The Challenge

More Engineers Should Not Mean More Risk

When capacity pressure rises, the wrong hiring path can create the same problems you were trying to solve.

01

You Cannot Scale Fast Enough

  • Engineers take 4–6 months to hire through traditional channels
  • Roadmap slipping while your team waits for headcount
  • Core team burning out from carrying the load

The Result: Feature delays, missed market windows, and overloaded senior engineers.

02

Delivery Is Becoming Less Predictable

  • Developers miss sprint commitments consistently
  • Bugs pile up. Velocity is sluggish and unpredictable
  • No reliable throughput or definition of done

The Result: Stakeholder frustration, quality issues, and roadmap credibility loss.

03

Turnover Keeps Resetting Context

  • Developers rotate too often — knowledge walks out the door
  • Quality fluctuates, rework increases costs
  • New engineers repeat mistakes that were already solved

The Result: You are not compounding knowledge. You are restarting it.

04

Everyone Sounds the Same

  • “Affordable global talent” has become white noise
  • No real differentiation between vendors — just promises
  • You’ve been burned before and don’t know who to trust

The Result: Evaluation drag, vendor fatigue, and delayed hiring decisions.

Success Story

Covalent Networks Builds High-Performing Team with TechKraft

Covalent’s engineering team was dispersed across vendors with low accountability and no shared culture. The CTO needed engineers who took ownership — not contractors who delivered tickets.

TechKraft embedded a fully compliant ODC in Nepal with top-tier Ruby developers who integrated deeply into the Covalent workflow. The team scaled from 1 engineer to 10+ full-time equivalents in 12 months with zero recruitment overhead.

"Working with them feels like an extension of our own company — they engage deeply, communicate clearly, and take ownership of outcomes."

Common Questions

What You Are Probably Wondering

Most engineers are onboarded and contributing within 2–3 weeks of requirement sign-off.

The timeline depends on role complexity, seniority, stack, interview availability, and how quickly final selection is made.

We have a clear replacement protocol. If within the 90-day probation period the engineer isn’t meeting expectations, we replace them at no additional cost.

You flag the issue, we act on it, typically within 1–2 weeks for a new match.

You interview shortlisted candidates directly. Final selection stays with you.
