About Us
WeWearAustralian is a premium Australian fashion retail platform based in SoHo, New York — the first dedicated multi-brand Australian fashion retail store in the United States, representing 25 independent Australian designers and labels.
We are a founder-led, fast-moving business at an exciting stage of growth. We are building a lean, high-performing team and are looking for a Lead Developer to build the infrastructure that lets us scale intelligently and efficiently.

The Role
As Lead Developer, you will own the design, build and ongoing development of all technology systems across the WeWearAustralian business. This is a hands-on, full-stack role with a strong emphasis on Shopify & AI integration in building & optimising a retail sales and brand partner platform, working directly with the founders and Commercial Operations Manager.

Your Primary Focus Areas

• Brand partner portal: a secure, private, self-serve dashboard giving each of our ~25 brand partners access to their own live sales, inventory, pulled directly from Shopify for weekly review.
• Shopify x Claude AI integration: automated sales reporting, inventory intelligence, commission calculations and brand insights powered by the Anthropic Claude API
• Xero accounting integration: syncing financial data from Shopify to Xero, creating draft commission bills and supporting the finance function
• Internal operations tooling: dashboards, automations and workflows that eliminate manual processes across buying, operations and finance
A full build brief will be provided to the right candidate.

Ongoing Responsibilities

• Maintain and improve all systems in production
• Build new features as the business grows
• Identify automation opportunities proactively across the business

• Minimum 3 years of experience in a developer & systems building role, ideally with exposure to retail.
• Native-level English fluency, written and spoken. You will communicate directly with the founders and Commercial Operations Manager in the United States.

Must-Have Skills

• Hands-on experience with Shopify, REST and GraphQL APIs.
• Demonstrated AI & Shopify integration experience, building real products with LLM APIs (OpenAI, Anthropic or equivalent)
• Authentication and user management systems (Clerk, Auth0 or similar)

• PDF generation for branded documents

• Familiarity with Claude or the Anthropic API specifically

• Comfortable managing 25+ brands simultaneously with precision and care in a platform system.
• Take direction well and implement it accurately
• Comfortable asking questions
