Hire dedicated developers FAQs
Anything not covered here, ask on the call.
How much does it cost to hire dedicated developers?
Mid-level developers start from $1,799 a month, senior developers from $2,499 and tech leads from $3,499, full-time and dedicated, 160 hours a month.
How fast can a developer start?
Matched profiles arrive within 48 hours of the call. After you interview and choose, onboarding takes about a week, so most developers make their first commit around two weeks after the first call.
Can we interview the developers first?
Yes. You interview every shortlisted developer yourself, on your schedule, and you can add your own coding test. Nobody joins until you choose them. More answers on hiring are on our FAQ page.
What happens if a developer is not the right fit?
Tell us and we share new profiles. You interview the replacement the same way. We usually need one to two weeks' notice for a change.
Do dedicated developers work in our time zone?
For US clients the standard overlap is 4 to 6 hours of the US working day. For UK and European clients the overlap covers most of the working day.
Who owns the code and IP?
You do, from the first commit. IP assignment is written into the master service agreement, and NDAs are standard.
Are the developers employees or freelancers?
Employees. Every developer is a salaried engineer on the ScalaCode payroll, led from our head office in Noida. We do not use freelancers or subcontractors. Our Why ScalaCode page covers how we hire them.
Your engineers work in your hours
Timezone overlap is built in. Your matched engineers keep 4 to 6 hours of daily overlap with US hours and a full working day with the UK, Europe and the Middle East, so standups, reviews and fixes land during your working day.
They delivered on time and even offered ideas I hadn't considered. Their proactive input and execution exceeded my expectations.
