Full-Stack Developer for Beverage Store Development

We are launching a new online store for our portfolio of premium beverages (bottled, canned, and specialty drinks) and are seeking an experienced full-stack developer to bring this project from concept to a fully functional, production-ready e-commerce platform.

The ideal candidate will have a strong portfolio of responsive, modern e-commerce sites and be able to handle both front-end aesthetics and complex back-end functionality.

Core Scope & Requirements
Modern Storefront Development: Create a responsive, user-friendly, and aesthetically pleasing storefront that effectively showcases our product lines.
Product Customization Engine: Implement a robust system that allows customers to mix and match flavors (e.g., create custom variety packs) directly within the cart. This is a core feature.
E-Commerce Essentials:
Product catalog with categorization
Advanced search and filtering
Integrated, secure checkout process (Stripe, PayPal, or similar)
Tax and shipping rule configuration
Automated email receipts and order confirmations
Basic sales dashboard and analytics
Content Management System (CMS): An intuitive, secure admin panel (or "back-office") for my team to easily:
Add, edit, and remove products and categories.
Update inventory stock levels and pricing.
View and manage customer orders.

Tech Stack
Frontend: React.js / Next.js
Backend: Node.js (Python/FastAPI is also acceptable)
Database: PostgreSQL (preferred) or MongoDB
