Magento / Adobe Commerce
Also written as Magento, Magento 2, Adobe Commerce
An open-source PHP e-commerce platform, now sold by Adobe as Adobe Commerce, used for large and complex online stores. Powerful but heavy: it takes specialist developers to customise and keep fast.
Think of it like
A build-your-own department store: anything is possible, but you need a skilled crew to run and extend it.
Junior or senior?
A niche skill, and Magento 2 is very different from Magento 1.
Senior sounds like
Has built custom modules and handled upgrades or performance tuning on a live store.
Ask them
“Have you worked on Magento 1 or Magento 2, and what custom module did you build?”
