I turn ambitious designs and complex requirements into fast, accessible and polished Shopify and Shopify Plus storefronts — from Lithuania, working remotely across Europe and beyond.

6+ years Shopify
A little about me
I’m Giedrius, a front-end developer specializing in Shopify and e-commerce. I’ve been building for the web for 8+ years, with 6+ years focused on Shopify.
Most of my work sits between design and the final customer experience: turning detailed designs into maintainable Shopify themes, building reusable sections and components, integrating third-party tools, and solving the storefront logic that makes complex experiences feel simple.
Over the years, I’ve worked on complete theme builds and redesigns, PDPs, carts, integrations, accessibility, performance and conversion-focused improvements for brands around the world.
I’m at my best when I can take ownership of the front-end implementation, work closely with design and QA, question details early, and carry a feature through to production.
Outside of client work, I’m usually building something of my own, experimenting with AI, training, playing guitar, or finding another project to get unnecessarily invested in.
