Two vetted engineers, in front of you in
Tell us the role. We send two engineers already screened by senior engineers - no CVs, no job boards. You interview who you like and hire who fits.
A real engineer on your team - we handle everything else.
Not a contractor. A full-time, dedicated engineer embedded in your team. You direct the work. We run the employment.
Dedicated & embedded
Works only for you - standups, Slack, sprints. In-house in every way but payroll.
One flat monthly fee
Salary, benefits, HR, retention - one predictable cost. No hidden extras.
Replace anytime
Not the right fit? Replaced at no cost. 30 days notice. No lock-in.
We keep them
HR, wellbeing, and L&D on our side means 97% stay 2+ years.
Hire the role you're missing.
Four steps. Seven days.
Tell us who you need
Role, stack, seniority. A short call or form.
We source & vet
Engineers vet engineers - live coding, CTO sign-off before you see anyone.
You pick
Two matched profiles with rates and test results. Interview and choose.
We handle the rest
Onboarding, payroll, HR, retention. Your engineer starts embedded.
Vetting
You see two people - not 200 CVs.
Engineers vet engineers
A senior engineer runs a live technical conversation on the candidate's real stack - not a recruiter with a keyword list.
Live coding, not take-homes
Real problems solved in front of an assessor, with anti-cheating checks. You see the actual results.
A full profile, not a résumé
Every candidate comes with a CV, interview summary, coding-test breakdown, and rate - you decide on evidence.
Every tab is a stage a candidate has to clear. Six of them, all run by our own internal engineers at Cloud Employee, before you see a name.
