Fractional CTO for Shopify Boutiques

Your Boutique Outgrew
Default Shopify

DrippinCode is the technical partner for Shopify boutiques doing real volume — senior development and fractional CTO support for when spreadsheets, workarounds, and out-of-the-box tools stop keeping up.

⚙️

Senior-level, no overhead

Architecture, builds, and judgment — without a full-time engineering salary.

📦

Fulfillment is the focus

Picking, packing, inventory, transfers — the operational tech boutiques actually run on.

What We Do

We work with Shopify boutiques on a monthly retainer — the senior developer and technical partner on your team, without the full-time cost. Most engagements blend a few of these:

01

Shopify Development

Custom features, theme work, and app integrations — built for how your store actually runs, not a generic template.

02

Custom Business Tools

The internal tool that finally replaces the spreadsheet — purpose-built for how your team really works.

03

Workflow Automation

Stop doing by hand what software can do. We map your repetitive processes and automate them.

04

Reporting & Dashboards

Know what's selling, what's not, and why — without digging through five different reports.

05

Fractional CTO

Strategy, vendor calls, architecture decisions, and someone to call when something breaks at 11pm.

Not sure which you need?

Start with an AI & Tech Assessment — a one-time review that tells you exactly where to focus first.

Start with an Assessment

Not sure where to start?

The AI & Tech Assessment is a one-time, structured review of your Shopify operation — fulfillment flow, inventory, your app stack, automation gaps, and where AI actually fits your workflow. You get a short written report with 3–5 prioritized fixes ranked by impact and effort, plus a 30-minute debrief call. No retainer required, no strings — it stands on its own.
