ThemeFlight Shopify App
Lead engineer and architect on a custom embedded Shopify app, taking it through Shopify marketplace certification.
// impact: Passed Shopify marketplace certification
// Context
Through Lexima.io I delivered several client platforms, including cluster.byheart.com, axiaspirit.com, and the ThemeFlight Shopify app.
// Challenges
- ›A broken Shopify OAuth2 flow and unreliable webhook handlers were blocking certification
- ›An overly complex serverless architecture
// Approach
- ›Debugged and fixed the Shopify OAuth2 implementation and the AWS Lambda webhook handlers
- ›Simplified the Serverless architecture and automated CI/CD with AWS and GitHub Actions
- ›On other engagements, optimized GCP Functions cold starts, wired up Segment and Klaviyo pipelines, and tuned Sanity.io caching
// Outcomes
- ›ThemeFlight passed Shopify marketplace certification
- ›Leaner, automated deployment pipeline
