Full Time
Professional Services
Mid Level

Miva is currently looking for a full-stack Web Developer with solid solution engineering skills and deep ecommerce experience to join Miva’s Professional Services team. This role focuses on building high-performing ecommerce experiences on the Miva platform using core web technologies—no heavy frameworks, just solid engineering fundamentals enhanced by modern AI tooling.

This is a client-facing delivery role, not an internal product or R&D position. The chosen Web Developer will collaborate closely with Product Managers, UX Designers, and other delivery team members to translate business requirements and user needs into high-performing solutions that adhere to defined scope and timelines and maximize platform capabilities. As a key technical liaison, you will communicate effectively with clients in both written and verbal forms and translating complex technical concepts into clear, actionable guidance for non-technical stakeholders.
 

AI-Driven Development | We are an AI-first web development team. You’ll be expected to:

  • Use AI tools for rapid prototyping, first-pass code generation, and workflow automation
  • Accelerate integrations, data transformations, and repetitive development tasks with AI assistance
  • Leverage AI for documentation, code reviews, testing, and performance optimization
  • Maintain high code quality while using AI as a force multiplier—not a crutch
Things you will do:
  • Develop and maintain ecommerce storefronts using HTML5, CSS3, and modern vanilla JavaScript (ES6+) within Miva’s templating environment
  • Write efficient server-side logic using Miva Template Language (MVT) to power dynamic content
  • Build and support integrations with external systems (REST/SOAP APIs, ERPs, CRMs, payment, shipping, analytics, and marketing tools)
  • Act as the technical bridge between client storefronts and their broader business ecosystem
  • Troubleshoot and resolve frontend, backend, and configuration issues across platforms
  • Optimize performance, SEO, accessibility, and conversion (Core Web Vitals, GA4, GTM, etc.)
  • Implement merchandising strategies, personalization, promotions, and optimized purchase flows
  • Ensure cross-browser/device compatibility with a mobile-first approach
  • Collaborate with Product Managers, UX Designers, and delivery teams to execute within scope and timelines
  • Communicate clearly with clients, translating technical concepts into actionable insights
Things you will bring:
  • 3+ years of professional web development experience (1+ year in ecommerce)
  • Strong proficiency in HTML5, CSS3, and vanilla JavaScript (ES6+)
  • Advanced mastery of AI coding assistants (e.g., GitHub Copilot, Cursor, Claude Code) integrated into daily development workflows to accelerate output without sacrificing underlying code quality or engineering fundamentals
  • Ability to write CSS that works across browsers without relying on CSS-in-JS libraries
  • Experience building API integrations (REST and/or SOAP)
  • Working knowledge of PHP and SQL-based databases (MySQL/PostgreSQL)
  • Strong understanding of DOM manipulation without relying on libraries
  • Experience with Git-based workflows, including experience with AI-enhanced pull request generation, merge conflict resolution, and automated commit messaging
  • Solid grasp of performance optimization, SEO, and accessibility (WCAG)
  • Ability to manage multiple projects in a client-facing delivery environment
  • Strong communication skills in a remote, collaborative setting

Bonus points if you have:

  • Experience with platforms like Miva, Shopify, BigCommerce, or Magento
  • Familiarity with ERPs/CRMs (NetSuite, Salesforce, Microsoft Dynamics, etc.)
  • Experience with build tools (Webpack or similar) and modern PHP frameworks (Laravel) with a focus on MVC design patterns, RESTful API development, and scalable backend architecture
  • Experience using containerization or local development tooling such as Docker
  • Agency or Professional Services experience
  • Experience building AI automation scripts, leveraging LLM APIs directly, or integrating AI agents into CI/CD deployment pipelines and testing workflows

Our awesome perks! 

  • Remote company - work from anywhere
  • Unlimited PTO  
  • Maternity/Paternity leave  
  • Medical/Dental/Vision/FSA/Life  
  • 401k with company match
  • Flexible work schedule

Why are you being asked to complete this form?

We are a federal contractor or subcontractor. The law requires us to provide equal employment opportunity to qualified people with disabilities. We have a goal of having at least 7% of our workers as people with disabilities. The law says we must measure our progress towards this goal. To do this, we must ask applicants and employees if they have a disability or have ever had one. People can become disabled, so we need to ask this question at least every five years.

Completing this form is voluntary, and we hope that you will choose to do so. Your answer is confidential. No one who makes hiring decisions will see it. Your decision to complete the form and your answer will not harm you in any way. If you want to learn more about the law or this form, visit the U.S. Department of Labor’s Office of Federal Contract Compliance Programs (OFCCP) website at www.dol.gov/ofccp.
