At Shopify, we have moved to Docker for deploying our main product. Primary advantages for us are faster deploys, because we can do part of the old deploy process as part of the container build. Secondly: easier scalability, because we can add additional containers to have more app servers or job workers.

- MattyMc 12y agowvanbergen, forgive me for veering off topic. I'm planning on applying to Shopify (Toronto) as a software developer before the end of the weekend. Any advice you're willing to share?
- wvanbergen 12y agoMattyMc: sure. Primarily: be yourself, show what you are passionate about, and be willing to adopt change. When applying: cover letter > resumé, and try to stand out because we get many applications. Email me at willem at shopify dot com if you have any specific questions.
