Who hires us

Built for the way your team buys.

We've shaped this practice around the patterns we see most — match yours against the list.

  • Scale-ups & growth-stage SaaS

    Series A–C teams that need senior engineers faster than direct hiring can deliver — especially in BFSI, AI/ML and mobile.

  • BFSI enterprises

    Banks, insurers and lending platforms that need regulator-aware engineering specialists across multiple time zones.

  • Mid-market software companies

    Established product teams adding burst capacity for a specific roadmap quarter or a parallel workstream.

  • Innovation & R&D teams

    Enterprise innovation groups running short pilots that need senior talent without permanent headcount overhead.

  • Multi-region enterprises

    Global organisations that need engineers in specific geographies (Africa, MEA, Asia) for local-presence requirements.

  • PE / VC portfolio companies

    Investor-backed companies executing on a 100-day plan that needs engineering capacity before the board meeting.

Service overview

In depth — how this practice runs.

The long-form view of what we build, how we sequence it, and the stacks we run.

When in-house hiring is too slow

Your roadmap is real. Your hiring funnel is not. Staff augmentation is how mature engineering organizations extend bandwidth without compromising standards.

How we do it

  • We screen for senior engineers, architects, QA leads, SREs, mobile and CRM specialists.
  • Every candidate is technical-interviewed by Redian principals before you ever speak to them.
  • You interview the final shortlist; you make the call.
  • Engineers join under your processes, your ceremonies and your code review bar.

What you get

  • Time zone overlap with India, Kenya and the UAE — pick what works for you.
  • Two-week ramp, two-week notice — no annual contracts.
  • Backfills inside two weeks if a teammate isn't working out.

Roles we place often

Java/Spring backend, Node.js + TypeScript, Python/Django, React / Next.js, Mobile (Android/iOS/React Native), DevOps (AWS/GCP/Azure/Kubernetes), QA Automation, Salesforce/Zoho/Odoo/SuiteCRM consultants, Solution Architects.

Why Redian

What makes us different.

Independent reasons clients pick us over Big-4 firms, boutique agencies and offshore vendors.

  • Senior-only mix

    No bench-warmers and no 1-year-experience engineers labelled 'senior'. Our average engineer has 8+ years of production experience.

  • Vetted by delivery principals

    Three-stage technical screening (coding, system design, domain) signed off by our delivery principals — not a recruiter.

  • BFSI heritage since 2016

    Regulator-aware engineers who have shipped in banking, insurance and lending — not generalists learning on your dime.

  • No lock-in, no annual contracts

    Two-week notice in either direction after the first 3 months. You scale up or down based on real demand, not contract terms.

Frequently asked questions

Everything you wanted to ask before the first call.

Don't see your question? Ask us directly →

How fast can you place engineers on our team?

Standard ramp is 2 weeks from brief to placed engineer. For common roles (Java/Spring, Node.js, React, DevOps) we have pre-vetted candidates ready to interview within 48 hours. Niche roles (specific BFSI domains, ML specialisations) typically take 3–4 weeks.

What's the minimum engagement and notice period?

Minimum 3-month engagement per engineer, then 2-week notice either direction. No annual contracts, no lock-in. Many of our clients run the same engineers for 2+ years — by choice, not contract.

Are engineers dedicated to us or shared across clients?

Engineers are 100% dedicated to one client. Time, focus, attendance and ceremonies are all yours. Our delivery lead may oversee multiple clients, but the engineers building your product are exclusively on your team.

How do you vet candidates?

Three-stage technical screening before you ever see a CV — coding exercise, system design conversation, and a domain-specific round (BFSI, AI/ML, etc.). Our delivery principals personally sign off on every senior placement. You then run your own final interview.

What happens if a placement isn't working out?

Two-week replacement guarantee. If an engineer doesn't fit your team within the first 30 days, we replace at no cost and absorb the ramp-up time. Past that window, normal 2-week notice applies in either direction.

What time zones can you cover?

India (IST · overlaps with Europe and Middle East), Kenya (EAT · overlaps with Europe and Middle East), UAE (GST · overlaps with Europe), USA Atlanta (EST · overlaps with Americas), UK (GMT). Mix-and-match by engineer to get the overlap your team needs.

Is this cheaper than hiring direct?

Typically yes — we eliminate the 90-day hiring cycle, benefits overhead, payroll admin and the cost of bad hires. But the bigger win is speed-to-delivery and flexibility (scale up or down on 2-week notice). Most clients run a mix of direct hires and Redian engineers.

Do engineers join our standups, Jira and code review?

Yes. Engineers join your standups, your Jira, your Slack, your code-review gates and your release cadence. They behave exactly like your in-house engineers — because that's the point. The only difference is HR and continuity sit with us.
