Senior ColdFusion Developer (freelance)

what. AG. is a consultancy that supports its clients with their web presence, the creation of digital products, and their growth. For our clients, we conceptualise and build digital products and enterprise websites.

At what. we take a quality-focused but pragmatic approach to building software. The lean methodology is a crucial driver in how we do things all around the company, and this evidence-based approach focused on iterations and learning applies both to the things we build as well as how we build them.

If you are motivated to help an eCommerce team to provide up-to-date solutions to merchants and want to make a difference within the Shopify environment this job will be amazingly challenging for you.

Implementing, modifying and extending ColdFusion based gateways in and around Shopify will be your main task day in, day out. Working on new features and processes in existing projects and working closely with the Shopify API (both REST API and GraphQL) is already part of your daily tasks and your deep knowledge of GraphQL, especially in conjunction with Shopify, will help you to query and manipulate data effectively.

You are already familiar with Liquid coding for developing and customising Shopify shops/themes/templates, have used Coldfusion-based framework one or have knowledge of SQL databases (mostly mySQL), the better but no worries is a plus on top.

You always have the chance to learn something new. You'll never get bored with us, as new and interesting issues pop up every day.

At what. we believe that work should be fun and something you want to do and not something you have to do. We help that along with the following:

• Excellent office location in Seefeld in Zürich, if you work in Switzerland.

• You take control of your availability - Need to take care of something in the morning and want to catch up later? No problem. We are results-oriented, we don’t micromanage.

• Flat hierarchy - Get decisions fast when you need them.

• You have a large amount of responsibility in your department. Do you want to change something? See possibilities to improve how we do things or what we do? The only thing needed is to speak up and we will discuss.

• Multicultural and multidisciplinary team with a focus on improving and learning. We want you to learn and grow which is why you will have access to individual training and guidance.

• Opportunity to visit the team in Switzerland - we cover the costs

• Fair compensation

• Opportunities to visit clients on-site in Switzerland

• Weekly remote pilates classes for all
