When to Hire a Shopify Developer vs a Magento Developer

If you want to launch quickly, keep hosting and infrastructure fully managed, and rely on a mature app ecosystem for extending functionality, a dedicated Shopify developer is the right fit. Shopify handles hosting, security patching, and PCI compliance for you, which reduces ongoing maintenance overhead.

A Magento developer makes more sense if you need deep, code-level control over checkout, complex B2B logic, or highly customized backend workflows that go beyond what Shopify's app ecosystem comfortably supports, and you have the resources to manage self-hosted infrastructure.

Shopify developer interview questions.

Use these questions when evaluating Shopify developers — or let us handle the vetting.

Q1. What is the difference between Online Store 2.0 and older Shopify themes?

What to look for

Tests currency of knowledge — should mention sections everywhere and JSON templates

Q2. How do metafields work in Shopify, and when would you use them?

What to look for

Should describe extending the data model beyond default product/store fields

Q3. What is the difference between the Storefront API and the Admin API?

What to look for

Should explain customer-facing vs merchant-facing use cases

Q4. How do you optimize a slow Shopify theme?

What to look for

Look for image optimization, reducing app script bloat, and Liquid render efficiency

Q5. How would you approach building a custom Shopify app?

What to look for

Should mention App Bridge, OAuth, webhooks, and Shopify's app review requirements

Q6. What is checkout extensibility, and when is it needed?

What to look for

Tests Shopify Plus depth — should explain the move away from checkout.liquid

Q7. How would you migrate a store from Magento or WooCommerce to Shopify?

What to look for

Look for a plan covering data migration, SEO redirects, and theme rebuild
