URGENT: Shopify Developer for Site Build Update (From Existing Design System)

Other Jobs To Apply

We have a fully designed, locked-in front-end homepage for our Shopify store, built out in Figma with complete desktop and mobile specs. We need a Shopify developer to extend that visual system across the rest of the site and build the whole thing out live.

This isn't a design job- the look is decided. We need someone who can read a design system fluently, apply it with precision to pages and components we haven't detailed yet, and turn all of it into a working site through Shopify.

SCOPE

Extend the homepage's visual language (typography, color, spacing, components) across all remaining pages: product pages, collection/category pages, cart, navigation and dropdown menus, search, footer, 404, and any pop-ups or modals (newsletter capture, promotions, etc.)

File build-out in Figma so our in-house team can approve before development begins

Build everything out in Shopify using sections/blocks so our team can update content post-launch without a developer

Fully responsive, matching the desktop and mobile specs provided in Figma

Cross-browser and cross-device QA before launch

Set live on our Shopify store

WHAT WE WILL PROVIDE

Figma file with the locked homepage design (desktop and mobile)

Brand packet / guidelines / asset library

Access to our Shopify backend and current theme

TECHNICAL REQUIREMENTS

Strong hands-on experience with Shopify Liquid and Online Store 2.0 theme architecture (sections, blocks, metafields)

Track record customizing or building Shopify themes from a design file, not just installing templates

Solid HTML/CSS/JS and responsive build skills

Experience with Figma, Dropbox, and Google Suite

Comfortable translating Figma specs into pixel-accurate, production-ready code

WHO WE NEED

A developer with a genuine eye for visual detail and UI principles, someone who protects the integrity of the design while flagging real technical constraints early rather than after the fact

A team player who takes direction well, adjusts when priorities shift, and doesn't get precious about it

Clear, proactive communicator who can explain and defend technical decisions without over-explaining

TIMELINE & BUDGET

We're looking to go live within 2-4 weeks. Please confirm your availability to start immediately and realistically commit to that window before applying. We are open to either a fixed price for the full project or an hourly rate. Please propose the structure and rate that best fits your workflow, along with a rough estimate of hours or total cost based on the scope above.

TO APPLY

Please start your proposal with the word “ZJ” so we know you read the full post.

Include:

2-3 links to live Shopify stores you've built end-to-end

Your proposed rate/budget structure

A one or two sentence note on how you'd approach translating a locked Figma design into a build-ready theme in this timeframe
