Hire a Shopify Developer in Australia
Most "custom" Shopify work on the marketplace is a modified free theme. I build from Dawn or ship a headless Hydrogen storefront, customise checkout with extensions, and instrument analytics so you can see what moves AOV.

Frequently asked questions — Shopify in Australia
How does timezone work with Australia?
I overlap with AEST/AEDT mornings (your 10am-2pm is my 5:30am-9:30am IST) for standups, code reviews, and synchronous planning. Everything else is async.
Do you work with Australian e-commerce brands on Shopify?
Yes. Most AU Shopify work is multi-currency with Shopify Markets (AUD / USD / NZD). I handle Stripe / Shopify Payments, GST-compliant invoicing on the merchant side, and Afterpay / Zip / Klarna integrations.
Can you work with Australian early-stage startups?
Absolutely. Fractional engineering retainers (10-30 hours/week) are available for funded pre-seed and seed-stage Australian startups — a fraction of the cost of a Sydney-based senior.
Do you work with clients in India, the USA, and Australia?
Yes. I work with clients globally and have served teams across India, the USA, Australia, the UK, and Singapore. Indian clients are billed in INR; international clients are billed in USD (AUD on request).
How much does a custom SaaS or web app cost?
Custom web apps start at $10,000 for a focused MVP and scale with the feature set you choose on the quote estimator. Each additional feature (auth, payments, admin dashboard, real-time, etc.) adds $100. You get a full fixed quote before any work begins.
