Scale our MVP products — specifically our Shopify–ERP integration platform and Profit Analytics
Integrate various systems with Shopify (CRMs, ERPs, middleware)
Consult and design technical solutions for our clients

ERP integrations on Shopify are a brand new offering in our portfolio and are opening doors to enterprise-level clients.

Profit Analytics is a service we’re currently transforming into a standalone product – so you’ll have the opportunity to help shape and build a real SaaS product from the ground up.

Become an expert in Shopify, the world’s leading e-commerce platform
Gain full-stack experience with opportunities to work across frontend and DevOps
Work in a fully remote environment, with flexible scheduling and an async-first culture

Requirements

Experience with at least two commercial projects developed in Python
Solid knowledge of at least one Python web framework (e.g. Django, Flask, FastAPI)
Working knowledge of RESTful and GraphQL APIs, webhooks, and authentication flows
Familiarity with PostgreSQL, Redis, and Celery is a strong plus
Git fluency, automated testing, and a performance-aware mindset
Willingness to contribute to frontend and infrastructure topics
Good communication skills — ability to talk to non-technical stakeholders and clients
Fluent in Czech & English (written & spoken)
Previous Shopify experience is appreciated but not required
Proactive mindset – you’re not waiting for tickets, you’re solving problems

Backend: Python, Django, PostgreSQL, Redis

Why join us

We are no startup, "business as usual" company, or even corporate. We are a dynamic company that combines the best from each world. A company where people enjoy working and create value.

If you're interested in e-commerce, you will have the opportunity to cooperate with experts from companies like Google or Gen.
The apps and online stores that we create have a significant impact on the businesses of our partners, often seen immediately. We are confident in our ability to provide additional value and enhance the overall success of our clients.
We operate as a truly remote-first and async-first company, allowing you to choose your place and time for work. We care about outputs and results.

We know your time is precious and are strong believers in efficient and brisk recruitment. That’s why our hiring process is online end-to-end:

Our first chat will be an intro call, where we’ll outline Digismoothie as a company and the projects that are currently underway.
Then you’ll get a practical assignment, which will give you a better idea of what your job would be like, along with a chance to demonstrate your talent and strengths.
The final step is meeting the team, discussing your solution and answering any remaining questions.

It’s worth mentioning that every role is different, and that can be reflected in the hiring process. What goes without saying, on the other hand, is that we put high value on honesty and transparency.
