• Data Accuracy: Cross-check product details (size, materials, colors) with source data and correct missing or mismatched information efficiently.
• Collections & Categorization: Assign products to the right collections, ensuring discoverability and consistency across the store.
• Quality Control: Regularly audit listings using AI or automation tools to identify errors, broken links, duplicates, or missing images.
• Collaboration: Work with marketing, design, and operations teams to ensure products are launch-ready and visually aligned with the brand.
• Reporting: Maintain a structured tracker (Google Sheets) of listings in progress, pending review, and published.

Requirements

• Experience with Shopify Admin or similar eCommerce platforms.
• Proficiency with AI tools to edit copy, clean data, generate text, and solve small workflow problems.

• Excellent written English and understanding of product SEO.
• Comfort with Google Sheets, Canva, and basic file management tools.
• Aesthetic eye for visual presentation and brand consistency.
• Ability to take ownership, meet deadlines, and continuously improve processes using AI.

Nice to Have

• Familiarity with ChatGPT or Gemini prompts for eCommerce workflow automation.
• Experience working with fashion, handmade, or leather product brands.

What Success Looks Like

• Products go live on time with accurate data, clean imagery, and SEO-ready descriptions.
