The challenge
PEP and Ackermans run national retail operations online, with huge product catalogues, frequent campaign changes and complex merchandising rules, all on traffic that peaks hard around promotions.
What I built
Led the development of the Shopify Plus storefronts with reusable Liquid sections, blocks and metafield-driven components so merchandisers can launch and change content without developer time, alongside app and API integrations and checkout work.
The outcome
Stable, fast storefronts that support enterprise traffic and let the retail teams merchandise across a large catalogue at speed.
Highlights
- Lead developer on an enterprise Shopify Plus account
- Metafield-driven architecture for complex merchandising
- Performance, UX and checkout optimisation for high-revenue trading
