    faster hiring and onboarding

    For CTOs and delivery managers, one wrong hire can jeopardize an entire release. In-house recruiting in the US and Europe often means long delays, high costs, and constant risk that projects slip, teams burn out, and knowledge gets lost.

    Long hiring cycles

    The global average time-to-hire is 38-44 days, but in tech it often stretches to 12-16 weeks. By the time someone signs, your roadmap is already off track.

    High costs

    Hiring one developer costs around $4,700 in recruitment alone. Add training and turnover, and companies overspend 40-70% more than planned.

    Risk of project delays

    Every open position costs $5K-15K a week in lost productivity. That translates to broken sprints, missed releases, and irritated stakeholders.

    How IT staff augmentation services solve these problems

    Our IT staff augmentation solution removes the bottlenecks. Instead of spinning your wheels in an endless hiring process, you can access the right people right here and now.

    FAQ

    What is IT staff augmentation?

    IT staff augmentation is when you employ external developers as part of the team, and they are working under your company while the vendor holds all the legal, financial and organizational responsibility.

    How does IT staff augmentation work?

    You tell us who you need and we send CVs within 2-3 days. You select the right candidates and they connect to your systems, processes and start working as part of your team. Not as an "external contractor" but as your own people.

    How much does IT staff augmentation cost in 2025?

    Usually 30-50% cheaper than hiring in the US or Western Europe. Cost depends on stack and level, but it's always fixed and transparent, with no "billing surprises."

    What are the benefits of IT staff augmentation?

    You quickly scale engineering capacity, connect rare skills, accelerate project delivery, reduce costs and get people who start delivering results in the first week. Our IT staff augmentation services provide the flexibility of developer hiring without the overhead.

    What are the risks of IT staff augmentation?

    Any developer who is not an employee brings risks to your security. If you work with a raw supplier, there will be problems. We cover these risks: we conduct selection, adaptation, and formalize everything according to SLA.

    What’s the difference between IT staff augmentation and outsourcing?

    With IT staff augmentation, you manage the people. They report to you. Outsourcing is when you hand a project and don’t control the team directly. The difference is how you manage it, and which flexibility you require.

    Can I scale my team up or down quickly?

    Yes, and quickly. We can add or remove developers in 1-2 weeks, flexibly without long processes and layoffs.
