Your questions, answered

We tried to cover your burning questions but if we've missed something, drop us a note.

How can I hire a good back-end developer?
Down Arrow

Know what good looks like. A great backend engineer will make sure your servers only do the job they should instead of running optimization pipelines for unused front-end code. In our experience, top engineering leaders look for expertise in a tech stack, an understanding of scalable architecture, and problem-solving abilities.

Each vetted G2i developer has a detailed technical profile where clients have exclusive access to past projects, coding samples and technical interview recordings. G2i clients rely on this information to get a deep dive on a developer's expertise and an understanding of their approach to solving real-world scenarios. With all that data upfront, engineering managers quickly figure out who is right for the final round.

How much does it cost to hire a back-end developer?
Down Arrow

G2i is a marketplace where developers set their own rates. We add our fee on top and present clients with a single, all-inclusive hourly fee to keep things simple.

Majority of our customers pay in the range of $60-140 per hour. Rates will vary depending on your geographic requirements and desired level of experience. Developers tend to make adjustments based on project scope, contract duration and market demand for back-end developers.

We believe that fair compensation leads to healthy and productive developers. So we will never ask developers to drop their rate unnecessarily. Instead, we share relevant marketplace data with our community so they can set rates that support their financial goals and enable their lifestyle.

How can I hire back-end developers?
Down Arrow

You can certainly find candidates on sites like Upwork and Fiverr or work through staffing agencies. However you'll still need to spend significant time screening, conducting technical assessments, and interviewing candidates over a few weeks.

G2i can speed up the hiring process and make sure you only speak to vetted and pre-qualified developers. We've honed our sourcing, vetting and technical assessment process over several years with the goal of accelerating time to value for our customers. As a result, most hiring managers are empowered to hire G2i developers based on their technical profile and one round of interviews.

Do I have to pay a deposit to talk to a G2i developer?
Down Arrow

No, this would be counterintuitive to our mission of connecting developers with great companies. Come meet our developers, no deposits. Just pay when you hire.

What happens if a developer we hired doesn’t work out?
Down Arrow

We offer a 40-hour trial period to help mitigate the risk. If a developer doesn't meet your standards during the trial period, we won't charge you. We'll also find a replacement to ensure your project is completed with minimal disruption.

How long does it usually take to get a developer started?
Down Arrow

A few factors can affect the process length, but generally it takes four to seven days to start working with your developer once you've selected the right person.

How do I manage remote developers?
Down Arrow

We believe the best way to communicate is openly and often. Our developers are flexible and will adopt to your team's style. Treat them like your own and have them join your stand ups. Don't forget to add them to your messaging and PM apps!
