Shopify Developer Needed-Custom Product Configurator + Production Workflow

SHOPIFY DEVELOPER NEEDED — CUSTOM PRODUCT CONFIGURATOR + PRODUCTION WORKFLOW

We are building a premium home products brand called Labeled Lights.

The product is a custom UV-printed switch plate. Customers configure each plate online by selecting plate size, color, room name, and switch labels. The website must include a live visual preview that updates as the customer builds the order.

This is not a standard Shopify theme job. We need someone with real experience building custom Shopify product configurators, structured order data, saved projects, and internal workflow tools.

A detailed Functional Spec v2 is attached. Please review it before responding.
