Hi Hunters! 👋
I’m Alex, founder of Expert Remote. And I’d like to share my story.
I started as a freelance developer on Upwork in 2012. Then in 2014-2019, I ran my own IT agency. We helped dozens of startups build their engineering teams, and some even became unicorns. After our agency was acquired (we had 50+ devs) I worked on 3 startups as a co-founder. Suddenly, I was on the hiring side! What could go wrong, right? Well, I’ve still made a couple of common hiring mistakes, which cost me a lot of time, money, and headaches. 😆
Being a freelancer, an agency owner and a startup founder gave me some perspective. I realized “agency” and “freelance marketplace” models have too many flaws: often poor quality, slow time to hire, and unreasonably high costs. There should be a better way, right? 🤔
So, a year ago, I met with my former CTO (@alex_dyadischev), and we came up with a simple idea:
1. Source developers across different countries
2. Thoroughly verify their tech skills, communication skills, and English
3. Accept only top-1% of applicants to our elite talent pool
4. Build a platform that will allow startups to hire from this pool easily
What we’ve got today:
✅ 400+ vetted IT talents
✅ 30+ countries coverage
✅ 9 active clients
✅ Rates from $20/h
The process is simple:
1. Signup. And start browsing available IT talents immediately.
2. Interview within 24h. Select developers yourself or leave it to us. We’ll organize the interviews.
3. Hire in 2-3 days. With pre-screened candidates, it takes only 1-2 interviews to find a perfect match.
4. Ongoing support. You focus on building a product. We take care of payments, taxes, IP, etc.
5. Buy-out. After 1 year you can hire our developer in-house for just a “1-month gross salary” fee.
If you've had frustrating experiences with freelancers, expensive agencies, crowded job boards, and a hectic schedule full of interviews, you may find our platform useful. 🙈
But in the first place, we are looking forward and would very much appreciate your feedback on our platform, talent pool, business model, anything!
Thank you! ✌️
Alex
