LOOKING FOR SOMEONE WHO CAN BUILD MY SHOPIFY STORE W/ MY INSPO ( + AutoDS & Alibaba )

I’m looking for an experienced Shopify developer to build a complete e-commerce store for me.

The goal is to create a clean, modern, and high-end looking store on Shopify with a minimalist aesthetic inspired by brands like the beauty brand RHODE (simple layout, soft luxury feel, not cluttered or “dropshipping-looking”).

I need someone who can handle both the design and full setup of the store, including product importing and basic third-party integrations.

What I need done:

Full Shopify store setup (theme installation and customization)

Clean, modern design inspired by RHODE inspired branding (not a copy)

Mobile-friendly and fast-loading layout

Homepage, product pages, collection pages, cart, and navigation setup, etc

Help defining and applying a simple color scheme (I want a soft, minimal aesthetic. I will send in color schemes.)

Product import and setup using AutoDS + Alibaba

Ensure products are properly synced into Shopify

Clean up product titles, descriptions, and images so everything looks professional (I can tell you and come up w diff names)

Organize products into collections/categories

Set up domain connection

Basic shipping settings

Create essential pages (About, Contact, Shipping Policy, Refund Policy)

Inspiration / Style:

Clean and minimal design inspo: RHODE

Soft, modern, and aesthetic branding

Simple navigation and layout

High-end feel (not messy or typical dropshipping store)

**REQUIREMENTS**

Proven experience building Shopify stores

Experience with product importing and AutoDS or similar tools

Strong design sense for clean, modern e-commerce sites

Attention to detail and ability to follow a design direction

Good communication & is flexible

**IMPORTANT**

I will own all accounts (Shopify, AutoDS, domain, etc.)

This is strictly a store setup and design project (not marketing or ads)

I want everything ready for launch at the end of the project. I do not plan to hire full time yet.

Please include:

Examples of Shopify stores you have built

Your experience with product importing / automation tools

Estimated timeline and price (My budget is 150-170$)
