​​Looking for Philippines-based candidates

Job Role: Senior Shopify Plus Developer

Work Schedule: This role is expected to align with the AU business hours (approx. 9 AM - 6 PM, Monday to Friday)

Compensation range: $2,000 AUD - $3,000 AUD / Monthly (before tax and deductions)

Who We Are: At Hunt St, we help Australian companies hire top remote talent in the Philippines. For this role, you will be formally employed through an Employer of Record (EOR) arrangement. We are not an outsourcing agency. All of our roles are 100% remote, so you’ll be able to work from home.

Who The Client Is: Our client is an established Australian digital commerce consultancy that helps retailers and consumer brands build, improve, and scale their online businesses. They combine technical development, digital strategy, and customer experience expertise to deliver tailored e-commerce solutions, integrations, and ongoing platform improvements. With growing demand for online store development, they are expanding their technical capabilities to support a diverse range of projects and clients.

Role Overview: The Shopify Developer is a senior, hands-on developer who builds and ships Shopify work to a high standard, working to direction set by a Shopify Tech Lead (STL). This is a delivery role rather than a consulting one: the Developer does not own scoping, solutioning with the client, or the client relationship. They own the quality, accuracy and timeliness of what they build.

The role is expected to be deeply capable on Shopify Plus: Liquid and theme architecture, the Plus extension surfaces including Checkout UI Extensions and Customer Account Extensions, Functions, Markets, and the Storefront and Admin APIs. Hydrogen and React experience is valuable where middleware, an API proxy layer or headless components form part of a solution.

The Developer works within scope that has already been defined, but is not expected to consume a ticket passively. They estimate it honestly, interrogate it for gaps, ambiguity and hidden dependencies before starting, flag anything that looks like scope movement, and test their own work properly before it leaves their hands.

Client communication sits with the Shopify Tech Lead and the Project Manager. The Developer is not client-facing, but is expected to be an excellent communicator internally: clear written updates, early flags, and the confidence to challenge a task that does not make sense.

This role does not own: client relationships or client communication, scoping and requirements definition, solution architecture, commercial estimates issued to the client, or project coordination. Those sit with the Shopify Tech Lead, the Shopify Solution Architect and the Project Manager.

Key Responsibilities:

Development Delivery

• Build Shopify storefront, theme, app and integration work to the agreed technical approach, meeting the client’s coding standards and the client's acceptance criteria.
• Work from scope and solutions defined by the Shopify Tech Lead or Solution Architect. Deliver to that design, and surface any point where it does not survive contact with implementation.
• Deliver across BAU support, dedicated team retainers, mini projects and implementation projects, understanding that the engagement model changes the process and the tolerance for scope movement.
• Fix defects raised in QA, UAT and post-go-live on o
