I had experience with Shopify a few years back - around the start of the pandemic in 2020, not quite so disastrous as it didn't go that far but basically after an initial recruiter phone screen I had a technical interview with one of their Data Scientists, the questions were very easy and I got the impression I was significantly more experienced than their interviewer.

After that I had a second phone screen with the same recruiter - which I suppose was some sort of behavioral interview? I failed because I got the rejection after that with no feedback. Looking back, I got the impression they already had someone in mind but needed to tick some boxes or something - like show they interviewed multiple people for the role.

Knowing a few people that do work at Shopify I get the impression they are very particular about their cultural fit so maybe that was it.
