Hire Dedicated E-commerce Developers

Full-time Magento, WooCommerce, and Shopify developers from $990/month. Pre-vetted, dedicated to your store, resumes in 48 hours.

Overview

E-commerce success depends on fast, reliable, conversion-optimized storefronts. GlobalEmployees connects you with dedicated developers who specialize in the platforms that power modern online retail — working full-time on your projects, in your time zone, while we handle everything else.

Why hire a dedicated remote e-commerce developer?

E-commerce development is not a one-time project — it requires ongoing customization, performance tuning, integration work, and iteration on the buying experience. A dedicated developer who knows your codebase, your catalog logic, and your business goals will always outperform a rotating cast of freelancers billing by the hour.

With GlobalEmployees, your developer works exclusively for you from $990/month all-inclusive, saving up to 70% compared to hiring locally in the US, where e-commerce developers typically earn $85,000–$130,000 per year plus benefits.

E-commerce roles you can hire

  • Magento Developers — Adobe Commerce / Magento 2 specialists for enterprise stores, custom modules, multi-store setups, and performance optimization ($990/mo)
  • WooCommerce Developers — WordPress-based stores with custom plugins, payment gateway integrations, and headless builds ($990/mo)
  • Shopify Developers — Shopify and Shopify Plus themes, custom apps, Liquid templating, and headless Hydrogen builds ($1,090/mo)

How much does it cost to hire an e-commerce developer?

Pricing starts at $990/month for Magento and WooCommerce developers, and $1,090/month for Shopify specialists. Every fee covers salary, payroll, HR, a dedicated workstation, office space, and your account manager.

In the United States, a mid-level e-commerce developer typically commands $85,000–$130,000 per year in base salary. Factor in benefits, equipment, and overhead and the true cost exceeds $110,000–$170,000. Hiring through GlobalEmployees brings that cost to $11,880–$13,080 per year — a 70%+ reduction.

Can the developer work with my existing codebase?

Absolutely. Your developer gets access to your repositories and tools from day one. They work directly in your codebase, attend your standups, and follow your workflows — just like an in-house team member.

You can add developers at any time. Many clients start with a single specialist and expand to a full squad as their store grows. Scale up or down with short notice, no long-term contracts required.
