Shopify is growing in a big way.
The leading multi-channel commerce platform has some big plans to grow right here in the Waterloo region.
The company announced Thursday morning that it plans to triple its workers here for a second spot in Uptown Waterloo.
Shopify says it will hire 300 to 500 workers over the next few years.
The new jobs in Waterloo will focus on growing Shopify Plus.
Loren Padelford, General Manager and Vice President of Shopify Plus says the decision to build Shopify’s presence in Waterloo was based on knowing that the company would be supported by the tech community in the region. “By continuing to invest in the region, we are helping build a stronger ecosystem, one that employs great local people, and also brings new talent to the region.”
Shopify will be hiring for jobs in engineering, product, UX, sales, and merchant services will range from entry-level to senior manager-level.
