How to hire Shopify developers? Skills to look for, interview questions, and more

Shopify provides an easy-to-use web application for creating online stores. It comes with multiple customizable themes for experts or professionals to tweak to suit their branding needs. It offers features such as a payment processor, blog, email marketing tools, templates, etc., to develop and market an online store.

Interestingly, when it comes to Shopify development, there are several things to consider. Hence, companies looking to hire dedicated Shopify developers must follow a structured hiring process to source the top talents. We will walk you through the necessary skills and interview questions to consider while assessing prospective candidates to ease the process.

Skills to look for in a Shopify developer?

Hiring a proficient developer takes more than just scanning through stacks of applications. At a high level, Shopify developers should have the following skills in their arsenal:

1. Detailed domain knowledge

A Shopify developer should have an in-depth knowledge of the domain to ensure smooth project delivery regardless of complexity and industry. This must be in the list of criteria for choosing a Shopify developer for your e-commerce website development project. You should look for a developer who is fully conversant with the Shopify platform and has enough experience in web development while hiring. By checking the experience and expertise of a Shopify developer, you can know whether they are a perfect fit for the project.

2. Proficiency and specialization in different fields

You can understand the depth of brilliance of a Shopify developer by knowing about their specialization in different Shopify services. Be it a third-party app integration, cart development, or anything else, a skilled developer should be able to handle these challenges with specialized knowledge of Shopify development. By choosing a developer with specialized knowledge over mere technical expertise, you can build robust and tailored e-commerce platforms.

3. Familiarity with diverse development environments

Top Shopify developers always take on an open, pragmatic approach to their craft. Frequently, new technological advancements in the industry can impact the way developers approach problems and deliver on their responsibilities. Designing a highly flexible and performant architecture that can adapt to changes in both environment and usability requirements is a must-have skill for a professional Shopify developer.

4. High-level problem-solving skills

A Shopify developer with excellent problem-solving skills can work on any challenging project efficiently. Shortlisting Shopify developers for hire with high problem-solving skills can help you build specialized solutions for your business. Day by day, e-commerce websites are becoming more and more sophisticated, so you need to choose a developer who can easily handle the latest challenges with platform development. A developer with excellent problem-solving skills can easily surmount hurdles and build complex solutions to meet your requirements.

5. Knowledge of version control

Another essential skill to look for when you hire dedicated Shopify developers is the knowledge of version control. The professional you hire will be working with a team of developers and other cross-functional teams. Along with other responsibilities, the developer has to ensure quality and scalability in version control that syncs well with other team members. Consider hiring candidates with an advanced level of understanding of version control concepts and experience with Git.

6. Solid back-end development skills

A Shopify developer with top-notch back-end development skills can solve complex issues with performant code and perform adequately with the team to deliver the best quality work. These developers deploy new code that leads to a massive production scale. They constantly enhance the codebase for a better outlook and collaborate with other developers and designers to develop creative, fast, and well-tested code using test-driven development.

7. Familiarity with database technologies

An essential skill for Shopify developers is having solid expertise in working with databases and performing operations like storing records, creating, inserting, updating, deleting, etc. Database technologies such as SQL, Oracle, PostgreSQL, MongoDB, Cassandra, Redis, etc., all come in handy when it comes to storing and managing the store/e-commerce information.

8. Communication skill

The success of your Shopify project depends largely on effective collaboration between teams. This makes it critical to hire dedicated Shopify developers with excellent communication skills to ensure seamless project development and quick resolution of problems.

Create a hiring funnel

Creating a hiring funnel offers several benefits, like assisting you in selecting the top skills and identifying a Shopify developer who will fit into your company's culture. Recruiters widely use this approach to shortlist the best applications and adequately vet suitable candidates.

Top interview questions to hire a Shopify developer

To get an overview of the candidate’s practical architectural skills and gauge the level of expertise, here are lists of possible questions to ask while conducting an interview.

Nowadays, an essential skill of every developer is to know basic SEO. This is no exception for the Shopify developers as well. By being SEO-familiar, the Shopify developer will build an SEO-friendly ecommerce store that the target audience can easily find on the internet. Take note of the answer, including several SEO tactics, both tech, and content, along with other strategies to attract organic traffic.

As a good developer, delivering exceptional experiences to users should be a top focus. From the candidate’s answer, you can decipher where their focus lies, either in the online presence regarding the shopping or paying more attention to the fundamentals like differences in currencies or languages. These small things turn out to be very critical aspects of the development process.

There are plenty of transactions taking place over mobile devices, and hence the top focus should be on creating convenient and secure mobile sites. A professional Shopify developer will endeavor to make the Shopify presence available in every possible way while paying attention to the checking-out speed on the device. You should listen to how the candidate answers and outlines the processes.

Asking about Agile development will give you an idea of how much the candidate knows about general software development and paradigms. The answer may resemble this - The agile development process focuses on an incremental delivery by the team as a whole. It involves breaking down projects into small manageable chunks that can be completed within a given short time frame called sprint.

A well-suited answer to this question often comes down to identifying metrics to improve on and creating a testable hypothesis of the expected project impact. Some development best practices involve laying out the success metrics of a project before its commencement, as releasing high-quality software is vital, but products that don’t address the needs of the user and the business yield little to no value. The ability of a Shopify developer to think beyond the project’s technical aspects and aim to solve real-world problems is a highly desirable skill.
