James Ybarra
Creative and detail-oriented Frontend & Shopify Developer with 5+ years of experience building engaging, responsive, and high-converting eCommerce stores and web applications. Strong expertise in HTML, CSS, JavaScript, React, Liquid, and Tailwind CSS, combined with deep knowledge of the Shopify ecosystem and theme customization. Adept at collaborating with design and backend teams to deliver seamless user experiences and scalable storefronts. Native Spanish speaker with full professional English proficiency, experienced in remote international teams.
I learned to program during my time at University of Barcelona and Technology, where I studied Web Dev. Beyond the coursework, I pushed myself to build side projects, join hackathons, and contribute to GitHub repos, which gave me practical coding experience.
I really enjoy automating tasks — writing scripts that save time or reduce repetitive work. It feels like having superpowers when you can make systems run more efficiently with just code.
