About The Position

About Famous Cigars: Family-owned since 1939, Famous Cigars is a premier online cigar retailer built on top-notch customer service and an exceptional shopping experience. We’re modernizing our e-commerce platform with a focus on speed, reliability, and customer experience, so your work is visible, measurable, and shipped to production. Job Summary We’re seeking a Magento (Adobe Commerce) Headless Software Developer to help build fast, modern e-commerce experiences that customers love. You’ll work with Magento as an API-first backend and a React/Next.js storefront architecture (GraphQL-forward, GraphCommerce-style). This is a hands-on role with real ownership—ideal for someone who moves quickly, works independently, and enjoys shipping improvements that directly impact customer experience, conversion, and site performance. Hyvä (Themes or Checkout) experience is a strong bonus. What We Offer/Why Join Competitive compensation and benefits. Opportunity to work on modern, composable commerce architectures. Engineering-driven culture with room to influence technical direction. Long-term platform ownership and growth opportunities. Autonomy and accountability: trusted to scope work, make decisions, and deliver. Visible impact: your work ships to production and improves customer experience and performance. This role is ideal for engineers who enjoy combining Magento’s robust commerce engine with modern React-based frontends. If you’ve worked with GraphCommerce, or built something similar, you’ll feel right at home. Hyvä experience is a strong plus, but React + Magento GraphQL + PHP expertise is core to this role. Work Location Requirement This position is on-site Monday through Friday at our Easton, PA headquarters to support fast collaboration, production schedules, and close coordination with internal teams. Hybrid/remote may be considered for highly qualified candidates who can work Eastern Time and visit on-site occasionally.

• Strong JavaScript/TypeScript experience and hands-on work with React and modern front-end tooling (Next.js experience a plus).
• Experience consuming and designing GraphQL/REST APIs, including performance considerations (caching, query efficiency).
