Hey everyone
I’m looking for a Shopify developer to work with on an ongoing basis.
Most of the work is Shopify store development, theme customization, app integrations, bug fixes, and general store improvements. If you’ve got solid Shopify experience and are looking for long-term work, I’d love to chat.
No need for a big sales pitch Just send me a quick intro, your experience, and a few examples of stores you’ve worked on.
You can reach me at zacharyfontana936@gmail.com
Thanks!
Hi Zachary,
Ongoing store work is a different animal from one off projects, and the
part that usually goes wrong is not the code. It is that theme edits
pile up over months until nobody remembers which change broke what,
especially once a few apps start injecting their own scripts.
The way I handle that is boring but it works. Every change goes into a
duplicated theme first, gets checked on mobile and desktop, then gets
published, and I keep a short running log of what changed and why. Six
months in you still have a store someone can actually maintain.
Quick background so you know who you are talking to. I am a full stack
developer and I build e-commerce systems end to end, including a multi
vendor marketplace with separate admin, vendor and customer dashboards.
So when something on your list needs real custom work rather than
another paid app on top, that is the side I am strongest on. A lot of
recurring app costs can be replaced with code you own outright. I also
work with a small team, so things do not stall if the workload spikes
or something needs a second pair of hands.
Here is what I would suggest. Pick the smallest thing on your list, the
one you keep putting off, and let me do that one first as a paid task.
You get to judge actual work instead of a forum reply, and if it is not
a fit, nothing lost on either side.
What is the store running on right now, and roughly how many hours a
month were you thinking?

Hi Zach, I’m José Manuel (Level Up Design). 15+ years in ecommerce and Shopify is my daily work: theme customisation in Liquid, app and API integrations, and clearing the bug-fix backlog that never quite gets done. I’m happy with an ongoing arrangement where you send tasks and they get shipped. Quick intro and store examples on request: sarbat@gmail.com — levelupdesign.es
Nice to hear from you
Could you share your CV and Linkedin profile?
Hi Zach — happy to share that. Portfolio: levelupdesign.es · Malt profile (that’s my live CV, work history and reviews): malt.es/profile/josemanuelrodriguezdepaco · LinkedIn: linkedin.com/in/jose-manuel-rodriguez-de-paco · email sarbat@gmail.com. If you tell me what you need first (theme work, app integrations, bugs or speed), I can point you to the closest examples and give you a more specific answer.
Hi Zachary,
You asked for a CV and LinkedIn profile. I don’t have either, and I’d rather be straight about that than pretend I have a track record I don’t.
PixelForge is new. I have no client reviews or past client stores to point you to. The projects I’ve built so far are my own concepts, and I won’t present them as client work.
So instead of asking you to take my word for it, I’d suggest something you can actually judge:
Tell me the one bug on your store that’s been annoying you longest. I’ll fix that one free, before there’s any arrangement between us.
• I work on a duplicated theme, never your live store.
• You get a preview and test it yourself.
• Staff/Collaborator access only, never your password.
• You get a plain-English explanation of what was wrong and what I changed.
• If you’re not impressed, we stop. Nothing owed.
You haven’t posted your store URL, so if you’d rather not give access yet, just post the URL here. I’ll tell you what I can verify publicly and clearly separate that from anything I can’t check without access.
You mentioned ongoing work. I’d rather prove the bug-fixing part first, it’s something you can judge in minutes instead of taking my word for it.
If you’re open to that, give me the URL or tell me the fault that’s been bothering you most.
