Hire Java developer

In-house recruiting involves agency commissions, job-board fees, HR overhead, relocation, payroll tax, benefits, and the hidden cost of slow delivery while positions stay vacant. With smartbrain.io you pay a transparent hourly or monthly rate that already includes sourcing, vetting, local employment taxes, health insurance, equipment, and continuous professional development. For many U.S. clients the total annualised cost to Hire Java developer via our outstaffing model is 30-50 % lower than a W-2 hire of similar seniority, and—critically—you begin receiving productive code in days, not months. Plus, our no-fee replacement guarantee removes risk that traditional hiring cannot eliminate.

Every engineer signs a stringent NDA and PII policy before seeing a line of your code. We establish VPN-only access, enforce device encryption, and enable SSO with granular privileges. Our contracts assign all work product—including source, binaries, and documentation—to your company from day one. Regular security audits, ISO-27001–aligned policies, and on-staff compliance officers ensure your patents and trade secrets remain fully protected throughout and after the engagement.

Absolutely. We maintain talent hubs across North & South America, Europe, and Asia-Pacific so that you always have at least four hours of real-time overlap with your core team. Developers adopt your sprint ceremonies—daily stand-ups, planning, demos—and communicate through your Slack, JIRA, or Azure Boards. For around-the-clock coverage we can orchestrate a ‘follow-the-sun’ model enabling 24-hour throughput on critical issues.

Engagements start at a one-month minimum with simple monthly invoicing. Scale headcount up or down with 14-day notice, no long-term lock-in or buy-out fees. You can convert an engineer to full-time employment after six months for a modest conversion fee, making the model flexible for both transient spikes and permanent team expansion.

We screen fewer than 3 % of applicants. Each candidate completes: 1) automated coding challenges covering algorithms and Java 17 features; 2) live pair-programming with a senior architect on real-world tickets; 3) system-design interview; 4) English-fluency and culture-fit assessment; and 5) reference checks. Only then are they eligible for your shortlist, ensuring you interview only pre-validated experts.

We stand behind a 2-week replacement guarantee. If performance or fit is off, we provide a replacement—usually within 48 hours—at no additional cost, ensuring uninterrupted delivery.

After you sign the simple MSA and a brief onboarding call, developers typically gain repo access within the same business day and deliver their first pull request inside week one, thanks to prior familiarisation with your tech stack gathered during the interview phase.
