Purpose:The Senior eCommerce Engineer designs, builds, and owns complex full-stack features on flooranddecor.com, operating with a high degree of independence across the front-end, back-end, and platform layers of the eCommerce technology stack. This role is a key technical contributor who translates ambiguous requirements into scalable, well-architected solutions.
The Senior eCommerce Engineer is expected to bring strong platform expertise (e.g., Salesforce Commerce Cloud, WebSphere Commerce), deep full-stack engineering judgment across React and Java, and fluency with modern development practices - including AI-assisted ("vibe coding") development - to accelerate delivery without compromising code quality, security, or platform stability. This individual also mentors junior engineers and helps raise the technical bar for the team.
Essential Functions / Key Responsibilities: Full-Stack Feature Ownership- Design and build complex, full-stack features spanning React front-end applications and back-end services/APIs
- Own features end-to-end - from technical design through implementation, testing, deployment, and post-release monitoring
- Make sound architectural and design trade-offs within an established feature area, escalating platform-level decisions to the Lead Engineer or Architect
Platform Expertise- Serve as a go-to expert on core commerce platform capabilities (catalog, pricing, promotions, cart/checkout, order management) within a large-scale platform such as Salesforce Commerce Cloud or WebSphere Commerce
- Design and build integrations between the commerce platform and adjacent systems (OMS, payments, search, personalization, etc.)
- Identify and remediate platform performance, scalability, and reliability issues
Engineering Excellence- Write high-quality, well-tested, maintainable code and lead by example in code reviews
- Champion test automation, observability, and secure coding practices across the features they own
- Responsibly leverage AI-assisted coding tools to accelerate development while validating output for correctness, security, and adherence to standards
Mentorship & Collaboration- Mentor eCommerce Engineers through pairing, code review, and technical guidance
- Partner with product managers, designers, and QA to shape technical requirements and acceptance criteria
- Contribute to sprint planning, estimation, and technical documentation
Minimum Qualifications- 4-7 years of professional software development experience, with strong full-stack expertise
- Advanced proficiency in React and modern front-end architecture, plus strong Java back-end development experience
- Demonstrated experience designing and consuming RESTful/GraphQL APIs and third-party integrations
- Experience with automated testing, CI/CD pipelines, and Agile/Scrum delivery
Preferred- Hands-on experience with a large-scale eCommerce platform such as Salesforce Commerce Cloud, WebSphere Commerce, or a comparable enterprise platform
- Direct experience with Salesforce Commerce Cloud (SFRA/PWA Kit) or IBM WebSphere Commerce in a production, high-traffic environment
- Hands-on use of AI-assisted development tools (e.g., GitHub Copilot, Cursor, Claude Code) to accelerate feature delivery
- Experience with cloud platforms (AWS, Azure, or GCP) and containerized/microservices architectures
- Familiarity with performance optimization, caching strategies, and site reliability practices for high-traffic eCommerce sites
- Bachelor's degree in Computer Science or related field, or equivalent practical experience
- Performance - Genuine care about performance as a customer experience problem, not a checkbox. You measure before you optimize.
- AI-forward engineering - Comfortable using AI tools (Claude Code and similar) as part of your daily workflow to accelerate delivery without cutting corners on quality.
- Ownership - Takes full ownership of features end-to-end and proactively raises risks before they become problems.
