Shoemaker was the co-offensive coordinator and quarterbacks coach at St. Cloud State from 2009 to 2013.

On December 26, 2013, Shoemaker was hired for his first football head coaching opportunity at Central Washington, an NCAA Division II program in Ellensburg, Washington. From 2014 to 2018, Shoemaker led the program to a 38-16 overall record, two Great Northwest Athletic Conference championships (2017 & 2018), and a NCAA playoff appearance (2017). He was named the Don Hansen Super Region 3 Coach of the Year and the GNAC coach of the year in 2017, as well as, with his staff, developing 8 All-Americans over his five-year tenure.

In 2019, Shoemaker was hired to his first NCAA FCS position, when he was hired as the offensive coordinator and quarterbacks coach at Eastern Washington. In his first season, Shoemaker's offense led the NCAA FCS in total offense with an average of 524.8 yards per game, and quarterback Eric Barriere was a finalist for the Walter Payton Award, which is given to the country's top FCS player.

In his 3rd and final season at EWU, Shoemaker led the offense to a fast start once again. Through seven games, the Eagles were averaging 54 points a game, over 628 yards a game, and the team was 7–0, but after two straight losses in which the offense was held to nearly half of their season averages, Shoemaker resigned, stating it was a mutual separation that was in the best interest of the team.
