About The Role

About the Role

Feel Your Soul (FYS) is a lifestyle and experience brand built around Footsouls — comfort insoles for Converse and Vans that have grown from a single founder's garage idea into a thriving online community across TikTok and Instagram. Founder Jacob Zander built FYS on a simple mission: inspire people to chase their dreams and live a life they'd want to relive.

We're looking for a Shopify Web Developer to help us build out new landing pages and website versions, with a sharp focus on conversion. You'll be working directly with the FYS team to turn ideas and design direction into pages that actually convert visitors into customers — this isn't just implementation, you'll be a key voice in how the site evolves.

What You Will Do

  • Build and launch new landing pages and website versions on Shopify based on design direction from the team
  • Set up and manage A/B tests to continuously improve page performance and conversion rates
  • Optimize site speed, mobile responsiveness, and checkout flow to reduce drop-off
  • Implement and maintain Shopify apps/integrations relevant to ecom growth (upsells, reviews, email capture, etc.)
  • Troubleshoot and fix bugs or design inconsistencies across the site
  • Collaborate closely with the creative team to make sure design intent translates cleanly into a working page
  • Recommend structural or technical changes that could improve conversion, based on best practices and data

What You Bring

  • Proven experience building and customizing Shopify stores (theme customization, Liquid, basic HTML/CSS/JS)
  • A strong eye for conversion — you understand what makes a landing page convert, not just what makes it look good
  • Experience running or supporting A/B tests on a live ecom site
  • Comfortable working independently once given design direction, without needing every detail spelled out
  • A portfolio of past Shopify builds or landing pages you can share
  • Clear communication and reliable turnaround — this is a contract role and dependability matters

Why You Will Love This

You'll have real ownership over how the FYS website evolves — this isn't a "make one page and disappear" gig, it's a chance to build an ongoing relationship with a fast-growing, community-driven brand. You'll work directly with the founder's vision and see your work reflected in a site used by a large, engaged audience.

Benefits and Compensation

  • Contract-based, $1,000–$4,000/month depending on experience and scope
  • Open to candidates from any country, with preference for South America, India, or South Africa
  • Opportunity to grow into an ongoing retainer relationship as FYS's website needs expand
