Your typical day at fonQ…- 09:00: Stand up: You start the day with a stand-up, where you’re the go-to person for all Shopify frontend-related updates.
- 09:30: Hands-on work: Building a new theme section, fixing a styling issue, or tweaking meta-fields so products display correctly.
- 11:00: Stakeholder Meeting: You join a quick session with the e-commerce team to align on a new feature and make sure the UX will work within Shopify’s theme framework.
