IronFrame

Production-grade commerce engineering for serious Shopify teams

We execute and ship production-safe Shopify changes using AI-accelerated workflows, senior review, and clear release ownership.

Shopify engineering challenges

The problem

Engineering risk grows as your store scales

Small changes compound into big problems. Apps conflict. Theme updates overwrite custom logic. Manual processes slow you down. AI-generated code without ownership quietly breaks production.

App conflicts

New apps clash with existing integrations and custom code.

Manual bottlenecks

Ops tasks pile up. Reconciliation takes hours. Issues surface after customers feel them.

Theme regressions

Updates overwrite customizations. Rollbacks take hours.

No clear ownership

Releases ship without accountability. When something breaks, ownership is unclear and fixes stall.

The solution

A fractional engineering team that owns the outcome

We move fast using modern tools, backed by senior review, QA, and release ownership. You get a team on standby — not a code generator.

We combine AI-accelerated development with human verification, testing, and production-safe deployment — so speed never comes at the cost of stability.

How it works

Three steps to ship safely

01

Submit your task

Tell us what needs to be built or fixed. We scope it, confirm the approach, and lock in a turnaround window.

02

We build and review

Senior engineers write the code. AI-accelerated, human-verified, and QA'd against your live environment before delivery.

03

Shipped to production

We deploy with full ownership — clear release notes, a rollback plan, and a post-deploy check to confirm everything holds.

What we do

Engineering work. Nothing else.

No design. No CRO. No strategy decks. Just clean, production-safe Shopify engineering — scoped, reviewed, and shipped.

Bug fixes & patches

Fast diagnosis and resolution of Shopify bugs — checkout issues, theme conflicts, broken logic — with a documented fix and post-deploy verification.

Custom features & logic

Bespoke Shopify functionality built to spec — custom metafields, storefront logic, Liquid templating, and checkout extensions.

App integrations & APIs

Connect third-party apps, custom APIs, and data pipelines to your Shopify store without breaking existing logic or checkout flow.

Theme development

Performant, pixel-precise Shopify theme work — new sections, layout changes, and customizations that stay intact through OS2 updates.

Performance optimization

Core Web Vitals, LCP improvements, script loading strategies, and image optimization — measurable speed gains on real Shopify stores.

Emergency support

On-call response for production incidents — store outages, broken checkouts, failed deploys — with a clear escalation path and rapid fix.

FAQ

Questions we get asked

A task is a single, scoped unit of engineering work — a bug fix, a new Liquid section, an API integration, a theme tweak, or a checkout extension. If it can be clearly defined and delivered independently, it's a task. Large projects get broken into tasks during scoping. You don't pay more — the scope just determines how many tasks a project takes.

Turnaround is per scoped task — not per project. Starter delivers within 48 hours per task, Standard within 24 hours, and Premium same-day. Complex requests get broken into tasks during scoping, so large work ships incrementally rather than making you wait for one big delivery. The clock starts after scope confirmation, not when you submit.

Yes. We work in your dev environment or a staging theme, and deploy to production only after QA and your sign-off. Every release includes a rollback plan and a post-deploy check.

We revise until it's right. Every task comes with revisions included — no extra charge. If something ships that breaks in production, we fix it immediately at no cost. We own the outcome, not just the delivery.

Yes. Most of our clients are on Shopify Plus. We're experienced with checkout extensibility, B2B features, multi-store setups, and the constraints that come with high-volume stores.

You can cancel at the end of any billing period — no penalties, no lock-in. Pausing is available on Standard and Premium plans if you need to step down temporarily.

We'll take one real task from your backlog, scope it, and deliver it at no charge. No commitment required. It's how we prove the model works before you pay anything.

We use AI-accelerated development tooling to move faster — but every line of code is reviewed by a senior engineer before it ships. AI speeds up the work; humans own the quality and the release.
