Web Developer: Shopify & WordPress

Company: Artivo Surfaces India

Type: Full-time • (WORK FROM OFFICE)

Hours: Must overlap at least 4 hours/day with U.S. Eastern Time (target 9:0011:00 AM ET)

Reports to: Web & Integrations Lead (U.S.)

About us

Artivo Surfaces is a growing U.S. e-commerce company running a portfolio of brand websites on Shopify and WordPress. Our India team, Artivo Surfaces India, works as a direct extension of the U.S. team.

About the role

We're hiring a hands-on Web Developer to own our sites day to day: building and maintaining themes, shipping new pages and features, keeping the sites fast and stable, and fixing production issues as they come up.

You'll report directly to our U.S. Web & Integrations Lead and work closely with our marketing team, who drive most of the day-to-day requests: new landing pages, promotions, content updates, campaign tracking, and email templates.

This is a high-throughput, ticket-driven role for someone who enjoys variety. One day you're converting a design into a Shopify theme, the next you're debugging a product feed sync, building a WordPress template, setting up campaign tracking, or chasing down a checkout bug. You'll own your work end to end, from requirement to production.

This is a developer role, not a site-admin role. Beyond theme and content work, our sites run on product data feeds, API integrations, and scheduled jobs that you'll maintain and extend.

What you'll do

Shopify development

• Build and maintain Liquid themes: sections, blocks, templates, menus, footers, banners, and landing pages.
• Convert designs (Figma or similar) into responsive Online Store 2.0 themes with reusable sections.
• Work with metafields/metaobjects, product pages, collections, search, cart, and account/wishlist UI.
• Set up and configure new storefronts as the business launches new brands.

WordPress development

• Build and maintain custom themes and templates using PHP and Advanced Custom Fields (ACF).
• Keep sites healthy: manage plugins, run theme/plugin/PHP updates, and handle caching/CDN and performance.
• Handle site migrations and hosting moves when needed.

Marketing & campaign support

• Build campaign landing pages, promo banners, and seasonal content on quick turnarounds.
• Set up and verify tracking: GA4 events, Google Tag Manager containers, and Meta/Google ad pixels.
• Support basic A/B tests and conversion experiments on landing pages and key flows.

Integrations & automation

• Maintain and debug product data feed syncs between our PIM (Salsify) and the storefronts, including image and spec-sheet pipelines.
• Build and maintain REST/JSON API integrations (ERP order submission, CRM forms, tax and shipping services).
• Maintain scheduled jobs and small Shopify apps that move data between systems.

Content, merchandising & maintenance

• Publish new collections, products, images, spec sheets, and menu/landing-page updates.
• Pull and apply product content from data feeds and APIs, and fix display/data mismatches.

Bug fixing & QA

• Diagnose and resolve production issues across search, cart, checkout, login/accounts, forms, and UI.
• Test your own work before QA and turn around fixes quickly.

Required skills

• 3+ years building and maintaining production Shopify and WordPress sites.
• Experience managing multiple sites/brands at once: juggling tickets, updates, and deployments across a portfolio, not a single storefront.
• Shopify: strong Liquid templating, Online Store 2.0 sections/blocks, metafields/metaobjects, theme customization, and Shopify CLI; working knowledge of the Admin/Storefront API.
• WordPress: solid PHP, custom theme/template development, ACF, plugin management, and safe maintenance of live sites.
• Front-end: fluent HTML, CSS/SCSS, and JavaScript (including jQuery in legacy contexts); responsive, mobile-first development; cross-browser debugging.
• Tracking & analytics: hands-on with GA4 and Google Tag Manager; experience installing and debugging ad pixels (Meta, Google).
• Performance: page speed and Core Web Vitals optimization on live sites.

Integrations: experience building and debugging REST/JSON API integrations and product data feed syncs; comfortable with webhooks, cron/scheduled jobs, and basic SQL.

• Comfortable reading and taking over an existing codebase.
• Git-based workflow, staging-to-production deployments, and clean, documented code.

AI development tooling: works efficiently with tools like Claude Code to increase ticket throughput, and knows how to review and verify AI-generated code before shipping.

• Strong written English, reliable daily communication, and accurate time estimates on tickets.
• Able to manage requests from multiple stakeholders, prioritize, and work independently across time zones.

Nice to have

• Magento / Adobe Commerce experience.
• React experience (components, hooks, modern build tooling).
• Headless development: Shopify Hydrogen/Storefront API or headless WordPress with a JS front end.
• Technical SEO and structured-data schema.
• PIM experience (Salsify or similar) and product data syndication.
• Shopify app development (custom apps, Admin API, webhooks).
• Hosted CDN setups (Fastly or similar) and WP Engine hosting.
