◆ SHOPIFY RECRUITING

Hire Shopify developers

Senior Shopify developers, vetted for commerce skill and working style, shortlisted in days. You interview a curated 3–5, and you pay only when you hire.

◆ WHY MIR · HIRE

Why teams hire Shopify developers through us

Commerce, not just code

We vet Shopify developers who understand the store as a revenue engine — speed, checkout, conversion and merchant workflows — not just engineers who can edit a theme.

Custom and headless

From custom themes and private apps to headless Hydrogen storefronts, our candidates have shipped real Shopify builds against the Admin and Storefront APIs.

Pay only when you hire

Success-fee model: no retainer, no upfront cost. We earn only when you land a Shopify developer you keep.

◆ THE DIFFERENTIATOR

We assess fit, not just CVs

Every Shopify candidate is screened for skill and run through a structured work-style assessment — powered by JobCannon, our own live assessment platform (1,500+ skills, 2,500+ career profiles). You see how a person actually works and where they fit on your team, before you spend an interview slot on them. Fewer mis-hires, faster yes/no.

◆ FAQ

Questions founders ask

How fast can I get Shopify candidates?

Usually a shortlist of 3–5 vetted Shopify developers within a few business days. We respond within one business day of the brief with a plan.

Theme work or full app/headless?

Both. We scope the work on the brief call — custom theme, private/public app, Shopify Functions or headless Hydrogen — and shortlist accordingly.

Do candidates care about conversion and speed?

Yes — we vet for store performance, checkout and conversion impact, not just clean Liquid, plus a structured work-style assessment for team fit.

What does it cost?

Success fee — you pay only when you hire. No retainer, no charge for the shortlist or interviews. Exact fee confirmed on the first call.
