Retail software has to work on the sales floor, in the warehouse, and online at the same time. Our retail developers build the systems that hold that together: point of sale, inventory and order management, buy-online-pick-up-in-store flows, and the integrations between store hardware and cloud platforms. They also know peak season is not a hypothetical, and they build for the week that decides the year.

Shopify and Shopify Plus, Salesforce Commerce Cloud, Magento and Adobe Commerce, BigCommerce, and custom platforms. We also staff the integration work between those storefronts and ERP or order management systems.
Salaries run from about $75,000 to $240,000 depending on level and specialization. Contract rates commonly fall between $60 and $140 per hour, with order management and POS specialists at the upper end.
