About the role

  • Shopify Integration Engineer at Recurly managing integrations between Shopify and its subscription platform. Extensive TypeScript and Shopify expertise required.

Responsibilities

  • Design and build Shopify app integrations — public, custom, and embedded — using TypeScript and Shopify's latest APIs (Admin REST & GraphQL, App Bridge, Checkout Extensions).
  • Improve end-to-end subscription flows that bridge Shopify's checkout with Recurly Commerce's subscription lifecycle management.
  • Develop and maintain Shopify Functions, Checkout UI extensions, and Theme App Extensions to deliver seamless subscriber experiences.
  • Evolve the webhook infrastructure that keeps Shopify order/customer data in sync with Recurly's platform in real time.
  • Lead merchant migrations from third-party billing platforms — including Recharge, Appstle, Bold Subscriptions, and Skio — to Recurly Commerce, including data mapping, subscriber record transfer, and cutover coordination.
  • Serve as the internal authority on Shopify's evolving platform: app review requirements, Partner program policies, Shopify Markets, B2B Commerce, and Checkout extensibility.
  • Monitor Shopify changelog and platform announcements; proactively identify breaking changes and lead mitigation efforts before they impact merchants.
  • Define and document integration patterns, best practices, and runbooks for the Commerce engineering team.
  • Work directly with strategic merchant accounts during onboarding to scope, configure, and troubleshoot their Shopify + Recurly Commerce integration.
  • Collaborate with Recurly's Solutions Engineering and Customer Success teams to translate merchant requirements into robust technical implementations.
  • Contribute to developer documentation, code samples, and Shopify-specific guides that accelerate merchant self-service.
  • Write well-tested, well-typed TypeScript code; champion code review practices and shared engineering standards across the team.
  • Instrument integrations with observability tooling (logging, tracing, alerting) and own incident response for integration-layer issues.
  • Optimize for performance and reliability at scale — Shopify flash sales, subscription renewal spikes, and burst traffic are part of the job.

Requirements

  • 5+ years of software engineering experience, with at least 2 years focused on Shopify app or integration development.
  • Deep hands-on expertise with Shopify's API surface: Admin API (REST & GraphQL), Storefront API, Webhooks, Checkout Extensions, and App Bridge.
  • Strong TypeScript proficiency — you default to strong typing and treat type safety as a feature, not an afterthought.
  • Demonstrated experience building Node.js backend services, REST or GraphQL APIs, and event-driven/webhook architectures.
  • Familiarity with Shopify's app review, Partner Dashboard workflows, and the requirements for listing in the Shopify App Store.
  • Solid understanding of OAuth 2.0, HMAC verification, and the security considerations unique to Shopify app authentication.
  • Experience with subscription billing concepts: recurring charges, dunning, proration, trial periods, and lifecycle state machines.

Benefits

  • As a full-time employee, we offer competitive benefits programs and perks designed to fit your needs and the needs of your family.
  • Recurly is an equal opportunity employer and all qualified applicants will receive consideration for employment without regard to gender, age, race, religion, or any other classification which is protected by applicable law.
