Senior engineers.
Same timezone.
Half the cost.
Connector places vetted talent from South Eastern Europe in Western product teams. CET hours, English and German speaking talent, one monthly invoice. First interviews within a week. Qualified by senior software engineers.
Your extended remote team.
Strong work ethic, German-speaking talent cultivated by large Swiss and German corporates. Change-making talent.
35–55% lower cost
Typical rates from €35/h (mid) to €78/h (senior full-stack), all-in. No recruiter fees, no employer taxes on your side, no office overhead.
Zero timezone gap
The Balkans run on CET. Your 9:30 standup is our 9:30 standup, code review lands before lunch.
One clean invoice
We employ locally and handle payroll, IP assignment and GDPR. You sign one B2B agreement and pay monthly.
Founder-involved
No faceless recruiters. A founder sits in every vetting session and stays on your account after day one.
Four ways to work with us.
Dedicated teams
A full team embedded in your workflow. Your Slack, your standups, your standards. For scale-ups that need to ship.
Individual hires
One specific person for one specific seat. Vetted by working engineers in the same stack, contributing from week one.
Outcome-based projects
Fixed scope, measurable result. We scope, build and deliver: data platforms, migrations, internal tools. Pay for the outcome, not the hours.
Hiring partner
White-label delivery for agencies and studios. Your brand, your client, our bench. Full transparency on the split.
Run your numbers.
Typical hourly ranges in your market next to Connector ranges. Indicative only; final rates depend on the skillset.
