solutions that empower all teams at Shopify to build powerful and
resilient distributed cloud software. Merchants that depend on
Shopify for a highly scalable, performant, and reliable platform
benefit directly from the work you do. You will maintain a high bar

you'll be hands-on in the code and--contribute technically. Here

teams deploy new code many times a day, and our production scale is
massive. We're talking millions of online stores, and hundreds of
millions of requests a day. Thousands of entrepreneurs will see
your work within seconds - a difficult but incredibly rewarding
responsibility. Shopify is the largest Ruby on Rails application in
the world and we're a big part of the Rails community. We're

features for our apps. You'll work on large-scale apps that are
ever-changing, enabling entrepreneurship for hundreds of thousands
of entrepreneurs. Our Android engineers use Kotlin and our iOS
engineers use Swift. Our teams are increasingly working with React
Native so openness to cross-platform mobile development is a plus!
Front End Development Our Front End Engineers collaborate closely
with software engineering teams, designers, product managers, and
marketers to not only build incredible merchant-facing products and
marketing campaigns, but also engineer-facing tools. You'll use the
latest web standards in HTML, CSS, and JavaScript, and modern
technologies and frameworks like Typescript, React, GraphQL, Apollo
and Ruby on Rails, to develop large front-end web applications and
websites that scale and perform well on all devices. You'll work
across disciplines and are excited about building human-centered
experiences. Front End Development exists across all of Shopify,
from Product to Marketing, working closely with the teams that
create performant experiences and communicate Shopify's impact on
commerce to a global audience. You may also collaborate with our
Data and SEO teams, helping us make data informed decisions and
driving additional new merchant acquisition. You might focus on
creating thoughtful interfaces for our users, shaping our design
language, and contributing to our shared component libraries in a
maintainable and scalable way. Qualifications What you'll do as a
