Two ways to hire. Transparent pricing.
Every software development role prices the same way. Both models carry the same bar: vetted candidates in 10 calendar days and 5-Stage Vetting. The guarantee differs by model: 60-day replacement on US Direct Hire, 100% performance replacement on Global Fully Managed.
Exceptional talent from Latin America, the Philippines, South Africa, Eastern Europe, and Canada, from $12/hr. One monthly fee, all-inclusive: sourcing, vetting, payroll, compliance, and ongoing support.
Explore global staffing →Full-time professionals across the United States, employed directly by you. One placement fee: from 12.5% of first-year salary, with the $995 retainer credited against it. Prefer nothing upfront? From 15%, paid only when you hire. Traditional agencies charge 20-30% of salary for the same search.

When work sits waiting for review
Most teams wait too long. These are the points where the seat pays for itself immediately.
- Work sits unreviewed for days.
- Setup consumes a new engineer's first sprint.
- You hired more and velocity stayed flat.
- Reviewers became the bottleneck.
- Environments differ between machines.
- Nobody sized the team against review capacity.
How our hiring process works
Fewer than 1% of applicants are presented. Every administrative candidate passes 5-Stage Vetting with AI-assisted screening, and you see vetted candidates in 10 calendar days.
AI-assisted screening
Every application is screened against the role's real requirements before a recruiter reviews it.
Skills assessment
Candidates prove the core skills the role needs through practical, job-specific tasks.
Communication and culture
We assess English fluency, communication, and fit for how your team actually works.
Background verification
Work history, credentials, and identity are verified before any candidate advances.
Reference checks
We speak to past managers to confirm performance before a candidate reaches you.
Where your developers work best
- Clearance or data residency rules apply
- The seat leads architecture for the team
- Customer facing work happens onsite
- Feature work happens in your repository
- Ticket queues are location independent
- Capacity for a release push is temporary
Both models carry the same vetting bar and the same guarantee. Pricing for each is above.
| Role / responsibility | Global | US direct hire | Why |
|---|---|---|---|
| Feature development | Global | Repository work, staffs globally | |
| Bug and ticket queue | Global | Location independent by nature | |
| Code review participation | Global | Timezone overlap matters most | |
| Release push capacity | Global | A temporary need, global suits it | |
| Architecture leadership | US direct hire | Usually kept as a domestic anchor | |
| Data residency restricted work | US direct hire | Policy may require a US seat | |
| Interface and experience design | Global | File based, staffs globally | |
| Machine learning model work | Global | US direct hire | Depends on your data residency rules |
One partner, onshore and global
A US office manager working alongside two fully managed global assistants is a Tuesday, not an exception. You pick the model per desk and we run both under one partner.

Administrative Support staffing, answered
What does an added engineering team own?
It is the product build team: front end, back end and full stack engineers working your sprints, plus the design and integration seats around them. They commit to your repository, follow your review standards and attend your ceremonies. The distinction that matters is direction, because your leads assign the work.
How many engineers should we add at once?
Fewer than you think, and the limit is your review bandwidth rather than your budget. Three engineers added to a single reviewer usually ship less than two would. We size the addition against how many people can review, and will say so on the call even when it means a smaller placement.
Can product engineers work remotely?
Yes, entirely, and this is where global talent is strongest. What actually decides whether it works is timezone overlap with your reviewers and your standups, not the engineer's location. We match on that overlap explicitly rather than assuming a few shared hours will be enough.
Will engineers work in our repository and tooling?
Yes. Engineers commit to your repository, follow your branch and review standards, and use your issue tracker and environments. Nothing routes through an account manager. Fluency is tested during vetting on a real code exercise in your stack rather than inferred from a list of languages on a resume.
How do you vet engineers?
5-Stage Vetting with AI-assisted screening, plus a code exercise in your stack and a review conversation about someone else's code, because reviewing well is what protects a team's throughput. Fewer than 1% of applicants are presented. We would rather send two engineers who review well than four who only write.
What does an engineer cost?
Global Fully Managed starts from $12/hr all-inclusive and runs month to month, with senior engineers quoted individually above that floor. US Direct Hire is $995 plus 12.5% of first-year salary, or 15% with nothing upfront, against the 20-30% most technical agencies charge.
Do they work only for us?
Yes. Engineers are dedicated to your team, pull from your board, and attend your ceremonies. They are not shared across clients and nothing routes through an account manager. That is the distinction between this and an agency arrangement, and it decides whether velocity actually moves.
What if we need to scale the team down?
Fully managed global seats run month to month, so a release push team can be released without severance exposure. US Direct Hires are your permanent employees and that decision is yours. We would rather you started smaller and added than hired four and released two.
