Hire Shopify Talent
Hire Shopify Developers, Designers and Teams
Add Shopify specialists to your team without the cost, delay or risk of a local hire. Choose the role, choose the commitment, and start inside a week.
Why Augment
Why Growing Brands Augment Instead of Hiring
Hiring a Shopify developer in the US takes roughly three to five months from job post to productive first week, and costs a salary plus benefits plus recruitment fees before a single line of Liquid gets written. For most brands, the work does not justify a permanent seat. It arrives in bursts: a replatform, a theme rebuild, a peak season, an integration that broke.
Speed
Scoping to kickoff in under a week. No job posts, no interview rounds, no notice period to wait out.
Cost
A dedicated Shopify specialist costs a fraction of a US salaried hire, with no benefits, equipment, payroll tax or recruiter commission attached.
Flexibility
Scale to three developers for a migration, back to one for maintenance. You are not carrying a team through quiet quarters.
Depth
You get an agency bench behind every individual. When your developer hits a Hydrogen question or a GraphQL rate limit, there is someone next to them who has already solved it.

Choose the Role You Need
Every role below can be engaged full-time, part-time or per project. Mix and match freely, most clients start with one and add a second within a quarter.
KolachiTech is a Shopify Partner agency that helps US brands hire Shopify developers, designers, and full teams on flexible terms. Whether you need a dedicated Shopify developer for a long-term roadmap, a Shopify store designer for a conversion-focused rebuild, or a full Shopify team for a migration, our vetted specialists work as an extension of your team — in your tools, in your time zone, and under your brand.
Our Shopify staff augmentation model is built for brands that need specialist depth without the cost and delay of a local hire. Every specialist we place is vetted by our senior team, works in your repository and admin, and can scale up or down with 30 days notice. No recruitment fees, no benefits, no annual lock-ins — just Shopify expertise when you need it, for as long as you need it.

Three Ways to Work With Us

From $800 / month
- 40 or 80 hours per month
- Prioritised task queue
- Unused hours roll over one month

Project-Based
Fixed scope, fixed price, fixed deadline. Best for migrations, rebuilds and anything with a clear finish line.

- 30 days post-launch support included
- Blended rate $25 to $45 per hour
A dedicated seat costs roughly a fifth of the loaded cost of a comparable US hire, with no recruitment fee, no benefits and no notice period. Most brands start on a part-time retainer and move to dedicated once the roadmap outgrows the hours. We will tell you honestly if a project quote serves you better than a monthly commitment.
