Cloud, DevOps and SRE staffing questions
Which clouds and tools do you cover?
We recruit for AWS, Azure and GCP environments, along with Kubernetes, Terraform, CI/CD and observability tools. Tell us which tools the role will use and what the consultant needs to own.
Can you staff remote, hybrid and on-site roles?
Yes. We scope the search around your location and work arrangement, whether the role is remote, hybrid or on-site.
How do contract length and contract-to-hire conversion work?
Contract length depends on the work and your staffing needs. For contract-to-hire, we agree on the terms before the engagement begins so you know how a later conversion would work.
Do I need a finished job description?
No. A short summary of the role, your environment and the work you need done is enough to start the conversation.
How fast are first submittals?
First submittals are within 48 hours. The scope call helps us focus the search on the experience your role requires.
Do you also staff cloud security roles?
Yes. We recruit cloud security engineers, including the cloud security roles listed on this page. Share the platforms, responsibilities and security requirements that should guide the search.
