About the Role

DermaQuest Inc is a professional skincare brand with over 20 years in the
industry, offering science-backed products to both retail consumers and
licensed estheticians across the country. We're looking for a skilled Shopify
Developer to help maintain and grow our eCommerce storefront, ensuring a
seamless shopping experience across our DTC and B2B channels. This is a
part-time remote role ideal for someone who can work independently, move
quickly, and take ownership of storefront quality during a focused 4-hour daily
shift.

Responsibilities

1. Maintain and
   enhance the DermaQuest Shopify storefront, ensuring all pages,
   collections, and product listings are up to date and functioning
   correctly.
   
2. Develop and
   customize Shopify themes using Liquid, HTML, CSS, and JavaScript to match
   brand standards across DTC and professional-facing experiences.
   
3. Build and
   maintain custom sections, templates, and metafields to support marketing
   campaigns, new product launches, and seasonal promotions.
   
4. Integrate and
   manage third-party Shopify apps (e.g., spa locator, subscription/recurring
   purchase, reviews) and troubleshoot any conflicts or issues.
   
5. Collaborate
   with the marketing team to implement landing pages, collection updates,
   and homepage banner changes on a regular cadence.
   
6. Optimize
   storefront performance — page speed, Core Web Vitals, and mobile
   responsiveness — to support SEO and conversion goals.
   
7. Support the
   B2B/pro portal (dermaquestpro.com) with any Shopify-related development
   needs and cross-site consistency.
   
8. Monitor and
   resolve bugs, broken links, checkout issues, and any storefront errors in
   a timely manner.
   
9. Implement and
   test Shopify Scripts, discount logic, and checkout customizations as
   needed for promotions and customer segmentation.
   
10. Assist with
    product data management including tagging, variant setup, metafields, and
    bulk imports/exports.
    

Day-to-Day Duties

1. Log in at 9:00
   AM PT and review any overnight bugs, broken assets, or urgent storefront
   issues flagged by the team.
   
2. Pick up and
   execute tickets from the task queue — ranging from theme edits and new
   section builds to app configurations and content updates.
   
3. Sync briefly
   with the internal team (marketing, ops, or management) via Slack or email
   to align on priorities, campaign timelines, or pending launches.
   
4. Test all
   changes in a staging/dev environment before pushing to production,
   ensuring nothing breaks on mobile, desktop, or across browsers.
   
5. Document
   completed work, code changes, and any known issues or technical debt to
   keep the team informed and maintain continuity.
