L'équipe derrière Store Standards

Nous avons commencé dans une réserve à Bristol, à compter trois fois le même carton.

Comment nous en sommes arrivés là

Store Standards started in 2021, in the stockroom of a bike shop in Bristol, with a spreadsheet that had been rebuilt four times and still could not say how many medium jackets were on the shelf.

The problem was never the counting. It was that counting happened in one place, and Shopify found out about it somewhere else, hours later, from someone who had not been there. Every store we have worked with since has some version of that gap.

So we build small apps that close it. We do not take client work, we do not run retainers, and we do not build anything we would not use on a Saturday morning with a delivery driver waiting. Everything we make goes on the Shopify App Store, and we live with the reviews.

There are nine of us, and two dogs who came with the office. We answer our own support, we publish our uptime, and we still do a shift in a real stockroom every month, because it is the only reliable way to find out what we got wrong.

Qui nous sommes

  • Priya Raghunathan

    Founder, engineer

    Ici depuis 2021

    I ran stock control for six bike shops before I wrote any code. I rebuilt the same receiving sheet four times, got fed up, and built this instead.

    I still do one stockroom shift a month.

  • Tom Beckwith

    Engineer

    Ici depuis 2021

    I write most of the code that talks to Shopify. Six years on warehouse software taught me to keep a queue boring. Ours has never printed a label twice.

    I own four label printers. I test on the worst one.

  • Ana Sousa

    Design lead

    Ici depuis 2022

    I draw every screen twice. Once the way I want it, once the way it looks at eight in the morning with a van outside. The second one usually wins.

    I keep a folder of photos of bad shop signs.

  • Marcus Ilori

    Support lead

    Ici depuis 2022

    I read every support email that lands. What comes in turns into the next month of work, or into a page on this blog.

    I have read more Shopify error logs than anyone should.

  • Freya Lindqvist

    Engineer

    Ici depuis 2023

    I look after the ledger that remembers what we have already printed. It is the part that stops a second delivery printing the whole order again.

    I keep a drawer of half-used label rolls.

  • Danny O'Rourke

    Engineer, output

    Ici depuis 2023

    I make the barcode on the label scan first time, on cheap thermal paper, at the till. I care a lot about the millimetre either side of it.

    I collect torn supplier labels to test with.

  • Nia Chambers

    Product

    Ici depuis 2023

    I pick what we build next by watching people take stock off a pallet. Not by counting feature requests. I say no to nine ideas in ten.

    I visit two shops a month, in person.

  • Sam Okafor

    Infrastructure

    Ici depuis 2024

    I keep the servers boring. I run the load tests that decide whether a change ships on a Friday. I am usually the reason it does not.

    I publish our uptime, good month or bad.

  • Ruth Alderman

    Words

    Ici depuis 2024

    I write the help pages and edit this blog down to plain English. I cut about a third of every draft. This one was longer.

    I read every article out loud before it goes out.

  • Bramble

    Office dog

    Ici depuis 2022

    I sleep under the desk by the window. I get up for the post, the kettle, and any bag that has held a sandwich. I have been here longer than half the team.

    Will not move for a fire drill.

  • Otto

    Office dog, junior

    Ici depuis 2024

    I am new and still in training. So far I have eaten one keyboard and half a barcode label. I am told the label was the bigger loss.

    Lives under the standing desk, at ankle height.

Notre façon de faire

Nos standards

Voici les règles que nous nous imposons. C'est aussi pour cela que nos applications ne se ressemblent pas aux autres.

  • 01

    Rapide sur le poste du magasin

    Chaque écran se charge en moins d’une seconde sur la vieille machine derrière la caisse. Nous testons dessus.

  • 02

    Des mots simples

    Pas de jargon dans l'interface. Si un écran a besoin d'un manuel, la conception est ratée et nous recommençons.

  • 03

    Le moins de données possible

    Nous ne gardons que ce qui fait fonctionner l'application. Vous pouvez tout exporter ou tout supprimer quand vous voulez.

  • 04

    Un air de Shopify

    Nous utilisons Shopify Polaris. Nos applications ressemblent à l’admin que votre équipe connaît déjà.

  • 05

    Elle compte à votre place

    L’application retient ce qu’elle a déjà imprimé. Le nombre qu’elle propose est donc déjà le bon.

  • 06

    Une personne, le jour même

    Le support arrive à l'équipe qui a écrit l'application. La plupart des réponses partent en moins de deux heures, aux horaires britanniques.

Nous recrutons lentement

Nous accueillons environ une personne par an. Si vous avez travaillé en retail et que vous codez, écrivez-nous.
