent in German or English (spoken and written)
• Residence within the EU

Nice-to-have

• Experience with Tailwind CSS or Styled Components
• Basic knowledge of Ruby on Rails (for modifying Shopify functionalities)
• Knowledge of GraphQL (Shopify Storefront API, Admin API)
• Experience in performance optimization for Shopify themes
