The Shopify Retail team builds products for businesses that have brick-and-mortar retail stores, focusing on making Shopify the best commerce platform for these retailers. They invest their time on Shopify point-of-sales (POS) software and hardware, as well as cross-Shopify product work that disproportionately impacts retailers.

  • The problem set the Retail team is involved in
  • How industrial designers are part of the product design team
  • The differences between working on hardware and software
  • The team's rituals and processes
  • How the length of the hardware design process has influenced the team's software design
  • The types of problems the team is interested in working on in the future
