Hire BigCommerce developers in India, without opening an entity
Running a BigCommerce store that needs steady development? Kaamwork’s Tech EOR platform and local HR support let you build a full-time BigCommerce team in India overnight. You own hiring, salaries, and day-to-day management. We handle payroll, compliance, and retention.
How to hire BigCommerce developers
in India
BigCommerce suits growing and B2B stores that want flexibility without managing servers. But custom themes, apps, checkout changes, and ERP integrations still need a developer, and that work does not stop after launch.
So merchants that hire BigCommerce developers full-time get someone who knows the store, ships changes weekly, and does not need re-briefing every time. Kaamwork makes that possible in India without a legal entity or a local recruiting team. Your dedicated BigCommerce developer works as your employee, and typically costs around a third of an equivalent US salary.
When you hire BigCommerce developers in India through Kaamwork, you get:
Engineers across Stencil, Catalyst, and the BigCommerce APIs
Salary savings of up to 65% compared with an equivalent hire in the US
Time zone overlap arranged around your working hours, not against them
Scale from one dedicated BigCommerce developer to a full team
Full-time employees who work as an extension of your team, not a vendor bench

A BigCommerce developer builds and maintains BigCommerce stores: Stencil themes, custom apps, integrations, and headless storefronts. Here is what a full-time BigCommerce developer on a Kaamwork team typically owns.

Deepest talent pool
India produces the highest number of STEM graduates each year, and a young, remote-ready workforce building e-commerce stores for merchants worldwide.
Material savings

Risk, handled

BigCommerce developer cost to hire
How much does it cost to hire a BigCommerce developer in India? With Kaamwork, you pay the developer’s salary plus a flat monthly EOR fee. No entity, no setup bill.
Here is how that compares with opening your own Indian entity. Salary depends on seniority and skill set (theme work vs. apps vs. headless builds), so talk to us for a benchmark on your specific role.
Add-ons such as laptops, medical insurance, benefits, offsites, and detailed background checks are charged at actual cost, with no markup, on top of salary and the monthly fee.
