Customer

Irish SaaS company faced a tech talent shortage. Talmatic got to know about their need and contacted them to offer Ruby on Rails staff augmentation. In close cooperation, we’ve successfully sourced and pre-screened a full-time remote workforce to help our clients complete their IT department and support their product development and operational goals.
Mustard Has Been Working on an Innovative Recruitment Solution
Mustard is an Ireland-based SaaS company that came up with the idea of an innovative hiring marketplace for top software developers. This marketplace should change the face of outsourcing in Europe and the whole world by connecting people searching for IT help directly with performers able to provide top-notch services in this field.
The recruitment software should pre-screen the candidates and give seekers the perfectly matching results. It started with the catalog of Java developers in Ireland but quickly expanded to other countries and was enriched with numerous specialists with niche skills. This growth required increasing the number of developers, working on the project. However, Mustard faced a severe talent shortage and realized the need for Ruby on Rails staff augmentation.
The Critical Staffing Gap Threatened Project’s Realization

As with any other project, the SaaS solution of Mustrad had its deadlines. In the circumstances of talent shortage, these deadlines were threatened. Talmatic reached out to them offering IT consulting and staff augmentation services. After the short round of interviews, Mustard’s founder decided that our services align well with their needs, and Talmatic was chosen as a partner to beat 3 main challenges within the project:
1.Source and pre-screen senior Ruby engineers. Mustard had precise requirements for the candidates’ qualifications, tech stack, and experience. In addition, the candidates should have joined the formed development crew, onboard, and start working as soon as possible. We were put into strict frames of time and requirements.
2.Manage contractor payroll. Offering all-covering IT outstaffing services, Talmatic takes responsibility for all the processes from initial interviews to payments, onboarding, and offboarding of candidates on the project. We covered all the administrative and organizational issues, including contractor payroll, while Mustard only paid for the hours worked at the rate outlined in the contract.
3.Provide urgent talent replacements. Despite the thorough recruitment process, the risk of talent replacement is still present. Talmatic is committed to controlling the work of the remote developers and replacing the workforce if needed within the timeframe outlined in the contract.
Talmatic Provided the Client With Top Software Engineers
The main reasons why Mustard has chosen Talmatic as an offshore Ruby on Rails developers provider were competitive prices within the client’s budget, excellent track record with engineers of the needed tech stack, and good value for money.
The experts from Talmatic sourced and pre-screened senior RoR engineers from our internal base to complement the existing client team. Throughout the partnership, Mustard conducted 7-10 interviews with the pre-screened candidates and has chosen 3 engineers full-time. In the whole cooperation, 2-5 employees from Talmatic were involved in the processes, making the Ruby on Rails staff augmentation process easy and smooth both for the client and contractor side.
Virtual meetings were the main method of communication between Talmatic and Mustard. Facilitated by experts, they covered the need for communication and ensured seamless cooperation. Thanks to proper communication all the difficulties were solved upfront, the remote talents shoved their best commitment and expertise over the long term, and the client’s expectations were managed and met.
