Why outstaff instead of hiring in-house?
• Cost control: say goodbye to overtime, payroll tax and long notice periods.
• Speed: start a Calypso-ready Java sprint in 5 days instead of 12-week recruitment cycles.
• Quality: engineers are pre-vetted on Calypso APIs, STP workflows, J-Risk engine and Japanese regulatory reporting.
Outstaffing lets you scale up or down instantly, plug skill gaps during critical release windows and keep IP secured—while we handle compliance, equipment and HR. You get senior Java talent focused 100 % on your Calypso Derivatives Platform Customization goals without the hidden costs of direct employment.
