Does Shopify Hire From India?

Last updated on October 2, 2022 @ 5:25 am

Shopify is a Canadian e-commerce company headquartered in Ottawa, Ontario. It is also the name of its proprietary e-commerce platform for online stores and retail point-of-sale systems. Shopify offers online retailers a suite of services “including payments, marketing, shipping and customer engagement tools to simplify the process of running an online store for small merchants.

Shopify was founded in 2004 by Tobias Lütke, Daniel Weinand, and Scott Lake, three entrepreneurs who wanted to create a platform that would make it easy for people to create their own online stores. Shopify was launched in 2006. Since then, the company has grown to over 1,000 employees with offices in Ottawa, Toronto, Montreal, Waterloo and San Francisco.

PRO TIP: Shopify does not hire from India. This is because Shopify is not a registered company in India, and therefore cannot legally hire employees in India. Additionally, Shopify does not have any physical presence in India, so it would be difficult for Indian citizens to work for the company.

Shopify is a publicly traded company on the Toronto Stock Exchange (TSX:SH). In 2015, Shopify was ranked as the fastest growing company in Canada by Deloitte’s Fast 50 program. In 2016 and 2017, Shopify was ranked as one of Canada’s top 10 most innovative companies by Canadian Business magazine.

While Shopify is headquartered in Canada, the company does have employees located in India. In fact, Shopify has a number of employees located in Bangalore, India who work on the Shopify platform. So while Shopify does hire from India, it is not necessarily easy to get a job with the company if you are not already working in the tech industry.
