Shopify Developer

About the role

We're looking for a skilled Shopify Developer to join our team and help deliver high-quality builds across everything we do.

You'll work across a range of work — from full theme builds and large-scale redesigns to section-level development, landing pages, and CRO test implementations. You'll translate high-fidelity Figma designs into accurate, production-ready Shopify code, working closely with designers, CRO specialists, and account managers with a focus on performance, scalability, and attention to detail.

About That Works

We're not trying to be the biggest Shopify agency in the world, just the best.

That Works is a performance-focused Shopify agency working with high-growth DTC brands across CRO, design, and custom theme builds. We partner with ambitious e-commerce brands and care deeply about how development quality, CRO thinking, and execution standards directly impact revenue.

What you'll be doing

Shopify development

• Build across a variety of work: full Shopify theme builds, section development, landing pages, and CRO test implementations
• Translate high-fidelity Figma designs into accurate, production-ready Shopify themes and sections
• Build with CRO, performance, and scalability in mind
• Ensure development aligns closely with design intent and UX decisions

Modern Shopify practices

• Work primarily within Shopify 2.0 and the Horizon framework
• Apply best practices for modern Shopify development
• Adapt quickly as Shopify's ecosystem and tooling evolves

CRO-aware execution

• Understand the intent behind CRO-led designs
• Build components and sections that support experimentation and iteration
• Collaborate with CRO specialists to ensure implementations support testing and optimisation

Technical expectations

• Modern Shopify theme development practices
• Horizon framework concepts and implementation
• GitHub and version control workflows
• Non-destructive development practices
• Clean, maintainable, and scalable code

Attention to detail (non-negotiable)

• Designs are created in Figma and must be implemented faithfully
• Builds should feel like a one-to-one translation of the design intent
• Spacing, layout, interactions, and responsiveness all matter

AI-assisted development

We are an AI-first agency and actively encourage responsible use of AI to improve efficiency and quality.

We're particularly interested in developers who:

• Actively experiment with AI-assisted development workflows
• Use tools such as Cursor, Claude, or similar to speed up problem-solving
• Treat AI as an aid, not a replacement for good engineering

You are:

• A mid-to-senior Shopify developer
• Comfortable working across different types of output — full builds, sections, CRO implementations
• A strong problem solver who can adapt when requirements evolve
• Detail-oriented and quality-driven
• Reliable, communicative, and deadline-focused

You have:

• Proven experience developing for Shopify
• Strong knowledge of the Shopify ecosystem
• Experience collaborating with designers and CRO teams
• Experience working to defined scopes and timelines

• Annual team trip abroad
• Occasional UK meetups
• Opportunity to work across a diverse range of high-profile DTC brands
