About Konvera

Konvera (https://apps.shopify.com/konvera) is a next-generation Shopify app that makes A/B split testing truly effortless for merchants. Instead of asking store owners to brainstorm test ideas, Konvera suggests split-test ideas (for example, testing new prices and images, rewriting ad copy with AI or adding video testimonials). Merchants simply pick a suggested test type and click “Launch.” In just a few seconds and a couple of clicks, a fully configured split test goes live—no manual coding or creative brainstorming required.

Under the hood, Konvera combines:

• A Ruby on Rails backend
• AWS infrastructure (CodeCommit, EC2/Docker, Sidekiq)
• PostgreSQL, Redis, and Elasticsearch for data storage and search
• A polished frontend built with JavaScript and Shopify Polaris (for the embedded admin UI)
• A Theme App Extension (Liquid + JavaScript) that seamlessly injects test variants into any Shopify storefront without manual theme edits

🚀 Why Join Us?

• Collaborative, Supportive Team: Work directly with a founder who values clear communication and innovation, and benefit from guidance by experienced technical advisors.
• Competitive Compensation: Paid hourly, with room for increases based on performance and added responsibilities.

🔧 What You’ll Do

Build New Split-Test Types & Features

• Expand Konvera’s admin UI (Shopify Polaris) so merchants can choose from an evolving library of test ideas (e.g., headline swap, image swap, button color change).
• Implement backend logic (Rails) to automatically create, schedule, and track each test variant based on the merchant’s selection.
• Ensure test data populates clean, user-friendly reports (e.g., conversion rates, statistical significance) within the Polaris dashboard.

Optimize & Maintain Backend Services

• Refactor existing Ruby on Rails code for stability, performance, and scalability (database migrations, Sidekiq job efficiency, Elasticsearch query optimization).
• Write and maintain unit/integration tests to safeguard core logic (test creation, result calculations, API integrations).

Deploy & Monitor on AWS

• Work within our AWS-based CI/CD pipeline (Docker + EC2) to push updates to staging and production environments.
• Monitor application logs, troubleshoot errors, and implement robust fixes to keep Konvera reliable for all merchants.

Document & Communicate

• Provide concise, plain-English write-ups explaining bug fixes, feature implementations, or performance improvements—suitable for a non-technical founder to understand.
• Suggest UI/UX enhancements within the Polaris admin interface to make choosing and launching split tests as intuitive as possible.

🎯 What We’re Looking For (Required)

Proven Shopify App Experience

• Built or maintained at least one Shopify app (public or private).
• Hands-on experience with Shopify APIs (REST and/or GraphQL), OAuth authentication, and webhook handling.

Ruby on Rails Expertise

• 3+ years of professional experience developing and maintaining Rails applications.
• Comfortable with ActiveRecord, migrations, background processing (Sidekiq), and automated testing (RSpec or similar).

Frontend & Theme Extensions Know-How

• Experience building embedded admin UIs using Shopify Polaris (React/JS).
• Familiarity with Shopify Theme App Extensions (Liquid, JavaScript) to inject dynamic storefront code without manual theme edits.

AWS & DevOps Fundamentals

• Familiarity with AWS-hosted Docker environments: CodeCommit (or equivalent Git), EC2, Docker Compose.
• Experience with Redis, PostgreSQL, and Elasticsearch (or willingness to learn quickly).

Excellent Problem-Solving & Communication

• Demonstrated ability to diagnose complex bugs (e.g., theme compatibility issues) and deliver clear, reliable solutions.
• Strong written communication—able to explain technical concepts clearly to a non-technical founder.
