Most offshore hiring advice
is built around one thing: 

Saving Money

That’s why so many teams are scaling—and still stuck.

If you're leading a product or engineering team, you need to know:

  • Will they understand product context and contribute like an owner?

  • Can they integrate into our culture, comms, and cadence—without slowing the team down?

You’re not just hiring for capacity and budget. You’re hiring to protect your roadmap, your team, and your momentum.

This guide gives you the offshore model we’ve used to deliver over 3 million hours of clean, scalable code with 300+ full-time developers embedded in real engineering teams.

If you're tired of resume-padding, hand-holding, and offshore hires that quietly burn your team’s time, this guide is your reset button 👇🏼
