• Collaborate with internal teams and offshore development resources.
• Maintain clear technical documentation for applications, integrations, and processes.

• Continually expand technical and business knowledge.

The ideal candidate is an early-career developer who enjoys both programming and understanding how businesses operate.

We are looking for someone who is curious about what happens beyond the code—someone who wants to understand why a system is being built, how information moves through the organization, and how technology can make a business operate better.

• Bachelor’s degree in Computer Science, Information Systems, Software Engineering, or a related field, or equivalent professional experience.
• Approximately 2–4 years of professional software development experience preferred.
• Experience with one or more modern programming or scripting languages.
• Understanding of databases, SQL, APIs, web services, and application integration concepts.
• Familiarity with web application development.
• Strong analytical and troubleshooting skills.
• Ability and desire to learn new technologies quickly.
• Strong written and verbal communication skills.
• Interest in business processes, ecommerce, ERP systems, and automation.

Experience with PHP, JavaScript, SQL, Magento/Adobe Commerce, NetSuite, Celigo, REST APIs, Git, or cloud technologies is beneficial but not required.

This position provides an opportunity to develop experience across a broad business technology environment, including:

• Magento / Adobe Commerce
• NetSuite ERP
• Celigo integration platform
• API and system integration architecture
• Supplier and ecommerce integrations
• Business process automation
• ERP and ecommerce data architecture
• Solution design and architecture
• Agile/Scrum development practices
• Business intelligence and reporting

This position is designed as a growth role.

Initially, the primary focus will be hands-on development, troubleshooting, integrations, and learning The Image Group’s business systems. As experience grows, the individual will be given increasing responsibility for designing solutions, working directly with business stakeholders, and owning applications and integrations.

A successful individual should progress from Developer  Senior Developer / Solutions Developer  Solutions Architect, developing the technical and business knowledge necessary to eventually take ownership of major ecommerce and business-systems initiatives.

The goal is not simply to develop a strong programmer, but to develop a technology professional who understands both software and the business the software supports.
