Hire Groovy developer

When you Hire Groovy developer talent directly, you absorb recruiter commissions, job-board spend, immigration paperwork, equipment, taxes and long onboarding. Our augmentation model bundles all of that into a single hourly rate. You pay only for productive engineering time—no bench fees. Clients typically save 25–40 % versus the fully-loaded cost of a U.S. employee, and because our talent pool is already screened, you eliminate the costly risk of a bad hire. Additionally, lack of long-term commitments means capital is preserved for product growth rather than fixed overhead. The end-to-end transparency of our invoices makes CFO sign-off painless.

Every engineer signs a strict NDA plus an IP transfer agreement vetted by U.S. counsel before touching a single repo. smartbrain.io maintains SOC-2–aligned controls: encrypted devices, mandatory MFA, VPN-only access and audit logs for every repository action. You also retain full admin rights in Git, Jira and CI tools, so permissions can be revoked instantly. Finally, we are incorporated in Delaware and subject to U.S. jurisdiction, giving you legal recourse rarely available with freelance marketplaces.

Yes. Our network spans North America, LATAM and EMEA. During discovery we ask for overlap requirements and shortlist only those Groovy engineers who can guarantee at least four hours of real-time collaboration with your core team. For mission-critical 24/7 support, we can create a follow-the-sun pod that hands off seamlessly across regions.

Contracts are month-to-month with a two-week termination notice—ideal for agile roadmaps. Need to pause work for a funding round? Simply give notice and no further invoices accrue. Extensions are handled under the same MSA, keeping paperwork minimal.

Each candidate passes a four-step screen: English interview, coding challenge covering Groovy, Java and Spock tests, architecture interview with a senior Groovy engineer, and final cultural fit call. Historically, only 3 % make the talent cloud, ensuring you meet true experts, not resumes padded with buzzwords.

Our replacement guarantee covers the first 30 days. Notify your account manager, and we will present alternative profiles within 48 hours at no extra cost. The replacement overlaps one week to transfer knowledge, so sprint velocity remains intact.

Most clients schedule first interviews within 24 hours of the discovery call and sign the MSA shortly after. Average kickoff—when the Groovy developer has repo access and starts the first ticket—is 48 hours. Enterprise procurement cycles can extend this, but our legal and finance teams are accustomed to rapid redlining.
