Azure Staff Augmentation FAQ

What is the cost to hire Azure developers through smartbrain.io?

Pricing is simple: a transparent monthly rate that bundles salary, HR, local taxes, and our service fee. Because we operate in multiple talent markets, you can Hire Azure developer specialists from senior to principal level starting at roughly 40 % below typical US on-site rates. No setup costs, retainers, or long-term lock-ins—pay only while the engineer is on your project. We offer volume discounts for multi-seat teams and a seven-day risk-free trial so you can validate fit before committing budget. All invoices are issued in USD with Net-15 terms for corporate convenience.

How do you protect IP and security when working with remote Azure talent?

Every engagement begins with a mutual NDA and extends to project-specific confidentiality clauses in the MSA. All outstaffed engineers access code only through your VPN or bastion host, and we mandate enterprise-grade endpoint protection plus MFA on all accounts. Our vetting process includes background checks, and smartbrain.io is ISO-27001-aligned, giving you the same controls you would enforce for in-house staff. You retain full ownership of all deliverables, repositories, and data assets from day one.

Can I work with developers in my time zone?

Yes. Our network spans North America, Latin America, and EMEA, allowing you to Hire Azure developer talent that overlaps at least 4–6 business hours with your core team. For 24/7 operations we can staff follow-the-sun shifts so support, deployments, and monitoring never stop.

What is the average time to start after I sign the MSA?

On average, clients kick off within five business days. The sequence is straightforward: 48 hours for candidate shortlisting, 24–48 hours for interviews, and another 24 hours to issue the work order and provide system access. Our fastest launch to date was under 72 hours.

How thorough is your candidate vetting process?

Each Azure engineer passes a four-stage funnel: English and soft-skills screen, theory exam on cloud architecture, live coding in C#/Python, and a system-design interview that mirrors real-world Azure scenarios. Only 2 % reach our talent pool. You receive detailed scorecards plus GitHub repos for code review before interviewing.

What happens if an engineer is not a fit?

We provide a free and immediate replacement within 10 business days. If replacement isn’t viable, you can terminate with seven-day notice—no penalties. This guarantee de-risks your decision compared with hiring in-house, where replacement can take months and burn additional budget.

Why not hire in-house instead of outstaffing?

In-house hiring ties up HR bandwidth, incurs recruiter fees, and locks you into fixed salaries plus benefits—even when project demand dips. Outstaffing lets you scale head-count elastically, tap global Azure expertise, and redirect savings into innovation, not overhead. Many CTOs keep a strategic core team but augment with specialised remote engineers for spikes in workload or niche skills.
