Context

Hiring senior backend engineers in Europe is expensive and time-consuming. High salaries, recruitment delays, and rigid hiring structures make it harder for startups and scaleups to manage budgets while maintaining strong engineering quality.

Who this is for

We work best with teams who treat software as an operating system for the business, not a one-off project.

Good fit

  • EU startups managing burn rate
  • Scaleups optimizing engineering costs
  • Founders replacing planned local hires
  • CTOs needing senior backend expertise quickly
  • Companies scaling without over-hiring

Not a fit

  • Companies with unlimited hiring budgets
  • Teams requiring only on-site engineers
  • Projects without backend complexity
  • Short-term backend tasks
  • Organizations not open to remote collaboration

The operating reality

Backend hiring costs are too high

Companies struggle with rising costs, long hiring cycles, and limited access to senior backend talent. Overpaying for local hires or delaying hiring decisions can slow product growth and create pressure on runway. Adjusting team size later becomes difficult, reducing flexibility.

How this is usually solved (and why it breaks)

Common approaches

  • Hiring expensive local backend engineers
  • Spending months on recruitment cycles
  • Overpaying due to limited talent availability
  • Committing to fixed long-term contracts
  • Delaying hiring due to budget concerns

Where it falls short

  • High and unsustainable engineering costs
  • Slow team expansion and delivery delays
  • Limited flexibility in scaling teams
  • Pressure on financial runway
  • Reduced ability to adapt to product changes
