About the job
Join Our Mission at Tin Can
At Tin Can, we are revolutionizing the way children connect with their loved ones — all without smartphones. Our mission is to create engaging, screen-free devices and services that allow families to communicate with the people who matter most, free from the distractions of today's digital landscape.
We are a bold, authentic, and slightly quirky brand that appeals to those seeking a simpler and better alternative for their children amidst an increasingly tech-driven world. As we prepare to expand our reach to thousands of families, we are looking for an exceptional engineer to join our dynamic team.
The Opportunity
We are in search of a Senior Software Engineer to take charge of our Shopify storefront and its supporting systems as we grow. This role is pivotal in how families discover and purchase Tin Can products, presenting numerous opportunities for enhancement and innovation. You will collaborate closely with our founding team to make our storefront and growth initiatives more effective, adaptable, and easier to refine. Your responsibilities will encompass everything from optimizing the Shopify user experience to enhancing the infrastructure that supports experimentation, all aimed at delivering impactful results swiftly.
This hands-on, high-trust position requires you to build and maintain our storefront, facilitate rapid experimentation, and support growth efforts such as landing page testing and international expansion. You will also contribute to backend and platform tasks as priorities evolve. While extensive prior experience isn’t mandatory, comfort with ambiguity, quick learning, and ownership of diverse challenges are essential traits we value.
Your Responsibilities
- Take ownership and innovate our Shopify storefront and its surrounding systems.
- Enable swift experimentation through robust A/B testing frameworks and iterative landing page designs.
- Drive growth initiatives focused on improving conversion rates.
- Develop and maintain integrations with third-party services within our growth and payment infrastructure.
- Analyze and interpret experimental results to guide product and business strategies.
- Facilitate international expansion through localization, payment adaptations, and operational adjustments.
- Collaborate across backend and platform systems as priorities shift.
- Enhance system reliability, scalability, and operational efficiency as we expand.
- Ensure that all developments prioritize safety and data privacy.
