About the Role

Signature Performance Tire and Wheel is looking for a highly organized, technically capable E-Commerce Data & Automation Manager to manage the product data, integrations, and automation that power our growing e-commerce business.

We are looking for someone who understands how e-commerce systems work together and can take large amounts of product information, organize it, improve it, automate it, and distribute it accurately across multiple sales channels.

The ideal candidate will have hands‑on experience with Rithum, formerly ChannelAdvisor , along with Shopify, product feeds, large data files, marketplace integrations, pricing rules, inventory feeds, and order automation.

A major focus of this position will be identifying repetitive manual processes and helping us replace them with better systems and automation.

Shopify Management

• Create and maintain product listings in Shopify

What We're Looking For

We want someone who sees a repetitive process and immediately starts thinking:

“How can we make this faster, more accurate, and more automated?”

The right person will be organized, technically curious, detail‑oriented, and persistent.

If a product feed breaks, inventory stops updating, a pricing rule is incorrect, or two systems aren't communicating properly, we want someone who enjoys digging into the problem and figuring out what needs to be fixed.

This person should also be comfortable taking ownership of projects rather than waiting for step‑by‑step instructions.

Our goal is to continue reducing manual work throughout the company through better data management, integrations, APIs, and automation.

Compensation

$65,000–$75,000 per year

Compensation will be based on experience with Rithum / ChannelAdvisor, Shopify, product‑data management, APIs, and e‑commerce automation.

This is an opportunity to take ownership of the systems behind a growing automotive e‑commerce operation and have a direct impact on how efficiently the company operates.
