Do you instinctively spot broken links, layout issues, or pricing inconsistencies when shopping online? Are you energized by behind-the-scenes work that keeps digital experiences running flawlessly? Have you been searching for a way to combine your attention to detail with a passion for motorsports? If you're nodding your head, you may be the eCommerce Operations Support Specialist that we’re looking for.

Who are we?

Apex Wheels is a leading provider of high-performance motorsport wheels for driving enthusiasts and track day warriors. Our mission is simple: deliver wheels with real, measurable performance and protect consumers from an industry full of misleading, style-over-substance products. We're a 17-year-old, remote-first, DTC company with a team of 40+ based across the U.S., and we’re just getting started.

Objective

Our eCommerce team is taking on critical initiatives and we need you to help us move fast and avoid breaking things. This role is a new position that will free up our eCommerce Director and Systems Admin by owning three core areas:

QA and bug triage for our eCommerce platform
Backend product data integrity and maintenance
Analytics support for the Marketing and eCommerce teams

Success in this role means that our eCommerce department will be more efficient and have more time to handle critical initiatives. This is because you have established a well-considered QA process - from triaging to resolution and communication across the team. We’ll spot bugs faster and manage them more efficiently. Our response time to rectify incorrect or incomplete product, customer, and order data will be faster and more efficient. The broader Marketing team will have faster, more informed decision-making thanks to your support in providing reporting and analytics.

Job Summary

You’ll be our first line of defense for identifying bugs and validating site changes. Your task is to find, prevent, and monitor the types of issues that frustrate customers, disrupt sales, or waste team resources. We have a complex and sensitive headless tech stack, this isn’t a simple out of the box website. One change can have unforeseen consequences in another area. Your ability to test beyond just the obvious is critical. Our current QA process is inefficient, disruptive, and not visible to those who need eyes on it. One of your first tasks will be to establish and formalize a QA process that works for the team and considers our external developer relationships. You’ll be the primary point of contact for bugs, their triage, tracking, resolution, and communication across the organization. Day to day, you’ll be expected to proactively test and QA our website for unknown bugs, and weekly dev releases. There will be periods of more intense QA work when we have new site enhancements. Once you’re settled in and have a good foundational understanding of our website and a vetted QA process in place, you’ll have a moderate degree of autonomy in owning the QA function. If you're looking for a role that has the day to day work spelled out clearly and need consistency in the pace of work, this is not the job for you.

Our backend systems are equally complex to our customer-facing website. From inventory availability & ETAs to vehicle fitments, you’ll work with cross-team members, to help ensure what customers see on the website is accurate. Inaccurate product data can lead to abandoned carts, frustrated customers, and support team headaches. Your attention to detail will prevent all three.

You’ll help surface performance data and build reliable reports for our broader Marketing team. We won’t expect you to deeply analyze the data, but we’ll rely on your accurate and timely reporting to enable faster, smarter decision-making. Whether it’s spotting anomalies or tracking campaign performance, your analytical support will be key to identifying opportunities for growth and efficiency. You’ll use Google Analytics 4 and other tools to help the team analyze traffic and sales channel data, the effectiveness of our paid ad campaigns for example. Your insights will help the team decide if this strategy is right, why traffic changes, and which efforts have the best ROI. The team will use this data at both the tactical level and to inform our executive level strategy. Although heavy data analysis and interpretation is not a core function of this position, we encourage interested data nerds and analytical types to apply.

Who are you?

You have a strong eye for detail and naturally gravitate toward QA work
You prefer behind-the-scenes execution but communicate and collaborate proactively
You’re highly organized, independent, and accountable for your workload
You spot errors others miss - and enjoy fixing them (Do you annoy your friends when pointing out their spelling and grammar mistakes?)
You value variety in your workday, but can handle periods of repetitive tasks and appreciate defined priorities
You thrive in a fast-paced DTC environment where your work directly impacts CX and revenue

How to apply

Please include the phrase “ApexVS5-RS” in the space provided for your cover letter/writing prompt so we know you have the level of attention to detail we’re looking for.
