Boston, MA • 🇺🇸 United States
Shopify Developers for Boston Brands
Boston buyers want the data before the build. We work the same way: measure, test, then change, with the reasoning written down rather than asserted.
The Boston Market
The Boston Market
Boston's commerce sits close to its research economy. Consumer health and wellness products with clinical positioning, education and publishing, premium home goods, and a strong professional services base feeding B2B ecommerce. The customer skews educated and research-driven, and so do the people running these brands.
In practice that makes Boston engagements unusually analytical. Clients here are more likely to arrive with GA4 data, a conversion funnel and a hypothesis than with a redesign brief. They want to know what a change is expected to move and how you will know whether it did.
It also means compliance and accuracy carry weight. Health and wellness claims need careful handling, accessibility matters more than average given the institutional customer base, and product information needs to be substantiated rather than aspirational.
What Boston Brands Hire Us For
What Boston Brands Hire Us For
Structured CRO programmes.
Proper A/B testing with sample size calculations, not a redesign presented as an optimisation. Tests documented, results honest, including the ones that lost.
Analytics that can be trusted.
GA4 and server-side tracking set up correctly, so the numbers you are deciding on are not quietly wrong.
Accessibility and compliance.
WCAG remediation for brands selling into universities, hospitals and public institutions where it is a procurement requirement.

Hire one specialist or a full team. Every role below is available to Boston brands on monthly, part-time or project terms.
Engagement Models
Three Ways to Work With Us
Dedicated Monthly
Your specialist, full-time, on your tools and in your standups. Best for continuous roadmaps and brands shipping every week.
From $2,400 / month
- 160 hours per month
- Direct Slack access and daily standups
- Mid-level, senior and lead tiers available
- Monthly rolling, 30 days notice
Part-Time Retainer
A fixed block of hours each month for maintenance, improvements and the small jobs that pile up. Best for stores that are stable but not static.
From $800 / month
- 40 or 80 hours per month
- Prioritised task queue
- Unused hours roll over one month
- Upgrade to dedicated at any time
Project-Based
Fixed scope, fixed price, fixed deadline. Best for migrations, rebuilds and anything with a clear finish line.
From $3,500
- Written scope agreed before work starts
- Milestone billing, not full payment upfront
- 30 days post-launch support included
- Blended rate $25 to $45 per hour
A dedicated seat costs roughly a fifth of the loaded cost of a comparable US hire, with no recruitment fee, no benefits and no notice period. Most brands start on a part-time retainer and move to dedicated once the roadmap outgrows the hours. We will tell you honestly if a project quote serves you better than a monthly commitment.
Strategically Located
Strategically Located for Boston Brands
We are strategically located to serve US brands, with team members based in the US and senior specialists available live during your business hours, not an offshore queue that replies while you sleep.
US-based team members
We have resources based in the United States who understand your market and handle your region directly, not a remote team guessing at local context.
Available in US business hours
Your specialist is live in your Slack, on your calls and in your standup during US working hours. You are not posting tickets into a void overnight.
Live, not asynchronous
Inside those hours you get the specialist in real time. Outside them, every ticket gets a written handover note so your morning starts with progress rather than questions.
How It Works

Match
We put forward specialists from our team with the relevant experience, including work samples from comparable builds. You interview them yourself.
Trial Week
Your chosen specialist works a real ticket from your backlog. If the fit is wrong, you owe nothing and we match again.
Scale
