Talmatic is not a freelance marketplace. Every offshore developer Talmatic places works exclusively inside your team, under your processes and your roadmap — the same as an in-house hire, minus the overhead.
40–60% cost saving vs UK or Western European hiring
40–60% saving
Talmatic clients hiring offshore developers from Eastern Europe report 40–60% cost savings versus equivalent in-house hires in the UK, Ireland, or Western Europe — including Talmatic’s management and compliance fees. A senior engineer costing 10,000–14,000 EUR/month all-in through a UK recruiter can be placed through Talmatic at 7,200–9,300 EUR/month, with all HR and legal covered. (Talmatic client data, 2025)
Pre-vetted engineers — not platform profiles
~30% pass vetting
Every offshore developer in Talmatic’s network has passed a multi-stage vetting process: technical assessment, English proficiency test, reference check, and a live coding or architecture review. Talmatic does not list unvetted candidates — the shortlist you receive contains engineers who have already met the bar.
Dedicated model — not freelance
14+ month avg engagement
Offshore developers placed by Talmatic work exclusively within your team. They attend your standups, follow your sprint cadence, and commit to your roadmap — materially different from a freelancer juggling multiple clients. The average Talmatic engagement lasts 14+ months, significantly above freelance platform averages.
Legal compliance and HR — fully managed
0 local entity needed
Talmatic handles employment documentation, IP ownership agreements, NDA execution, tax compliance, and payroll administration in the developer’s country. You receive a single service contract with defined deliverables, SLAs, and termination clauses — no local entity required on your side.
4-week risk-free trial with money-back guarantee
4 wk money-back
Every Talmatic offshore developer placement includes a 4-week trial. If you are not satisfied with the developer’s performance within those 4 weeks, you can discontinue at no cost. Talmatic provides a full money-back guarantee on the placement fee — regardless of technology stack or country.
Eastern European talent pool — 300,000+ engineers

How Talmatic vets offshore developers
Talmatic’s vetting process ensures every offshore developer placed meets the technical and professional bar required by EU and US technology companies. Only engineers who clear all four stages are presented to clients.
01
Stage 01Technical Assessment
~30% pass
Candidates complete a role-specific technical assessment covering language fundamentals, design patterns, and problem-solving under time constraints.
02
Stage 02English Proficiency Test

Written and spoken English is assessed separately. Talmatic requires a minimum B2 level for client-facing roles, and async-communication capability for the rest.
03
Stage 03Reference & Employment Check
Verified
Talmatic verifies prior employment claims, portfolio submissions, and references directly with former employers or project leads — filtering profile inflation.
04
Stage 04Live Technical Interview
Peer-level
Senior Talmatic engineers conduct a live coding or architecture review matched to your stack. This is not an HR screen — it is a peer-level technical evaluation.
When should I hire an offshore developer?
You can hire offshore software developers at any point during your project.
You have identified an IT skill gap
Maybe you already have a great team, but they don’t have the training needed to manage your next IT project. Or, perhaps, you’re embarking on a start-up and need a team to work quickly. No matter the circumstance, Talmatic will help you meet your labor needs immediately.
Your project is complicated
Whether you are undertaking a years long project or are planning a super complex short-term project, it is the perfect time to hire overseas developers. For example, projects like game development may need a team of offshore python programmers or a specialized, highly experienced developer.
Are you looking to launch an online store without the overhead cost of finding and hiring a professional? Talmatic makes it simple to hire offshore Magento developers with extensive PHP experience to help you design the competitive framework you need to drive profits and grow your customer base.
You need flexibility without the costs
The market moves fast, and adapting to keep ahead of the trends and accurately forecast your needs means you need flexibility. Outstaffing can also help if your project is progressing differently than projected, and you need to be able to change your staff quickly.
When you hire remote offshore developers, you can specify the exact amount of time you need without any of the usual paperwork or HR headaches. Often, outstaffing developers can also save about 60% in labor costs, meaning that it is accessible to onboard developers in a way that benefits your business.
