Our Process
How We Hire & Onboard Engineers in Under 48 Hours
Simple. Seamless. Streamlined. The EnygmaLab hiring and onboarding process is refined so you can focus on building, not recruiting.
Discovery & Requirements
We kick off with a focused 30-minute discovery call to understand your product roadmap, technical stack, team culture, and hiring urgency. We ask the right questions upfront — seniority level, timezone requirements, domain expertise, soft-skill fit — so every candidate we source is already qualified before you see them. No generic job posts, no volume play.
Rigorous Talent Matching
Our talent team searches our pre-vetted network of 500+ senior LatAm engineers — filtered by your exact stack, domain, and team culture. Every candidate on our shortlist has passed a multi-stage evaluation: a live coding challenge, a system design interview, an English proficiency assessment, and a soft-skills interview. Only the top 3% make it this far.
Client Interviews & Selection
We present a curated shortlist of 2–4 candidates — typically within 24–48 hours of your discovery call. You run your own technical interviews and make the final call. There is no pressure, no hard sell. If none of the first batch is the right fit, we keep searching at no additional cost until you find your engineer.
Rapid Onboarding
Once you select your engineer, we handle everything: contracts, compliance, payroll, equipment provisioning, and NDA setup. Your new team member is fully onboarded, has access to your tools and repositories, and is ready to push their first commit in under 48 hours. No HR overhead, no legal complexity on your end.
Continuous Delivery & Support
Placement is the beginning, not the end. Your dedicated EnygmaLab Delivery Manager checks in weekly, tracks sprint velocity, and resolves any friction — whether technical, communication, or operational. We monitor performance proactively, so small issues get addressed before they become blockers. Most of our client relationships last 18+ months.
Common Questions
How quickly can I get an engineer?
Most clients have a shortlist of vetted candidates within 24–48 hours of the discovery call. Once you select your engineer, onboarding completes in under 48 hours — so you can be shipping within the same week.
What is the difference between staff augmentation and outsourcing?
With staff augmentation, the engineer works directly within your team — attending your standups, using your tools, reporting to your leads. Outsourcing hands off a project to an external team. EnygmaLab does the former: your team, extended.
What if the engineer is not the right fit?
We offer a risk-free replacement guarantee. If the engineer is not working out within the first two weeks, we find a replacement at no additional cost. Our average time-to-replacement is under 5 business days.
What time zones do your engineers work in?
All EnygmaLab engineers are based in Latin America and work in EST or PST — fully overlapping with US and Canadian business hours. Real-time collaboration, no async delays.
