If I were to hire an external developer to customize my Salesforce org, how do they get access? Am I required to purchase an extra license just for them to do the initial setup, and make modifications every now and then?

1You can purchase one extra license and assign it to your active developer. – Tushar Sharma Mar 8 '18 at 16:50

3Ask your account executive about a Limited Login License, which allows only a few logins per month. They're less costly than normal licenses, with the obvious limitation that they can't log in more than a few times a month. – sfdcfox Mar 8 '18 at 17:21

If you are talking about Community/Portal users, then yes.
If you are talking about internal/platform users, then that's going to be tough. Actually, you're talking about a user who has to make configuration changes to your org, so that is, by definition, an internal user. You won't be able to buy a limited login internal license unless you have some serious spend with Salesforce.
I wish I had better news. You'll just have to deactivate another user while this contractor/consultant is working.
