Frequently Asked Questions

What is IT staff augmentation?

IT staff augmentation is a flexible hiring model where you embed vetted external engineers into your in‑house team to plug skill gaps or handle peak workloads without adding permanent headcount. You keep day‑to‑day control, they follow your tools and rituals, and the contract ends when the backlog is cleared.

How does staff augmentation differ from outsourcing or managed services?

Staff augmentation vs outsourcing vs managed services boils down to control and scope. With staff augmentation you add individual engineers to your Slack and sprint board, staying in charge of daily decisions. Outsourcing hands both delivery and project management to a vendor, while managed services layer on a long‑term SLA for upkeep and support.

When should I use IT staff augmentation?

Knowing when to use staff augmentation boils down to three triggers: looming release deadlines, niche expertise gaps, or workload spikes lasting a few quarters. Pre‑vetted engineers join within days, shrinking hire time by roughly 70 % while you retain product control and dodge long‑term payroll commitments.

How much does IT staff augmentation cost?

IT staff augmentation cost equals engineer salary plus a vendor fee. For Eastern‑EU seniors expect $40–65 per hour, mids start near $30. Pricing models for staff augmentation are usually a flat monthly mark‑up (10–25 %) or a transparent fixed fee per developer, with zero recruitment or benefit overhead.

What pricing models do you offer?

Our pricing models for staff augmentation are simple: 1) Transparent pass‑through salary — you set the engineer’s pay and we add a fixed 15 % operations fee; 2) All‑inclusive monthly rate covering salary, taxes, equipment, and retention perks. No onboarding charges, no minimum term, and you can switch models any time.

What is the Ptolemay staff augmentation process?

Ptolemay’s staff augmentation process finishes in four days. Day 0: a 15‑minute discovery call locks role, budget, and tech stack. Day 1‑2: our AI engine curates a shortlist, so you can hire developers in 48 hours. Day 3: one‑ or two‑round interviews. Day 4: contract signed, laptop shipped, sprint planning starts.

How do you vet and match developers?

AI vetting kicks things off, ranking each candidate’s hard skills against your tech stack and filtering out 80 % of applicants. Senior engineers then run live code reviews, followed by a culture‑fit call with your team. This three‑layer matching engine delivers an 82 % first‑round approval rate, slashing onboarding friction.

Which roles can I staff right now?

You can hire dedicated developers in almost every core stack today: senior mobile engineers (iOS, Android, Flutter), React or Angular front‑end specialists, backend pros in Node, Java, .NET, Python, battle‑tested DevOps/SREs, plus QA automation and data‑AI talent. All profiles are pre‑vetted and can start within 48 hours.

Is it hard to hire software developers?

Hiring software developers can be challenging due to high demand and competition for top talent. However, outstaffing simplifies this process by providing pre-screened candidates within 48 hours. For instance, our clients save an average of 3–4 weeks per hire by using dedicated outstaffing services.

What are the key benefits of IT outstaffing?

IT outstaffing provides flexibility, cost efficiency, and fast access to skilled developers without the overhead of full-time hiring. It allows startups to scale teams quickly while maintaining full project control. For example, outstaffing reduces hiring costs by 30–50% compared to in-house recruitment.
