Shopify Software Engineer interview questions

There is a 2 part interview: a Life Story interview and review of a technical project. The Life Story is a pleasant 1-on-1 with an intern recruiter (non-technical) where they assess if you fit the culture of the company. The technical project review, done a few weeks later, assesses how you can walk through a project you've created.
