Rose City Commerce is owned and operated by Liam Crawshaw, a Portland-based software engineer focused on building practical websites, storefronts, integrations, and internal tools.
Over eight years in software engineering, I've worked across enterprise ecommerce platforms, including three years on Shopify Plus, as well as React and TypeScript applications, product data systems, and performance initiatives supporting brands including Fender, PreSonus, Jackson, and Leatherman. I also help local businesses and independent brands improve their digital presence.
Today, Rose City Commerce helps businesses build and maintain Shopify storefronts, websites, integrations, and internal workflows without unnecessary complexity.
I focus on practical improvements that help businesses operate more smoothly, whether that's improving a storefront experience, simplifying content management, increasing site speed, or reducing manual work through automation.
I prefer clear communication, maintainable systems, and long-term relationships over oversized scopes and complicated process.
When you work with Rose City Commerce, you work directly with the person planning the project, writing the code, and supporting the work after launch.
No account managers. No layers of communication. Just direct collaboration and practical technical execution.
Clear priorities, realistic recommendations, and straightforward communication.
Move quickly where it matters without creating technical debt that causes problems later.
Build solutions that clients can realistically maintain and grow over time.
Focus on durable systems and relationships rather than short-term fixes.
