# eCommerce Systems Architect / eCommerce Expert

## Remote | Long-Term | Full-Time or Near Full-Time

## About Us

We are a fast-growing company in the renewable energy industry expanding into nationwide eCommerce. Our goal is to build a professional online store that sells solar materials, solar equipment, complete solar kits, accessories, and training programs to customers across the United States.

We are looking for an experienced eCommerce professional who can help us build the entire operation from the ground up — not just manage product listings.

This role is ideal for someone who understands eCommerce systems, supplier inventory, drop shipping, warehouse inventory, shipping integrations, marketing integrations, and scalable business processes.

## Role Overview

We need help setting up and managing a complete eCommerce ecosystem.

Most of our materials will be drop shipped directly from suppliers, but some products will ship from our own warehouse. Because of this, we need someone who can help us establish an inventory system that connects our online store, supplier inventory, warehouse inventory, marketing ecosystem, and 3PL/shipping partners.

We are not just looking for a website designer. We are looking for someone who understands how to build the backend systems that make an eCommerce business run smoothly.
