Sanctuary Computer — Development At Sanctuary Computer we’re building a different type of technology shop – one that prioritizes close collaboration between the client and the craftsperson.
Our projects range from design-forward websites, to robust web apps, to native mobile development.
XXIX — Design When we started XXIX in 2013, we set out to create a different kind of design studio and we’ve thrived because we continually ask what a creative practice can be.
We’re building a radically different kind of organization that values autonomy, growth, transparency, and shared responsibility.

🔮 Who we’re looking for:
We're looking for a Senior Shopify Developer who balances deep e-commerce expertise with modern frontend engineering. You'll build pixel-perfect, hyper-performant storefronts ranging from custom Liquid themes to headless Hydrogen/Next.js implementations working alongside our design team to create world-class shopping experiences.
In this role, you’ll work across a variety of client projects to find cost-effective, high-quality, and pragmatic solutions to complex e-commerce challenges. Responsibilities will include:
The person we’re looking for is happy, relaxed and easy to get along with. They’re flexible on anything except conceits that will lower their usually outstanding work quality. They work “smart”, by carefully managing their workflow and staggering features that have dependencies intelligently. They prefer deep work but are OK coming up to the surface now and then for top level / strategic conversations.
We believe people with backgrounds or interests in design, art, music, food or fashion tend to have a well rounded sense of design & quality, so a variety of hobbies or side projects is a big nice to have!
🔑 Must-Have Competencies:
We’re always pitching for new and exciting technology niches. Some of the areas below are relevant to us!
💪 Nice-to-Have Competencies:
💸 Compensation
Our pay scale ranges from $40/hr to $120/hr pending seniority (& team leadership experience), and our projects are rarely less than 8 full time weeks at 40 hours per week.
We prefer long standing relationships with highly accountable and communicative team members, so we encourage candidates to expect longer term engagements.
🎤 How we interview
After you submit your application, a member of our team will reach out. Our interview process starts with an intro call to answer any questions you have about the role and to learn a bit more about your experience and interests.
From there, we’ll follow up with a panel interview call where you get to meet a few members of our team, to openly discuss some of our challenges and ensure your skills and interests align with where we’re going as a business.
For qualified candidates, the process wraps with a reference call, and an offer to follow.
👩🏭 How we work:
We believe that there’s a better balance between the poles of freelancing & full time, and for that reason Sanctuary works differently to most shops:
