Backend Technical Lead
Domaine · Full-time · Posted 3w ago
Meet Domaine, the world's largest independent Shopify design and development partner, formed by the union of Half Helix and Tomorrow. We are a team of commerce experts dedicated to creating, building, and growing beloved brands. As pioneers and not just participants in our industry, we are inspired to write, break, and re-write the rules for a new generation of commerce.
We are looking for an experienced backend Tech Lead, which is a client-facing role with plenty of hands-on development and ownership over our technical approaches and estimates. In this role, you bring a proven ability to ship production-ready code in an agency environment, often with requirements that are somewhat open-ended. You share accountability for the success of your projects and growth of your teammates. At this stage in your career, you’ve seen most common Shopify integration patterns and are comfortable tackling novel problems while trying to anticipate risk. You recognize that there is always more to learn, and actively look for feedback on your solutions and ask for opinions and support early.
This role helps large, mature “enterprise” brands migrate to Shopify, and will require experience with common systems in this space (ERP, OMS, IMS, PIM, POS, etc) and the common integration workstreams: order management lifecycles, product data models, data migrations, omni-channel and payments. This is a big space, so some on-the-job learning is expected, but tangible experience in some of these areas is critical, including being able to evaluate when off-the-shelf vs custom is appropriate.
This role is also open to candidates outside of North America in locations where Domaine can legally employ, provided they are able to work U.S. Eastern Time Zone hours.
RESPONSIBILITIES
Development
You can design and implement reliable, efficient, and secure integrations using PHP/Laravel or JS/Node. Your expertise includes optimizing databases and queues, and generally how your infrastructure choices affect throughput and reliability. You ensure projects are well tested, and can implement a solid CI/CD pipeline.
Client Relations
You can think on your feet, communicating complex technical concepts to clients and negotiating on requirements, resources, timelines, and scope in order to protect overall project success. You are solution-focused, making use of technical calls, emails, written documentation, diagrams, or any means necessary to ensure the client has what they need to succeed. You can provide timely advice on how to integrate with Shopify, offering insights on middleware architecture and design principles.
Project Leadership
You can clearly communicate the status of a project as a whole, and raise challenges or uncertainty early. You assist with development timelines and in grooming, assigning, and releasing work. You supervise the team’s output and can spot when someone needs guidance, helping others to solve problems collaboratively through paired programming and quality code reviews.
