You can build a full offshore development team in Pakistan for up to 75% less than the same team costs in the US, UK or EU. The idea is simple. Instead of filling one seat at a time, we help you stand up a dedicated, full-time team that works in your stack, uses your tools and keeps your hours. You employ them directly. We handle the sourcing, the vetting, and finding a replacement if someone doesn’t work out.
What an offshore team actually looks like
Most teams we build start with a couple of senior engineers and some mid-level developers, then add QA and DevOps as the roadmap grows. The size is up to you. We’ve set up small squads of four or five people, and we’ve also built a 30-plus engineer department for DTC Force and a 15-plus person team for Blue Equinox. In every case, the people were hired straight into the client’s business as their own staff, not billed through us as contractors.
Roles we hire for
Front-end, back-end and full-stack developers are the most common ask. We also place mobile engineers across iOS, Android, React Native and Flutter, DevOps and cloud people on AWS, GCP or Azure, QA and automation testers, data and AI/ML engineers, and team leads who can run the pod day to day so you’re not stuck managing every detail yourself.
What it costs
A Pakistan-based engineer usually runs somewhere between $1,500 and $4,000 a month, depending on seniority and how specialised the role is. That’s roughly 60 to 75% below an equivalent US salary. There are no retainers and no monthly platform fees. You pay each person’s salary, plus a one-time success fee of 15% of their first-year salary, and that fee is only invoiced 15 days after they’ve actually started.
Will the time zone work?
For most clients, yes. Pakistan lines up well with EU and Gulf hours, and there’s still a few hours of daily overlap with North America, which is enough for a live standup and some pairing time. We build teams for companies across North America, the EU, the Gulf and the UAE, and we pick people whose hours fit the way your team already works.
How we vet people
Every candidate goes through a five-point vetting framework our founder, Hassam Khan, put together. It looks at technical ability, communication, reliability, culture fit and English. By the time a shortlist reaches you, everyone on it has already cleared that bar, so you’re interviewing for fit instead of filtering out the obviously wrong ones.
How it works
Book a short discovery call and tell us what you need. You’ll have a shortlist of pre-vetted candidates within 48 hours, you interview on your own schedule, and you onboard whoever you pick. Every hire comes with a 30 to 90 day replacement guarantee, and most individual roles are filled in about two weeks. A full team comes together over a few of those cycles.
Frequently asked questions
It’s the difference between one contractor and a proper team. An offshore team is a group of full-time people, engineers plus QA, DevOps and a lead, hired into your company and scaled to your roadmap. We’ve built teams of 15 to 30-plus this way for clients like Blue Equinox and DTC Force.
Engineers typically run $1,500 to $4,000 a month depending on seniority, which is about 60 to 75% less than an equivalent US hire. There are no retainers or platform fees. You pay each salary plus a one-time 15% success fee on their first-year salary, invoiced 15 days after they start.
You’ll see a first shortlist inside 48 hours, and most individual roles are filled in roughly two weeks. A full multi-person team usually comes together over a few hiring cycles.
Every placement is covered by a 30 to 90 day replacement guarantee. If someone isn’t the right fit inside that window, we find you a replacement at no extra fee.
We build teams for companies across North America, the EU, the Gulf and the UAE, and we factor in time-zone overlap when we choose who to put in front of you.
